ATH LETE OF THE WEEK
IOWA CITY (AP) - Jimmy Arias
posted an upset victory and top-ranked
Oklahoma State beat No. 2 Minnesota
20-17 Sunday in the championship of
the Cliff Keen NWCA National
Wrestling Duals.
The Cowboys (14-0) won their 59th
straight dual dating back to 1996 and
gave coach John Smith his 100th career
victory while winning the tournament
for the fifth time.
Oklahoma State -- which skipped the
tourney last year but won it in 1997,
1994, 1990 and 1989 - dominated the
lower weights and held on to beat the
defending champion Golden Gophers
(7-2) for the second time this season.
The Cowboys eked out a 21-17 deci-
sion at Minneapolis last Nov. 29.
"It was a good win for us. It was an
important win for us;" Smith said. "We
made some things happen. It's rewarding
to know we wrestled Minnesota and that
we beat Minnesota."
Minnesota coach J Robinson said his
team should have stopped the Cowboys.
"We've just got to hang on to the
things that we did well," Robinson said.
"We did good. It doesn't define who
wins the national tournament. It just tells
you where you are."
Oklahoma State completed a sweep of
the first five bouts after Arias upset No.
1-ranked Chad Kraft 3-2 at 157 pounds,
handing Kraft his first loss of the season
after 12 straight wins.
"There wasn't any particular strategy,"
Arias said. "I knew if I pulled off the
win, then basically it might put the meet
out of reach."
The victory avenged Kraft's 3-1 over-
time win in their first meeting and gave
the Cowboys a 16-0 lead following wins
by top-ranked Teague Moore at 125, No.
I-ranked Eric Guerrero at 133, Charles
Walker at 141 and Reggie Wright at 149.

Aussie Open produces near-upsets
MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) ---
Day l of the Australian Open turned
into a bleak procession of top players
leaving and teetering, starting with the
exits of No. 1 Marcelo Rios and
Wimbledon finalist Goran Ivanisevic.
Rios, a finalist a year ago, withdrew
late Monday after he was diagnosed
with a stress fracture in his back.
Doctors advised him to rest until
March, The Chilean, who held the top
ranking for six weeks last year, retired
during a tuneup tournament in
Auckland, New Zealand, last week in
the middle of his first-round match.

Swatting away pesky, giant flies
between wicked winners in the sum-
mer sun, No. I Lindsay Davenport
kicked off her bid for the Australian
Open title with a straight-sets victory
that Williams could only envy.
Davenport, surrounded by the grand
dames of the grand slams and knowing
that she's one of them at last, looked
every inch a champion in a 6-2, 6-2
romp over Spain's Gala Leon Garcia.
"I'm very confident on the court,"
Davenport said. "Confidence within
myself is more important than
installing fear in my opponent."
Venus Williams, the No. 5 seed,
looked more like a frightened rookie,,
dumping easy forehands into the net,
spraying unforced errors and strug-
gling in a nervous 3-6, 6-3, 9-7 victory.
over Croatian Silvija Talaja, ranked.
No. 82.
Two points from losing at love-30
and 4-5 on her serve in the third set,
Williams refused to yield.
"I had to say to myself, 'This is not
my fate. This is someone else's fate. I,
can't go out like this.' I had to hold my
serve. That was the only option avail-
able," Williams said.
