It was a tough, tough tournament. Obviously, our inexperience showed up a little bit, but we fought hard. I'm pleased with the way we fought, not pleased with the results, but we'll get better.

It was a great win. This is the best we have wrestled all year.

Missouri wrestled the way they had to to win, and we didn't. There were some close matches that could have gone either way and, unfortunately, they didn't go our way. This was a very hotly contested meet and those people will all see each other again.

He's dangerous. No one likes to wrestle this guy, and I can see why.

I think Oklahoma State has a great team, and they've had a great run. (The Big 12 championships) have always been a tough tournament, and a lot of the national champions come out of this tournament. I don't think this year will be any different.

We have to wrestle the best we can possibly wrestle to get a trophy, but it's possible. We've got five guys who will represent us very well. We're in it to bring back some hardware.
