Orange and Black Ranking Matches Set For Nov. 8
Stillwater, Okla. - Oklahoma State wrestling’s Orange and Black ranking matches are set for 7 p.m. on Thursday, November 8 at Gallagher-Iba Arena. Admission is free to all fans.
The 34-time NCAA champion Cowboys enter the 2007-08 season ranked in the top five in every major preseason publication but have several spots in the lineup that are open for competition within the team, and the Orange and Black ranking matches will be a pivotal event for many Cowboy wrestlers.

Perhaps one of the most interesting weights to watch will be 157 pounds, where redshirt freshman Neil Erisman is a very strong candidate to move into the lineup after compiling an 11-3 record competing exclusively in open tournaments a year ago. To get into the lineup, Erisman will have to get past 2007 NCAA qualifier Newly McSpadden.
