Inside the Oklahoma State Wrestling Room


When it comes to NCAA Division 1 wrestling, Oklahoma State University is as big as it gets.  Since the team’s inaugural season in 1914 they have claimed 34 team national championships, 134 individual NCAA championships, and 213 of their wrestlers have earned All-American honors 425 times.  Their all time dual meet record stands at 1021-113-23.  In the sport of wrestling they are as close as it gets to a dynasty.

Oklahoma State University wrestlers are also pretty adept at transitioning to MMA.  The list of former Oklahoma State wrestlers who have made an impact in MMA includes Randy Couture, Mark Munoz, Johnny Hendricks, Jake Rosholt, Daniel Cormier, Muhammad Lawal, and Shane Roller.  That is a pretty impressive list.

Recently Johnny Hendricks gave fans an inside look at a typical training session at the legendary Oklahoma State wrestling room.  Check out the video below.
