Cowboy Brew 6/4: And Another One

Hendrickson Earns Third National Award For Historic Season

Good morning Pokes. In case the Dez Bryant highlights from yesterday weren’t enough to get the juices flowing in the morning, we KNOW this one wake you right up!

What all do we have stirring in today’s Brew? Check it out below!

🏆 Our Leader
🤼 And Another One
⛳️. Welcome Home
🤠 And much more!

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Our Leader. Might need to expand that trophy case a little more for the OSU golf program.

The distinction marks the second time he has received the honor. He was named the coach of the year in 2018 and was a finalist for the award in 2016 and again in 2021.

🔼 And Another One. The storybook ending to Wyatt Hendrickson’s stellar senior season continues to garner recognition, as the OSU heavyweight has now been named as the first ever three-time recipient of the prestigious Schalles Award, awarded annually to the nation’s top pinner.

Hendrickson, who won the award in 2022 and 2023 while representing Air Force, will add this latest honor to the NCAA’s Most Dominant Wrestler award as well as the 2025 WIN Magazine/Culture House Dan Hodge Trophy.

On the year, Hendrickson’s dominant fifth-year senior campaign saw the Newton, Kansas native compile a 27-0 record with 13 pins, eight tech falls and a bonus-point percentage of 81.5.

In the postseason alone, Hendrickson flattened three of his four opponents at the Big 12 Championships, with two of those falls occurring in the first period. At the NCAA Championships, the Cowboy pinned three of five opponents, which included a first-period disposal of eventual fourth-place All-American Isaac Trumble of NC State.

🔼 Welcome Home. It’s been quite a week for OSU golf.

Young, a 2005 OSU graduate and one of the most decorated players in program history, previously coached the Cowgirls from 2008-11, guiding them to a Big 12 title and a pair of top-10 NCAA Championship finishes while coaching the program's first individual national champion. She went on to lead programs at Cal State Northridge (2011-12), Colorado State (2012-18), and Tulsa (2018-24) before rejoining OSU last summer as an assistant coach.

Prior to returning to Stillwater, Young revitalized the women's golf program at Tulsa, leading the Golden Hurricane to their first AAC championship in 2021 and back-to-back NCAA Championship berths in 2023 and 2024, their first since 2008. She was a national coach of the year finalist in 2023 and was twice named AAC Coach of the Year (2021 and 2024).

🎥 OSUMAX: CHASING MORE

OSU standout Brian Musau already has plenty of hardware resting on his mantle.
The two-time Big 12 Cross Country Champion and the 2025 NCAA Indoor
5000m champion is now chasing even more in Eugene.

Learn more about Musau, his road to Stillwater and what winning
the school's 199th individual NCAA title means to him.

🤔 POKES TRIVIA

Former OSU standout Andrew Heaney is now just three starts away from reaching 200 MLB starts in his 11 year big league career.

He would be just the third former Cowboy ever to reach that accomplishment. Can you name the other two former OSU legends to reach 200+ career MLB starts?
