2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

The 2007 season started with high expectations as the Ohio State baseball team was one of the preseason favorites in the Big Ten and looked poised for an outstanding season.

What ensued, instead, was a roller coaster season that saw key injuries and a mid-season lull that almost caused the Buckeyes to miss the Big Ten Tournament for the fi rst time since 1996. In the end, the Buckeyes once again proved they are one of the premier college baseball programs in the Midwest as they captured their eighth Big Ten Tournament title, made their 18th NCAA Tourna-ment appearance and fi nished the year 38-24.

The Buckeyes started the season with a 1-3 record, but quickly turned that around and jumped into the national rankings behind a 15-game winning streak to improve to 16-3. It was during the streak, though, that OSU lost ace starting pitcher Dan DeLucia for the season to an elbow injury.

Without DeLucia anchoring the pitching staff, Ohio State had an up and down conference season, fi nishing 15-15 and securing a berth into the Big Ten Tournament only after defeating Penn State on the last day of the regular season.

The early season form returned in the conference tournament, held in Ann Arbor, Mich. The Buckeyes stormed through the six-team fi eld unbeaten in four games to win the tournament title and gain an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. Compet-ing at the College Station, Texas, Regional, Ohio State lost to Louisiana-Lafayette, defeated LeMoyne and then was eliminated by host Texas A&M.

One constant throughout the year was the spectacular pitching of junior left-hander Cory Luebke. Luebke had one of the best season-long performances in Ohio State history. The Maria Stein, Ohio native went 9-1 with a 2.07 ERA, was named the Big Ten Pitcher of the Year, the Big Ten tournament’s Most Outstanding Player and a third-team All-American. He was selected 63rd overall in the Major League Baseball draft by the San Diego Padres.

Sophomores Jake Hale and J.B. Shuck were the next top two pitchers for the Buckeyes, with Hale going 4-3 with a 4.25 ERA and 10 saves and Shuck 4-4 with a 4.88 ERA. Hale was chosen in the 20th round of the MLB draft by the Toronto Blue Jays. Sophomore Josh Barrera and junior Rory Meister also posted four wins each.

Leading the way at the plate was junior center fi elder Matt Angle with a .366 average. Angle, a seventh-round selection by the Baltimore Orioles, also led the team in stolen bases (22), runs (53), triples (4), walks (37) and on base percentage (.462), and was second in hits with 79. Sophomore fi rst baseman Justin Miller fi nished fi rst on the team with 81 hits and his .346 average was second. Senior Jason Zoeller’s .345 average was third highest. He led the club with nine home runs and a .552 slugging percentage. Shuck hit .342 on the year, and junior catcher Eric Fryer .322. Fryer was drafted in the 10th round by the Milwaukee Brewers.

Fryer was a second team All-Big Ten selection, while Angle, Miller and Shuck were third team picks. Freshman Cory Kovanda started at second base for OSU and ended the year hitting .289 and was named a Ping!Baseball Freshman All-American.

Senior Jacob Howell was a third-team CoSida Academic All-American after hitting .322, while Fryer and Luebke were fi rst team All-District IV academic picks and Zoeller and Angle third team academic all-district choices. Nine Buckeyes were Academic All-Big Ten picks and 18 were OSU Scholar Athletes.

On the bench, 20th year head coach Bob Todd’s teams had 38 wins for the 12th time in his 20 seasons. He has never had a losing season and has had at least 32 wins in all 20 seasons. He also recorded career win No. 800 in 2007.

