David Taylor’s OKSU stands out as a highly anticipated contender at the Big 12 Championships. What’s the reason behind that? In summary, their current season record stands at 13 wins and 1 loss, with the sole defeat occurring against the Iowa Hawkeyes, concluding with a score of 16-21. Losing to Iowa was undoubtedly a challenging moment for Taylor to come to terms with, marking his inaugural defeat in the role of a college wrestling coach.
What was his reaction to this? “This team has shown resilience all year. We’ll take this experience, learn from it, and come back stronger,” stated the Cowboys coach. Taylor viewed this loss merely as a small hurdle, eagerly anticipating what lies ahead. With eager excitement from the supporters, the Big 12 Championships have at last come to fruition.
Nonetheless, there was some confusion when Justin Basch posted on X, “Oklahoma State’s Tagen Jamison got DQ’d, he’ll be out for the tournament.” Initially, this was quite distressing news for David Taylor’s Cowboys. Jamison certainly stands out as a strong competitor in the 141lbs weight class. This season, he boasts an impressive record of 17 wins and 3 losses, with his only defeats attributed to Jesse Mendez, Cael Happel, and Jacob Frost.
In a recent update regarding the Cowboys at the Big 12, Basch reported, “UPDATE: Belton & Jamison are now both back in and warming up and are in the hole on Mats 3 and 4. Their matches were skipped, and the opposing teams were told they were DQ’d. Decision reversed.”
