ST. LOUIS - The University of Oregon's Ryan Dunn kicked off action in the NCAA Wrestling Championships Thursday morning with a win at the Scottrade Center.

The 133-pound redshirt junior from Estacada, Ore., scored a 12-11 decision in his NCAA debut over Lock Haven's Billy Ashnaut.

After Ashnault got out to a 5-0 lead in the first period with a takedown and 3-point near-fall, Dunn responded with an escape and three takedowns to tie the score 7-7 at the end of the first period. After another escape point by Ashnault to start the second period, Dunn add two more takedowns to tie matters 11-11 at the end of the second period, then added an escape point to start the third period for the only point of the final stanza.

Ashnault, a freshman, fell to 12-16 on the season and was the Eastern Wrestling League runner-up. 

Next up Thursday evening for Dunn is his third match of the year vs. Oklahoma State's third seed Coleman Scott. Dunn upset the Poke junior, then ranked first nationally in Eugene at McArthur Court, 5-3, in mid-February. The returning NCAA runner-up Scott won the pair's first meeting in December's Reno Tournament of Champions with a 14-6 major decision.

Also Thursday afternoon, UO redshirt freshman heavyweight Charlie Alexander lost his NCAA opener, 3-0, to Virginia Millitary Institute's Joshua Wine. Alexander was taken down with approximately a minute left in the first period to go down, 2-0. The Central Point, Ore., product Alexander started down in the second period but never escaped. In the third period, Wine again started on top and never allowed Alexander to escape to get a riding time point.

Wine, a freshman, raised his record to 9-2, and was the Southern Conference champion two weeks ago. 

For Oregon, Dunn's win Thursday afternoon raised his record to 23-7 and tied him for the team lead in wins with Alexander (23-11).

The pair earned thier NCAA invitations thanks to their second- and fourth-place finishes in the Pac-10 Championships at McArthur Court in Eugene three weeks ago.

LAMAS DAUGHTER WILL WOO 'BACHELOR

LAMAS DAUGHTER WILL WOO 'BACHELOR

March 14, 2008 -- THE daughter of Hollywood heartbeaker Lorenzo Lamas will be among the 25 women hoping to land the star of the latest edition of "The Bachelor."

Shayne Lamas, 22, who has appeared on "General Hospital" and three unheard-of movies - most recently as "red bikini girl" in something called "Endless Bummer" - hopes to be the winner of the dating show, which this season will feature the first British bachelor, Matt Grant.

Lamas' dad has famously been accused of being a serial bed-hopper, especially during his days on "Falcon Crest." Recently, he was seen on TV's "Bold and the Beautiful," but has since appeared in at least three major motion pictures, including upcoming "30,000 Leagues Under the Sea."

"The Bachelor" has managed to hang on to a piece of ABC's primetime schedule for nearly seven years even though no bachelor has ever married the girl he chose at the end of the show.

"Bachelorette" Trista Rehn and fireman Ryan Sutter did get - and stay - married after the show, however.
