FRESNO, Calif. -- Oklahoma senior Zack Bailey remains undefeated on the season after defeating Ohio's fifth-ranked Germane Lindsey in the 45th-annual NWCA All-Star Classic Sunday, in Fresno, Calif., at the Selland Arena. 


Bailey, ranked No. 1 among 141 pounders, scored a 3-2 decision over Lindsey to take the 141-pound crown. Bailey is off to a 7-0 start.  

“This is a great event and honor to participate in,” head coach Jack Spates said. “Zack wrestled real well and I think it was a real important building block for the year. It was a tough match against a fellow All-American. It was a hard-fought kind of match that develops character and seasoning. 

Bailey became the 45th Sooner wrestler to compete in the event and first since 2006 when Matt Storniolo and Sam Hazewinkel both represented the Sooners.

“He scored at the end, which is really important for out guys to be the ones in scoring position at the end to seal the victory,” said Spates. “It was a good win and bodes well for his season.” 

The Sooners return home next weekend to host the annual Oklahoma Open on Thanksgiving weekend.
