    Morgan named Big 12 Wrestler of the Week

    DALLAS, Texas -- Nathan Morgan went 3-0 last week, including two wins over ranked opponents, and was named Big 12 Wrestler of the Week for Jan. 17-23 as it was announced by the Big 12 Office this morning.

    Morgan won both matches of a double dual against Cal Poly and Fresno State on Jan. 20. His first match was against fellow Bakersfield, Calif. native and third-ranked Darrell Vasquez of Cal Poly. Morgan scored a takedown in sudden victory to beat his friend, 6-4.

    The Sophomore added a major decision against Sean Carlson helping the Cowboys to a 44-3 dual victory over Fresno State. Morgan closed out the week with a 9-4 decision over No. 19 Tyler McCormick.

    Morgan currently owns a 21-1 record, best on the team, and is ranked as high as second by the NWCA/Intermat. Morgan also leads the Big 12 with 50 takedowns in dual meets.

    You can see Morgan in action on Sunday when Iowa State visits Gallagher-Iba Arena for a 2 p.m. dual.