Ohio State made its 20th appearance in the NCAA tournament in 2006-07 after winning both an outright Big Ten regular season title and the annual postseason league tournament. The championships propelled the Buckeyes to the NCAA title game and a school record 35 victories. Thad Matta, the league’s coach of the year for the second-consecutive season, orchestrated his seventh-consecutive 20-win campaign (35-4) while leading the Buckeyes to a 15-1 record in league play. Freshman center Greg Oden led the team offensively with an average of 15.7 points a game while pulling down a team-best 9.6 rebounds. He was voted the Big Ten defensive player of the year (105 blocks) and fi rst team All-Big Ten. Ohio State defeated Central Connecticut and Xavier in the opening two rounds in the NCAA tournament games in Lexington as a No. 1 seed in the South Regional. The Buckeyes then defeated Tennessee and Memphis for the South Regional Championship in San Antonio. The title allowed the Buckeyes to advance to Atlanta for the program’s ninth Final Four appearance. A win over Georgetown set up the title game against Florida, an 84-75 win for the Gators.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

WOMEN’S BASKETBALLOhio State claimed its third-consecutive Big Ten crown and

made its fi fth straight appearance in the NCAA tournament in 2006-07. The Buckeyes fi nished 28-4 overall and boasted a 15-1 conference mark. Ohio State was led by a trio of seniors who completed their careers with a Buckeye best 108 wins in four seasons. Senior Jessica Davenport was named the Big Ten’s fi rst three-time recipient of its player of the year award and she also became Ohio State’s initial three-time All-American honoree. The only player in Big Ten history to record 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds and 300 blocked shots in a career, Davenport posted a total of 384 blocks and ended her Buckeye run as the Big Ten’s all-time leader. Davenport fi nished with 2,303 career points, which rates fi fth all-time in Big Ten history and second behind Smith (1993-96), who is Ohio State’s all-time points leader with 2,578. Davenport tied Courtney Coleman (2000-03) for the top Ohio State career fi eld goal percentage at .604 (875/1448) and is the all-time leader at Ohio State with 875 made FG. Davenport’s career rebound total of 1,093 rates second in OSU history.

The Buckeyes won 24 of their fi rst 25 games, the best start in team annals en route to winning their Big Ten all-time best 10th league title. Senior Brandie Hoskins was named second-team All-Big Ten, along with sophomore Star Allen. Junior Marscilla Packer was a third-team honoree.

Head coach Jim Foster was awarded league coach of the year honors for the third straight year, also a league fi rst. The win Feb. 15 over Wisconsin was Ohio State’s 27th in a row at home (25th consecutive at VCA) to set the program record for consecutive home wins. Last season, Ohio State reeled off 12-consecutive victories at home after suffering a loss to No. 3/3 LSU Dec. 15, 2005. Ohio State has won 28 of its last 29 games at home and 26 of 27 at VCA. Ohio State’s 13-0 start to the 2007 Big Ten season was the program’s best since the 1984-85 Buckeyes went 18-0 in league play. The 1986-87 Big Ten championship squad also won its fi rst 13 league games.

2007 NCAA FENCING CHAMPIONSHIPSThe Ohio State fencing team won its fi fth-consecutive Midwest Fencing Conference championship and fi nished in fi fth place with 144 points after four days of competition at the 2007 NCAA Championships, hosted by Drew University in Madison, N.J. The Buckeyes have now recorded six consecutive Top 5 fi nishes and sophomore foilist Andras Horanyi (Boulder, Colo.) captured the program’s seventh individual national championship.

Penn State won its 10th national title with 194 points, while St. John’s fi nished second (176), Columbia-Barnard took third (169) and Notre Dame placed fourth (160). The Buckeyes fi nished ahead of sixth place and defending national champion Harvard (123) and seventh place Penn (104).

With Horanyi’s title, Ohio State has now won the indi-vidual men’s foil crown four consecutive years, a streak started by three-time national champion and current student assistant coach Boaz Ellis (Moshav Zippori, Israel). The third-seeded Horanyi upset both the second and top seeded competitors en route to the title.

The women’s sabre tandem of juniors Eileen Grench (Davis, Calif.) and Siobhan Byrne (Eislingen, Germany) each recorded Top 10 fi nishes, with Grench placing seventh and Byrne fi nishing ninth.

In men’s sabre, sophomore Mikhail Momtselidze (Overland Park, Mo.) came up just short of a bronze medal, fi nishing fourth. Freshman teammate Sergey Smirnov (Shymkent, Kazachstan) placed 11th in his debut at the national champion-ships.

