5K

The No. 3 Nebraska team fell to the No. 2 Oklahoma State Cowboys with a score of 27-6 during Friday night's match at Gallagher-Iba Arena in Stillwater, Okla., according to official reports from both institutions.

Oklahoma State secured its first victory against ranked opponents this season and achieved an eight-match winning streak by earning bonus points on two occasions while allowing only two takedowns throughout the entire dual. The Cowboys have now won 15 consecutive home matches under head coach David Taylor, with every such game decided by a margin of at least fifteen points.

Nebraska's lone victory came from No. 2 wrestler Christopher Minto in the 174-pound division, who defeated Lorenzo Norman to score one point for his team before losing all remaining bouts. The contest is noted as having the largest winning margin recorded since Oklahoma State last beat a top-three opponent at home.
