Oklahoma State wrestling beats Virginia Tech 19-12 in Blacksburg, securing key road win February 15

A top-10 dual settled by close decisions and late separation

Oklahoma State’s third-ranked wrestling team earned a 19-12 road victory over seventh-ranked Virginia Tech on Sunday, Feb. 15, 2026, in Blacksburg, Virginia. The result came in a meet defined by narrow margins, multiple bouts decided in overtime or by a single score, and a heavyweight finish that prevented Virginia Tech from mounting a final push.

Virginia Tech opened with momentum at 125 pounds as Eddie Ventresca edged Troy Spratley, 2-1, in tiebreakers. Oklahoma State responded immediately at 133, where Jax Forrest prevailed 10-9 over Aaron Seidel in a bout that included a late scoring sequence and an unsuccessful Virginia Tech review for additional near-fall points.

Major at 141 and a string of decisions put OSU in control

The first significant swing came at 141 pounds. Oklahoma State’s Sergio Vega produced the dual’s lone major decision, an 11-2 win over Tom Crook, giving the Cowboys an early cushion in the team score. Virginia Tech answered at 149 when Drew Gorman beat Beau Hickman, 4-1, in sudden victory, keeping the meet within reach.

From there, Oklahoma State assembled a decisive run through the middle weights. Landon Robideau defeated Ethen Miller 3-2 at 157 in a match in which the scoring consisted of escapes and stalling points. At 165, Dee Lockett beat Mac Church 8-2, and at 174, Alex Facundo topped Sergio Desiante 4-1, using a late takedown to break a 1-1 tie.

Virginia Tech’s late wins narrowed the gap before the final bout

Virginia Tech trimmed the deficit with victories at 184 and 197. Jaden Bullock shut out Trevor Dopps 2-0 at 184, and Sonny Sasso followed with a 2-1 win over Cody Merrill at 197, leaving the meet at 16-12 entering heavyweight.

At 285, Oklahoma State’s Konner Doucet defeated Jimmy Mullen 6-1, sealing the dual. Doucet’s second-period scoring burst created separation and ensured the Cowboys collected the final three team points needed to close out the 19-12 result.
