Some of coach John Smith’s favorite alumni are guys who weren’t starters.
OSU honored two of them on Thursday during the Cowboys’ senior night against the Oklahoma Sooners, a 26-6 win for OSU. Gavin Stika, Jalin Harper, Kaden Gfeller and Wyatt Sheets were honored ahead of their final home dual in Gallagher-Iba Arena. It was a fitting finish to their careers as the Cowboys downed the Sooners 26-6.
Gfeller and Sheets have been routine starters for OSU over the last 4-5 years. They’ve both won national honors and Big 12 honors. Smith said he was proud of Gfeller’s commitment to come back and has enjoyed watching Sheets during his career.
