📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Faith, Family, Hoops. Cowgirl basketball’s Amari Whiting grew up immersed in the sport, influenced by her father’s professional career in Italy and her family’s strong faith. After playing at BYU, she transferred to Oklahoma State, where she found a supportive environment and a coach who shared her values. Now, she is carving out her own identity, balancing her athletic pursuits with her faith and personal interests.

🔼 Change Of Plans. Cowboy tennis has cancelled today’s scheduled doubleheader against UT Arlington and Oral Roberts due to inclement weather. The Cowboys will play at Princeton on Friday.

🔼 Something To Prove. Oklahoma State’s men’s tennis team, led by head coach Dustin Taylor, is poised for a strong 2026 season. The team features a mix of experienced returning players, including senior Alessio Basile and juniors Derek Pham and Nicolas Kobelt, alongside promising newcomers like freshmen Charlie Valentine and Haydar Gokpinar, and transfer Aaron Williams.
