For his efforts, Askren was awarded the 2006 NWCA Most Outstanding Wrestler award for the tournament, leading Missouri to a 15th-place finish with a then-school-record 45.0 points. Askren’s victory clinched a 45-0 season, the only undefeated season in the history of the Missouri wrestling program. Askren also set season records for falls (25), consecutive wins (45) and the record for most career falls at Missouri (61). Askren became the first recepient of the Dan Hodge Award in program history following the season, an award equivilant to the Heisman Trophy and given to the best wrestler in the NCAA for that season. Ben Askren - 2007 - 174 pounds On the heels of seniors Ben Askren and Matt Pell, the Mizzou wrestling team earned its highest team finish ever at the 2007 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships when it took third place on March 17, 2007, at Auburn Hills, Mich. The Tigers finished with 80 points, giving the University of Missouri its first NCAA team trophy since 1965, when the Indoor Track & Field team took home the trophy. Askren topped Keith Gavin (Pittsburgh) for the third time to earn his second national championship. With the win, Askren became the Tigers’ only back-to-back national champion in wrestling and first for the University of Missouri overall since track star Derrick Peterson in 1998-99. Askren never finished lower than second in the nation. He finished his career with an 87-match winning streak, and went 42-0 in his senior season. Askren pinned three opponents during the tournament and earned a technical fall in his pigtail match, and did not lose a match in his final two seasons at Mizzou. Askren was awarded the Dan Hodge Award for the second consecutive season following the perfect campaign. Mark Ellis - 2009 - HWT Mizzou crowned its second-ever wrestling National Champion upon the completion of junior heavyweight Mark Ellis’ 3-2 overtime victory over Duke’s fifth-ranked Konrad Dudziak on March 21, 2009, in St. Louis, Mo. Ellis managed a reversal with 10 seconds remaining in the second 30-second overtime period to capture his first career All-American honor and national title. Ellis and Dudziak were scoreless in the first period, although the Duke Blue Devil was hit with stalling early in the bout. Ellis chose down to start the second and escaped in 1:05, while Dudziak opted to start down in the third and escaped in 20 seconds. The two heavyweights pushed through the one minute sudden victory period and scrambled on the edge of the mat for the first 30-second tie breaker. The second 30-second period in which Ellis chose down proved the difference in the match and marked Ellis’ third win of the season in overtime. Max Askren - 2010 - 184 pounds Mizzou crowned its third wrestling National Champion after senior 184-pounder Max Askren’s 10-3 victory over top-seeded Kirk Smith of Boise State on March 20, 2010, in Omaha, Neb. Askren started the match out strong racking up seven points in the first period to counter Smith’s sole escape. With a 7-1 lead, the Hartland, Wis., native began the second period in the down position, earning a point for an escape. Smith made a run at Askren, picking up a takedown to begin the third period, with Askren escaping again at the :30 mark. With a point for riding time, Askren won the match by decision, 10-3, and became Mizzou’s first National Champion at 184 pounds. After going 20-2 on the season, Askren finished his career with a record of 104-16 and stands at 21st on Missouri’s top career victories list. 2 HISTORY & RECORDS MIZZOU WRESTLING Mizzou’s National Champions 1923-1937 :: 1959-2021 J’den Cox - 2014 - 197 pounds True freshman J’den Cox stormed to the top of a 197-pound weight class which featured three seniors in the final four, engraving his name in Mizzou lore with a 2-1 decision over No. 1 Nick Heflin on March 22, 2014, in Oklahoma City, Okla. Cox became the youngest wrestler in program history to capture an NCAA title and 14th true freshman to capture a title in NCAA history. The Mizzou champion’s .950 winning percentage (38-2) in 2013-14 was the best mark posted by a freshman in program history, surpassing Ben Askren’s 32-5 freshman campaign in 2003-04. Drake Houdashelt - 2015 - 149 pounds Drake Houdashelt tallied a thrilling 3-1 SV-1 decision victory over No. 3 David Habat (Edinboro) on March 21, 2015, at Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Mo., becoming the fifth individual and sixth overall National Champion in program history. The O’Fallon, Mo., native outscored his five opponents, 30-3, at the 2015 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships. Two of those wins came by major decision shutouts, while the other three victories came by decision. The final resume for Houdashelt at Mizzou is one for the records books. He leaves a four-time conference champion (2012 Big 12, 2013-2014-2015 Mid-American Conference), making him the first individual in Mizzou wrestling history to accomplish that feat. Further personal accolades include ending his career with 134 wins, putting him at third place in the Mizzou wrestling all-time wins list. He also leaves Columbia, Mo., with a .854 career winning percentage (sixth place), and 39 career major decisions which are the most in Tiger wrestling history. J’den Cox - 2016 - 197 pounds J’den Cox became the second-ever two-time NCAA National Champion in program history with a 4-2 win over Penn State’s Morgan McIntosh at Madison Square Garden in New York City on March 19, 2016. The hometown Tiger finished the season 33-1 and recorded seven technical falls on the season, tied for fifth- most in a season. Cox became the fourth three-time All-American in school history, following Ben Askren (2004-07), Max Askren (2008-10) and Drake Houdashelt (2013-15). Cox became the 24th member of the 100-win club with a 16-7 major decision victory in a 19-14 win over Nebraska in the NWCA National Duals Series, Feb. 21. He reached the century mark in 105 matches, the fastest to 100 wins in program history. Cox also owns the best win percentage of any wrestler in program history over 100 wins at .956 (108-5), slightly ahead of Ben Askren’s mark of .950 (153-8). J’den Cox - 2017 - 197 pounds With an 8-2 win in the NCAA Wrestling Championships Finals, J’den Cox became the first ever three-time National Champion in program history and Mizzou Athletics history. Cox upended Minnesota’s Brett Pfarr to capture the top prize in collegiate wrestling once again. Cox finished off the season with a record of 28-0, becoming just the second Tiger wrestler to finish a season with a perfect record (Askren 2006, 2007). Of Cox’s 28 victories, he scored 19 bonus point victories with six falls, six technical falls, and seven major- decisions. For his career, Cox finished with the best winning percentage among any wrestler with over 100 wins (.965, 136-5), tied for second-most wins with Alan Waters (136), second in technical falls (20), third in major decisions (31) and tied for eighth in falls (27). He is one of two wrestlers in program history to record four All-America honors (Askren, 2004-07).

    From: Pat Donghia [email protected] Subject: Bo Nickal Wins the Hodge! Date: April 1, 2019 at 12:34 PM To: undisclosed-recipients:; Bo Nickal Wins the Hodge! Three-time NCAA Champion wins wrestling’s Heisman UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; April 1, 2019 – (Portion of release, including quotes, courtesy Bryan Van Kley, WIN Magazine) Penn State Nittany Lion wrestler Bo Nickal (Allen, Texas) has won the WIN Magazine/Culture House Dan Hodge Trophy, presented annually to the top collegiate wrestler in the nation by ASICS. The Hodge Trophy has been awarded since 1995. The three-time NCAA champion finished first in the voting, just ahead of teammate Jason Nolf (Yatesboro, Pa.). A Nittany Lion has now won the last three Hodge Trophy awards. Nickal joins former Nittany Lion greats Zain Retherford and David Taylor, who each claimed two Hodge Trophy honors, and former Lion stand-out Kerry McCoy, who won the honor in 1997, as Penn State recipients. In all, Penn State now has four different individuals who have won the honor six times. The Nittany Lion won his third NCAA championship on March 23, defeating Kollin Moore of Ohio State. The 5-1 finals victory at 197 pounds was Nickal’s 30th of an undefeated senior campaign that included 18 pins, three tech falls and six major decisions. In a year that featured four outstanding finalists for the award, known as “wrestling’s Heisman Trophy,” Nickal won the honor over a senior teammate Jason Nolf, also a three-time NCAA champ who had very similar stats as Nickal. The other two Hodge finalists were Rutgers’ senior Anthony Ashnault and Cornell sophomore two-time champ Yianni Diakomihalis, who won NCAA championships at 149 and 141 pounds, respectively.

    LINE DRIVES THE NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 48, No. 3, Apr. 17, 2009) The President’s Message By NCBWA President Joe Dier NCBWA Membership: With the 2008-09 hoops season now in the record books, the collegiate spotlight is focusing more closely on the nation’s baseball diamonds. Though we’re heading into the final month of the season, there are still plenty of twists and turns ahead on the road to Omaha and the 2009 NCAA College World Series. The NCAA will soon be announcing details of next month’s tournament selection announcements naming the regional host sites (May 24) and the 64-team tournament field (May 25). To date, four different teams have claimed the top spot in the NCBWA’s national Division I polls --- Arizona State, Georgia, LSU, and North Carolina. Several other teams have graced the No. 1 position in other national polls. The NCAA’s mid-April RPI listing has Cal State Fullerton leading the 301-team pack, with 19 teams sporting 25-win records through games of April 12. For the record, New Mexico State tops the wins list with a 30-6 mark. As the conference races heat up from coast to coast, the NCBWA will begin the process for naming its All- America teams and the Divk Howser Trophy (see below). We will have a form going out to conference offices and Division I independents in coming days. Last year’s NCBWA-selected team included 56 outstanding baseball athletes, and we want to have the names of all deserving players on the table for consideration for this year’s awards.
