The Bobcats go into their final 2 dual matches of the season next Sunday when they host both American and Appalachian State. Then they'll head to the MAC Championships March 4th and 5th.

OU wrapped up the conference tournament yesterday in Cedar Falls, Iowa, with a less than impressive weekend. They finished 8th in the MAC Tournament with 62.5 points. The bright spot on the weekend for OU was Shakur Laney who won the individual 125lb conference title, defeating Dylan Peters of UNI.

A limited amount of Bobcats will head to the NCAA Championships.
