February 12, 2022 —  The Wyoming Cowboy wrestling squad extended their win streak to three on Friday night with a 21-17 victory over the Air Force Falcons. The Cowboys won six matches on the night to seal their third straight conference win. 

“Darren (Green) and Jaron (Jensen) both came from behind and picked up good wins and that’s tough to do. Those kinds of victories are fulfilling, and they lift the team up.” Head Wrestling Coach Mark Branch said, “Stephen came out and set the bar and when you break your opponent like that, that’s a powerful feeling.”     

Up next, the Cowboys will travel to Morgantown, West Virginia for a Friday dual against the West Virginia Mountaineers.
