Lundegren
Upsets Top-Seed in NCAA Tournament Mar. 21, 2002 – Albany, N.Y. Cal State Fullerton senior Rowdy Lundegren has pulled off the first upset of the 2002 NCAA Wrestling Championships, defeating top-seeded Scott Justus of Virginia Tech, 14-7, in the 184-pound class in first round of the tournament on Thursday morning in Albany, NY. Lundegren, who had wrestled for the Titans in just one dual meet and one tournament this season after transferring in from Oklahoma at the semester, advances to face Wisconsin's Ralph DeNisco, a 4-0 winner over Portland State's Jeremy Wilson, in the second round later Thursday night. Lundegren finished fourth at this season's Pacific-10 Conference Championships to earn a berth to the NCAA Tournament. In the 165-pound weight class, Chris Carlino was defeated by 11th-seeded Doc Vecchio of Penn State, 4-2, and will now face Lehigh's Chris Vitale, who was seeded sixth in the weight class, in the consolation bracket.
