TULSA- Jake Ferri saw his run at the 2023 NCAA Wrestling Championships come to an end on Thursday.
The graduate student battled in a pair of matches against top-10 competition, falling to the 10th seed Brandon Courtney of Arizona State by a 6-3 score and the seventh seeded Brandon Kaylor of Oregon State by an 11-6 margin.
Ferri, seeded 23rd in the tournament, faced Courtney in the opening round of the Championships. In a low-scoring contest, Ferri scrapped with the two-time All-American. Ferri earned a trio of escapes, one in each round against the Sun Devil, but a pair of takedowns, one in the first and another in the second proved to be just enough offense to edge the Golden Flash.