Freshman Julia Tikhonova (Jerusalem, Israel) impressed in her fi rst trip to the championships, placing fi fth in women’s foil.

The women’s epee squad sent two competitors to the national championship in juniors Leslie Lampman (Gibsonia, Pa.) and Alexandra Obrazcova (Daugavpils, Latvia). Obrazcova fi nished 10th, while Lampman placed 22nd.

Ohio State won four of six team competitions at the Mid-west Conference Championships in South Bend, Ind., March 4, to take home the Buckeyes’ fi fth-consecutive conference title. The second-ranked OSU men’s squad won all three team competitions, sweeping foil, epee and sabre for a total of 675 points. The fi fth-ranked women’s squad scored 645 points and won the sabre competition, while fi nishing second in both foil and epee.

Ohio State’s combined team total of 1320 points was 75 points better than host and second-place Notre Dame’s team total of 1,245. Northwestern took third with 1,110 points and Michigan was fourth with 980.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

FIELD HOCKEY The Ohio State fi eld hockey team recorded several fi rsts for the program in 2006 in what will go down as one of the best seasons in over 40 years of the sport at OSU. The Buckeyes ad-vanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament for the fi rst time in four appearances. Ohio State also clinched its fi rst outright Big Ten regular-season championship after completing the conference season with a 5-1 record. For their outstanding play, senior midfi elder Saskia Muel-ler was named Big Ten Player of the Year and junior midfi elder Yesenia Luces earned Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year – the fi rst player of the year awards ever for Buckeyes. Led by Big Ten Coach of the Year Anne Wilkinson, Ohio State concluded 2006 with a 15-4 record for a .789 winning percentage. The percentage ranks second only to the Buckeyes’ .821 mark set in 1973 when the team was 11-2-1. For her ac-complishments, Wilkinson also was named NFHCA West Re-gion Coach of the Year by the National Field Hockey Coaches Association. The 15 wins tied for the second-most in a season in OSU history. Combined with the 15 wins from 2005, the 30 victories are the most wins in a two-year period for Ohio State. The Buckeyes began the season with an eight-game win streak, the best start in program history. Overall, the team tack-led a tough schedule that featured only six home games and to-taled eight opponents nationally ranked at the time of the game. Ohio State concluded the season with another fi rst in back-to-back NCAA tournament appearances. After recording its fi rst NCAA tournament win in a 3-1 victory over California in the fi rst round, the Buckeyes concluded their season with a 3-0 loss to Duke in Durham, N.C. Ohio State started the season ranked No. 15 in the STX/NFHCA preseason poll, but quickly jumped in the Top 7 where the Buckeyes would remain throughout the season. The team peaked at No. 5, its highest ranking since the 2001 season, and fi nished the year as No. 5 in the fi nal NFHCA/STX poll. For their record-setting season, several Buckeyes garnered both conference and national awards. Mueller and Luces were named NFHCA Second Team All-Americans and sophomore Linda Haussener capped her breakout season with a third team selection. All three were named NFHCA First Team All-West Re-gion along with senior Curlyne Wynn – the fourth fi rst team nod of her career. Mueller, Luces and Wynn were selected First Team All-Big Ten while Haussener and senior Lauren Kruse earned sec-ond team honors. Luces, who totaled 37 points for the season, led the conference in overall scoring for the second year in a row. A program-record nine Buckeyes received Big Ten Player of the Week awards, led by Mueller with four to the tie league record for the most weekly honors by a fi eld hockey player in a season. Luces also had three player of the week nods, while Haussener and freshman goalkeeper Lindsay Quintiliani each had one.

