"What we're looking for this weekend is to come out and wrestle well and wrestle hard and I think we're ready to do that," said head coach Jack Spates.
"Brockport is a good mid-level tournament. There are 11 teams most of which are very competitive, including Penn which is a perennial top 15 team. There are a lot of competitive teams but it's a good tournament to open up with.
"We're very excited to get out and battle with someone else," Spates said.
OU has four wrestlers as the No. 1 seed in their respective weight classes. Sam Hazewinkel at 125 pounds, Teyon Ware at 141 pounds, Matt Storniolo at 149 pounds and Jake Hager at Heavyweight.
The Sooners claimed the 2004 Brockport/Oklahoma Gold Classic team title with a score of 212.5. The win stretched the Sooners string of consecutive team titles at the event to six. The Sooners also had 10 wrestlers place fourth or better, with Sam Hazewinkel, Teyon Ware, Matt Storniolo, Charles Jones, Wes Roberts, E.K. Waldhaus and Joel Flaggert all bringing home individual titles.
