Little Rock Faces Top-Five Test at Oklahoma State, Returns Home for Pac-12 Dual

The Little Rock Wrestling team will face perhaps its toughest test of the season this weekend, then turn around to host a conference opponent less than 48 hours later.

The Trojans travel to Stillwater, Oklahoma, tonight to take on No. 4 Oklahoma State at 7:00 p.m. The dual will be streamed live on ESPN+.

Little Rock then returns home to host CSU Bakersfield on Sunday at the Jack Stephens Center. That Pac-12 dual is scheduled for 12:30 p.m. and will be streamed live on FloWrestling.com and the FloSports app.

"Tonight's dual is a great test for our team," head coach Neil Erisman said. "We're going into an exciting environment filled with top-ranked opponents. It's a tremendous opportunity for the team, and we're excited to compete."

The Trojans are expected to face ranked opponents in nine of the 10 matches tonight, including nine Oklahoma State wrestlers ranked inside the top 10 of their respective weight classes.

The Cowboys enter the weekend 12-1 in duals, riding a nine-match winning streak and holding a perfect 4-0 record at Gallagher-Iba Arena.

On Sunday, Little Rock welcomes the Roadrunners, who are 2-10 on the season, for a Pac-12 matchup. CSU Bakersfield is 0-2 on the road this year, with losses at Cal Poly in conference action and at Central Michigan, and remains winless in Pac-12 competition at 0-2.