2006 STATISTICS 12-1 OVERALL; 8-0 BIG TEN (1ST)

FOOTBALL With a 42-39 victory over No. 2-ranked Michigan Nov. 18 in Ohio Stadium, the football team secured its 31st overall Big Ten title and fi rst outright conference championship since 1984. Ohio State’s 12-0 regular season earned a bid to play for the Buckeyes’ second national champion-ship in the span of fi ve seasons in the initial BCS Championship Game in Glendale, Ariz. Quarterback Troy Smith fueled one of the nation’s most potent of-fensive units and won Ohio State’s seventh all-time Heisman Trophy as college football’s best player. Smith regularly connected with the receiving tandem of Ted Ginn Jr. and Anthony Gonzalez to the combined tune of 110 receptions, more than 1,500 yards and 17 TDs. Smith led the nation in passing effi ciency and established an Ohio State record with 30 scoring strikes. The Buckeyes also featured an impressive duo in the backfi eld in junior Antonio Pittman and freshman Chris Wells. Pittman became the fi rst

Buckeye ball carrier to post back-to-back 1,000 yard seasons since 1995 Heisman winner Eddie George. Wells capped a fi ne rookie campaign with a thundering 52-yard TD to give the Buckeyes the lead for good against Michigan.The Ohio State offensive line paved the way for the Buckeyes to average a Big Ten best 34.6 points a game, rack up 400-plus yards of offense per contest and allow just 14 sacks in the regular season. Doug Datish and T.J. Downing joined Smith, Pittman, Ginn and Gonzalez as fi rst team All-Big Ten award winners. Returning just two starters, the Buckeye defense ranked in the Top 5 in the nation in allowing just 12.8 points a game and proved to be oppor-tunistic, ranking third in the country with 21 interceptions. Sophomore middle linebacker James Laurinaitis was named 2006 Nagurski Award winner for the best defensive player in the country. Defensive tackle Quinn Pitcock and defensive backs Malcolm Jenkins and Antonio Smith joined Laurinaitis as All-Big Ten fi rst team performers.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

The Ohio State men’s golf team fi nished the 2006-07 season with a record of 62-76-3 with senior Colin Biles leading the team with a stroke average of 74.4. Classmate David Vallina was second at 76.0. He recorded the low round of the season for the Buckeyes with a 66 in the second round of the Fossum Intercol-legiate April 21. The Buckeyes fi nished fourth in the Big Ten Championships at the OSU Golf Club’s Scarlet Course April 27-29, the fi rst men’s tournament played on the renovated Scar-let Course since it was completed in May of 2006. Biles fi nished among the Top 20 individually in fi ve events. In a team-leading 32 rounds played, he shot par or better nine times. He led the team in four events on the season. His best fi n-ish was a fourth-place tie at the Boilermaker Invitational in early April. That effort was the best individual fi nish of the season for the Buckeyes as well. David Cape, Patrick Simard, Kyle Sawicki and Jack Tyler all enjoyed success in the classroom in 2006-07. The four were named Ohio State Scholar Athletes while Sawicki and Tyler earned Academic All-Big Ten honors as well. Ohio State head coach Jim Brown upped his career record of 5,490-1,741-38 in 34 years as the Ohio State head coach. His teams have won 156 tournaments during his tenure, which includes 17 Big Ten championship tournament victories and 30 appearances in NCAA postseason competition. The 2006-07 season was the fi rst for the Buckeyes playing on the renovated Scarlet Course. The Jack Nicklaus design was completed in May of 2006 in time for Women’s NCAA Cham-pionships. The 2007 Kepler Intercollegiate was the fi rst men’s tournament contested on the renovated course. Louisville won the event, which was shortened by weather, with 23-over 591. Ohio State was seventh in its fi rst effort on the new track. The annual Big Ten Championships also were held at Scarlet. Min-nesota and Michigan State tied for the league title after the Gophers made a late charge over the fi nal nine holes to tie the Spartans at 1,192 (+56) over the four-round event.

A LOOK AT OHIO STATE In 2007, the Buckeyes (14-7 overall; 10-5 Big Ten) spent the majority of the regular season ranked-No. 3 in the national GymInfo poll until they pocketed the No. 1 spot from Michigan March 19. Heading into the Big Ten and NCAA championships ranked fi rst in the country, the team etched its name into the OSU record book as it became the fi rst squad in program his-tory to nab three-consecutive Big Ten championship titles. The Buckeyes outscored Penn State, 217.75-217.65, March 30 in Minneapolis, Minn., to secure the victory. In April, four gym-nasts compiled fi ve All-America distinctions, including Pejman Ebrahimi’s fi rst career NCAA vault title.

