Drop your legs back when they go in for the take down, push your chest into them. If you're still having problems, I would try and learn what's called a sacrifice throw. It's dangerous for wrestling, because if you miss it, you're in a very dangerous position, but if you can get it right, they end up on their backs and you're in a north-south mount.
And suko, triangles are illegal in wrestling, besides. You almost invariably pull triangles from your back. If you're on your back, you're probably close to getting pinned. I grappling you want to be on your back, in wresting, you want to be either on top, or on your belly.
Wrestling and grappling are very very different and require a completely different skill set. When I was in high school, I overheard the wrestling coach say that for getting out of sticky situations (a fight) wrestling was the best because most fights end up on the ground. I promptly challenged him to a grappling match. I was 135 runner with a 3rd degree blackbelt, he was a 210 pound former all American in wrestling. I submitted him in less than a minute. We then wrestled, he pinned me in less than a minute. They look similar, but fairly mutually exclusive.
