Sophomore Tyler McCormick (Leawood, Kan.), ranked No. 14 in the nation at 133 pounds, led the academic charge for the No. 9 Tigers by achieving a perfect 4.0 GPA. No stranger to success in the classroom, McCormick was the 2004-05 recipient of the Total Person Program Academic Excellence Award, given to the wrestler with the highest grade-point average. A business major, McCormick has been just as successful on the mat, entering the weekend with a 15-4 record.
The Tigers next compete at the National Duals in Cedar Falls, Iowa, Jan. 14-15, before returning home to open Big 12 action against the No. 1 Oklahoma State Cowboys Jan. 22, a match that will be televised live on CSTV at 2 p.m. CST.