BEST IN THE BIG TEN Following the team championship, two Buckeyes went on to garner Big Ten event crowns. At the individual fi nals, junior DJ Bucher earned his third career individual league title when he scored a 9.675 on parallel bars while sophomore Eddie Hay cap-tured his fi rst conference title on fl oor with a career-high 9.825. Bucher and Hay were joined by freshman Tai Lee on the All-Big Ten team. In addition, head coach Miles Avery grabbed his third-consecutive Big Ten Coach of the Year honor, sharing the title with Minnesota head coach Mike Burns.

EBRAHIMI TOPS NCCA COMPETITION ON VAULT Junior Pejman Ebrahimi out scored the nation’s top gymnasts to become the fi rst Buckeye since Daren Lynch in 2001 to be named an NCAA vault champion after he tied David Sender of Stanford with a 9.3 on the apparatus. Of fi ve qualifi ed Buckeyes, the squad had four gymnasts combine to earn fi ve All-America laurels. DJ Bucher added two more national distinctions to his resume for a total of six hon-ors. The junior tied Sender with a 9.65 on rings for fourth and placed second on parallel bars (9.625). Jimmy Wickham became a two-time All-American on vault after he landed in third place with a 9.275 while senior Willie Ito ended his career earning his second national honor taking seventh place on parallel bars with a 9.15. With a fourth-place fi nish at the NCAA team qualifi er, the Buckeyes found themselves out of contention for the national championship title for the second-consecutive season. Ohio State was shut out of the Top 3 in the fi rst of two qualifying seasons April 12 after it scored a tenth of a point less than Mich-igan’s third-place fi nished of 215.35 with a 215.25.

AVERY, STIBEL EARN NATIONAL COACHING RECOGNITION At the NCAA/CGA banquet, Buckeye head coach Miles Av-ery and assistant coach Doug Stibel were named Central Region Coach and Assistant Coach of the Year, respectively. The honor logged Avery’s third of its kind in his career at Ohio State and Stibel’s fi rst.

MEN’S GYMNASTICSBUCKEYE SPOTLIGHT Ohio State closed out the regular season with a 4-3 Big Ten

record after dealing then-No. 1 Michigan its fi rst dual loss of the year with a season-high team score, 220.5-215.85. The score was Ohio State’s highest since the 2005 NCAA Championships (225.45). At the meet, the squad won all events but fl oor at the meet and noted season highs on pommel horse (36.35), vault (36.3), parallel bars (37.1) and high bar (37.3) as Avery noted his 100th career victory with the win over Michigan March 17. In his 10-year tenure as head coach, Avery’s all-time meet record now stands at 107-32-1. Bucher turned in a big performance at the dual as he captured fi rst on all three of his events (pommel horse, rings and parallel bars) for the second time in2007. Following the meet, Bucher was named NCAA Division I National Gymnast of the Week by the College Gymnastics Association and Big Ten Gymnast of the Week. In nonconference action, Ohio State dealt Oklahoma its fi rst dual loss at home in seven years. The Buckeyes ended the Soon-ers’ win streak with a 218.65-213.55 victory March 3 at Mc-Casland Field House in Norman, Okla. The last time OU fell at home was Jan. 28, 2000, when Avery’s squad bested Oklahoma by .075 of a point (228.1-228.025). For the 2007 win, the team recorded a score of 218.65 as the Buckeyes saw four gymnasts combine to garner fi rst-place scores in all six events.

LUCKY IN LAS VEGAS Buckeyes Jimmy Wickham, DJ Bucher and Willie Ito fi nished in the Top 3 on vault, parallel bars and high bar, respectively, at USA Gymnastics Winter Cup Challenge in Las Vegas (Feb. 10). In all, fi ve student-athletes from Ohio State, the most from any program, advanced to the individual event and all-around fi nals in 2007. For his performance on vault, Wickham was tabbed Big Ten Gymnast of the Week (Feb. 14) to give the junior Buckeye his fi rst conference honor. Wickham, who won the U.S. National vault title in 2006, fi nished second on vault among the nation’s elite at the national competition with a combined total of 32.55.

