IRVING, Texas – With a pair of wins over Conference foes at 141 pounds, Air Force’s Carter Nogle was selected as the Big 12 Wrestler of the Week. The sophomore opened his week with a top-20 victory and then helped propel the Falcons to a win over Cal Baptist.

Nogle defeated No. 18 Haiden Drury from Utah Valley after scoring a takedown in the first period. He clinched the win over the NCAA qualifier with a decisive two-minute ride, from the top position, in the final period. The Laurel, Maryland native capped a successful weekend with a commanding 10-1 major decision over CBU’s Jesse Vasquez, who was coming off a top-20 victory of his own versus Arizona State.

Air Force will face Northern Colorado in its regular season Big 12 finale on Sunday, Feb. 22 in Colorado Springs before heading to Tulsa for the Big 12 Wrestling Championships presented by Allstate on March 6 and 7.
