    Oklahoma State earns academic honor

    STILLWATER, Okla. -- Oklahoma State's wrestling team had three athletes named to the NWCA All-Academic Team as the Cowboy squad ranked 25th nationally with a 2.82 team grade point average.

    All-Americans Brandon Mason and Nathan Morgan were both named to the All-Academic team along with NCAA qualifier Newly McSpadden.

    Mason finished fifth at the NCAA Championships despite entering the tournament unseeded. The sophomore from Council Bluffs, Iowa earned his second honor as he compiled a 3.60 GPA in biology with a pre-med option.

    Morgan took fourth-place at the NCAA Championships, while maintaining a 3.34 GPA in civil engineering. It is the second honor for the junior from Bakersfield, Calif.

    Newly McSpadden earned his first NWCA Academic honor after qualifying for the NCAA Championships and maintaining a 3.60 GPA in sociology. The sophomore from Vinita, Okla. has twice been honored as an Arthur Ashe Scholar Athlete.

    The Cowboy wrestling program has excelled on the mat and in the classroom under current head coach John Smith. Oklahoma State has finished among the top 30 academic programs in six of the last seven years, winning four NCAA team titles in that span.
