Cowboy Brew 1/15: A Day To Honor

Pokes Celebrate and Honor MLK

Good Morning. “If you can’t fly then run, If you can’t run then walk, If you can’t walk then crawl, But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” - Martin Luther King, Jr. 

Today, we pause to honor a man that moved our country and our society forward in so many ways. 

As we celebrate victories, moments and stories in each and every Brew, let us remember those who helped pave the paths before us. 

This morning, we hope you enjoy this mini-sized Cowboy Brew. (Think of it as a single shot of the Pokes.)

We’ll be back with your Venti-sized edition tomorrow.

🎥 ONE LAST RIDE

Before we completely turn the page into 2024, let’s take one last look at a unforgettable 2023 with the last episode of the Ride.

Go behind-the-scenes, in the meetings, on the practice fields and much more as the Cowboys enjoyed a victorious trip to the 2023 Texas Bowl.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Mat Masters. Add ✌️ more nationally-ranked Ws to the Cowboys 2023-24 resume.

The fifth-ranked Pokes continued to dominant on the mats picking up decisive road victories over #15 Pittsburgh (31-6) and #20 West Virginia (29-9) this weekend.

🔺 Off and Running (and throwing and jumping). Not too shabby when you can open the season with setting new program records, right?

That’s exactly what the OSU track & field squads did with several Pokes etching their name in the Orange & Black record books.

🔺 Two-For-One Special. Always a good thing to start the season off with a W… even better when you get have ✌️.

That’s what the OSU men’s tennis squad did on Saturday with decisive home victories over UTRGV (6-1) and Omaha (6-1) to open their 2024 spring slate.
