David Taylor took 17 Cowboys up to Illinois this weekend for the Cougar Clash.
Three of those Oklahoma State wrestlers took home titles: Ronnie Ramirez (133), Alex Facundo (174) and Zack Ryder (184).
Ramirez’s conquering of the 133-pound bracket is probably the story of the tournament for the Cowboys. The 11-man bracket featured four OSU wrestlers, with Ramirez joining Richard Figueroa, Rin Sakamoto and Sam Smith.
Those four somehow avoided each other all day, but Ramirez finishing first in a bracket that featured Figueroa feels notable.
Figueroa has struggled to start his Cowboy career, with the 2024 125-pound national champ entering the weekend at 1-4.
