Erisman Hoping to ‘Write History’ against Alma Mater Oklahoma State Saturday

Neil Erisman will be facing his alma mater Oklahoma State on Saturday.

Not many college wrestling programs own the tradition and mystique of Oklahoma State. The Cowboys program began in 1914 Edward C. Gallagher took the program over the next year and his teams won 11 of the school's 13 national titles. In all, the Cowboys own 34 national titles and 55 conference championships. OSU boasts 143 individual national championships and 488 all-Americans.

Little Rock head coach Neil Erisman's name is etched in OSU lore, as he was a four-year letterman from 2007-11 and won a Big 12 championship in 2011.
