COLUMBIA, Mo. – The ninth-ranked University of Missouri wrestling program fell to No. 23 South Dakota State 21-12 Saturday inside Hearnes Center.
The Tigers won the highest-ranked matchup of the afternoon with No. 9 Allan Hart being No. 6 Clay Carlson 4-2 at 141 pounds. Hart moves to 2-0 against Carlson this season following a 2-0 win in their first meeting at the Southern Scuffle.
Missouri picked up four match wins in the dual. Redshirt freshman Noah Surtin started the dual off with a 6-0 shutout at 125 pounds. Following Hart, the Tigers got back-to-back wins from freshman Josh Edmond and junior Jarrett Jacques at 149 and 157 pounds, respectively.
The Jackrabbits picked up the final four match wins to put the dual out of reach.
Hear From Coach
"Allan Hart had a really good performance against [Carlson]," head coach Brian Smith said. "The last four, it was just not finishing takedowns. We had opportunities to score takedowns but just didn't get them. We just have to get back."
