🎥 OSUMAX: COACH SPEAK

Two of our leaders jumped on the mic on Monday night to give us insight and updates on the Cowboys on the mat and Cowgirls on the court.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Dress To Impress. Look good, feel good, play good.

The OSU men’s squad is back on the court at GIA tonight on a very special night when the Cowboys host Coaches vs. Cancer night with the Horned Frogs of TCU visiting Stillwater. For the night, Orange & Black coaches will be dressed in suits and sneakers to support the cause.

TCU dropped two tough matches last week and fell from the national rankings, but have been among the polls for much of the season.

OSU is looking forward to being back at home after being on the road for three of the past four contests.

🔺 Men Of The Mat. With six of their eight wins coming against nationally-ranked opponents, it’s no surprise that the OSU wrestling squad is all over the first coaches poll of the season.

7️⃣ different Cowboys are ranked among the 10 different weight classes, including four in the top-seven, led by Dustin Plott at 184 being ranked #2 nationally.

Also ranked are Troy Spratley (125 - No. 15), Tagen Jamison (141 - No. 6), Jordan Williams (149 - No. 18), Izzak Olejnik (165 - No. 4), Brayden Thompson (174 - No. 24) and Konner Doucet (HWT - No. 7).

🎥 OSUMAX: A LEGEND REMEMBERED

A true OSU legend. There’s no other way to describe Cecil O’Brate.

This past weekend, at the age of 95, O’Brate passed away. His impact on OSU and Cowboy baseball will forever be remembered.

Jump in the OSUMax rewind machine and go behind-the-scenes with him as he took in the first-ever regional at O’Brate Stadium.

🤔 COWBOY TRIVIA

The OSU men’s squad have been dialing long distance this season.

Entering tonight’s meeting with the Horned Frogs, the Cowboys rank second in the Big 12 and in the top-50 nationally with 9.1 three-pointers per game.

Which two Cowboys are averaging the most 3s per game and both rank in the top-15 in the Big 12 in that category?

🎥 OSUMAX: MY TIME

After a huge weekend for the Pokes on the court, there’s no better time to behind the scenes with OSU alumni Michael and Anne Greenwood, who have been staunch supporters of the Orange & Black.

In 2014, the Greenwood Tennis Center was opened, which set up a new era for OSU and set the stage for weekends such as this past one.

In 2024, the tennis facility will host the Big 12 Championships and the NCAA Championships.

Learn more about the Greenwood's and their story of why it was important to help fund a new facility for the tennis team.
