Shannon Scovel | NCAA.com | February 24, 2019 Oklahoma State-Iowa wrestling: Cowboys top Hawkeyes 27-12 in rivalry dual to stay undefeated Iowa's Spencer Lee will get pushed to retain his title at 125 Share Two undefeated teams. Eighteen combined ranked wrestlers. Five top-10 matchups. Fifty-seven combined national titles throughout history. One dual. In a battle of undefeated teams, No. 2 Oklahoma State wrestling topped No. 3 Iowa 27-2 behind pins from Nick Piccininni and Chandler Rogers. The Cowboys ended their season 15-0 in the rivalry dual, extending their all-time record against the Hawkeyes to 29-22-2. Oklahoma State still has to get through Penn State to take home a national title in Pittsburgh, but, for now, they'll walk away from this final home dual with pride, momentum and a win. COWBOYS WIN! For the 46th time in program history and the first time since 2005, the Pokes finish the season with a perfect dual record! #okstate pic.twitter.com/trwoUZazZK— OSU Cowboy Wrestling (@CowboyWrestling) February 24, 2019 The winningest wrestling team in history, Oklahoma State holds 34 national titles to Iowa's 23, and they made a statement against the Hawkeyes in this dual setting. Prior to the match, Oklahoma State's biggest challenge this year came from No. 5 Missouri, when the Cowboys pulled out a 19-15 victory to stay undefeated after wins from Piccininni, Daton Fix, Rogers, Jacobe Smith, Preston Weigel and Derek White.

Fix, Smith, Weigel and White also picked up wins, as did Kaid Brock. NCAA WRESTLING: Penn State looks almost unbeatable. Here are 3 teams that could unseat the champs Weigel's upset win over No. 4 Jacob Warner secured the win for Oklahoma State before No. 2 Derek White even stepped on the mat. The dual was one of five top-10 battles of the afternoon, and though it may not have been as dramatic as Piccininni's pin against Lee, the match held particular meaning for the senior Cowboy who ended his career with a statement win. Weigel's victory marked a comeback moment for the 197-pounder who, prior to his 2018-2019 dual meet debut against Oklahoma, had only wrestled three matches, all in the Oklahoma City Open. A 2017 All-American, Weigel is now back in the lineup looking for an NCAA tournament bid, and he'll have a shot to achieve such a goal at the Big 12 tournament in March. Weigel held on to his undefeated season record with the win over Warner, and his momentum could help him keep this record alive deep into the conference and national tournament. NCAA TOURNAMENT INFO: How the NCAA wrestling tournament works Iowa’s loss, as a team, marks its first on the season. Heading into the dual, the Hawkeyes had earned top-10 ranked victories against Minnesota (24-10) in mid-January and Nebraska earlier this month (20-13). Iowa most recently dominated No. 16 Wisconsin 35-2 with the only Badger win coming at heavyweight when No. 7 Trent Hillger took down No. 8 Sam Stoll. That win gave the Hawkeyes part ownership of the Big Ten wrestling dual season title, an honor they shared with Penn State. Oklahoma State did not wrestle Wisconsin or Nebraska this year, but the Cowboys did beat Minnesota 23-9 behind upset wins from No. 2 Fix and No. 6 Kaden Gfeller. Iowa will will see the Cowboys again in Pittsburgh for the national championship in March, and coach Tom Brands will no doubt have his squad ready to do battle with Oklahoma State yet again, this time on the big stage.
