🔼 And The Award Goes To... It was a truly historic fall for the OSU cross country program.

And the man that led the Orange & Black to new heights was honored this week as Coach Dave Smith was named U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) National Men's Cross Country Coach of the Year.

Smith saw the Cowboys win the program’s fifth national title just a few weeks ago in Charlottesville, Va.

🔼 Ruckin’ It Up. He was not going to be denied.

Trey Rucker was determined to be a part of the 2023 Big 12 Championship game and the redshirt senior made it happen, forcing two turnovers, including the game-clincher in Saturday’s double-overtime win over BYU to clinch OSU’s spot in the title game.

For his efforts, Rucker was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week.

🎉 TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: 1916.

Sorry, OSUMax wasn’t on hand to capture the behind the scenes of that epic battle.

The Longhorns won a defensive battle that day in San Antonio, toppling the Cowboys, 14-6 on Friday, October 13, 1916.

🤠 Let’s have a great Tuesday, y’all!
