Oklahoma State enters the 2024-25 season with four returning All-Americans, 13 national qualifiers, and four high-profile off-season transfers. The Cowboys finished 10th at the 2024 NCAA Championships. 

Returning All-Americans are Cam Amine (165), Dean Hamiti (174), Dustin Plott (184), and Wyatt Hendrickson (285).

Off-season transfers are Cam Amine (Michigan), Caleb Fish (Michigan State), Dean Hamiti (Wisconsin), and Wyatt Hendrickson (Air Force). 

Four-time World and Olympic champion David Taylor takes over a program with 34 NCAA team titles. This is Taylor’s first year as head coach. 

Plott reached the 184-pound NCAA tournament finals last year and is the highest returning placer. 

Hendrickson transferred from Air Force to Oklahoma State to complete his final year of eligibility. Service academies are only allowed four seasons to compete so the former Falcon star will be a Cowboy for his COVID year.

Fish, a three-time national qualifier, will likely redshirt and could compete at 157 or 165.

Carter Young will compete at 149 pounds after a redshirting and two seasons at 141 pounds. 

Three weights could have multiple national qualifiers: 165, 174, and 285.

Below is a projected depth chart for the Cowboys based on probable starters. The line-up can change throughout the season but this provides a snapshot of the team. Wrestlers can move up or down based on need.

True freshmen can use five competition dates as a starter without losing their redshirt.

A wrestler’s finishes at the NCAA Championships are in parenthesis. National qualifiers are listed as NQ.
