    Maple named Big 12 Wrestler of the Month

    NORMAN, Okla. -- Kendric Maple of the 11th-ranked University of Oklahoma wrestling team has been chosen as the Big 12 Conference Wrestler of the Month, announced Monday by the league office.

    It marks the first career conference honor for the redshirt-sophomore from Wichita, Kan., who has compiled a 6-0 overall record at 141-pounds this season.

    Maple, currently ranked No. 8, finished the month of November with a 6-0 overall record, including a 3-0 dual mark. During that span, he has accumulated three victories by major decision and two technical falls.

    “We're very excited for Kendric,” Mark Cody said. “Kendric is everything a coach could ever want in an athlete. He does everything right and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for Kendric Maple.”

    On Nov. 12, Maple won the Brockport/Oklahoma Gold title after he posted a 3-0 record and defeated Rutgers' 16th-ranked Billy Ashnault by major decision, Army's Connor Hanafee via a technical fall and American's No. 9-ranked Matthew Mariacher, 5-0. After his impressive outing at the tournament he was named the Most Outstanding Wrestler.