On parallel bars, Bucher scored a 15.3 in the event fi nals to give him a two-day total of 30.3. This mark landed him third place. Bucher also earned the best fi nish for a Buckeye on rings compiling a 29.55 for ninth place. Success on the national platform continued for Ohio State as Ito claimed third on high bar with a total score of 29.6 after earning a 14.7 at the event fi nals. The senior earned his fi rst All-America honor on high bar at the 2006 NCAA championships with a third-place fi nish of 9.687.

The Ohio State men’s hockey team ended the 2006-07 season 15-17-5 overall and fi nished seventh in the Central Collegiate Hockey Association with a 12-12-4 record. A highlight of the squad’s year was winning the 2006 Ohio Hockey Classic, defeating then-No. 4 Miami, 5-3, in the cham-pionship game Dec. 30 at Nationwide Arena. It was the fi rst OHC title for Ohio State in the three-year history of the tourna-ment. All fi ve OSU goals against the RedHawks were scored by seniors as seven of eight members of the class had at least one point in the game, led by forwards Kenny Bernard and Mathieu Beaudoin who each tallied a goal and an assist. The Buckeyes topped Minnesota Duluth of the WCHA, 4-1, in their fi rst round game Dec. 29. Senior captain Sean Collins was named MVP of the 2006 Ohio Hockey Classic and joined teammates Tom Fritsche, Tommy Goebel and Joseph Palmer on the All-Tournament team. Fritsche was the recipient of the CCHA’s Terry Flanagan Memorial Award, given annually to an upperclassman that has overcome some type of personal adversity and is active on the university campus and surrounding community. Fritsche, the Buckeyes’ leading scorer his fi rst two seasons with the squad and a second-round draft pick of the Colorado Avalanche, returned to the lineup Dec. 29 after suffering from severe ulcerative coli-tis, a chronic intestinal disorder that forced him to miss the fi rst half of the 2006-07 season.

Collins was voted the Bobby Brown Most Valuable Player by his teammates after leading the squad with a career-best 28 points en route to a spot on the All-CCHA Second Team. He was the fi rst true blueliner to lead the Buckeyes in scoring since 1970. In the fi rst intermission of the Nov. 4 game against Notre Dame, the Ohio State men’s hockey team retired its fi rst jersey in program history in Paul Pooley’s No. 22 sweater. Pooley, a former Buckeye All-American who played for the Scarlet and Gray 1981-84, is the team’s all-time leading scorer with 270 points as well as the record-holder for career goals and assists and single-season points and assists. He was named the Bauer National Player of the Year in 1981 and is the only Buckeye to be named CCHA Player of the Year.

Th e 2006-07 season was a milestone one for the Ohio State women’s hockey program as the Buckeyes set several team and individual records. OSU concluded the season 20-13-4 overall, setting the record for most wins and best winning percentage (.595). Th e team fi nished fourth in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association with a 13-11-4 mark and also set a program record with 30 points in the league standings. After a season-opening series against Northeastern in which Ohio State outscored the Huskies 16-4, setting the school record for most goals in a two-game series, the Buckeyes stumbled and dropped the next fi ve games. Th e team was able to regroup and with a 2-1 comeback win against nationally-ranked Minnesota (Oct. 28), the Buckeyes went on to set another team record with a 10-game unbeaten streak. During that stretch, Ohio State was 9-0-1 and outscored its opponents 31-9, allowing multiple goals just once. Heading into the fi nal series of the regular season, the Buck-eyes needed to win one game against Minnesota State to secure home ice for the fi rst round of the WCHA Playoff Champion-ships. Th e Buckeyes locked up one more weekend in Columbus during the fi rst game with a 4-3 win thanks to an overtime goal by sophomore Hayley Klassen. Ohio State hosted the fi rst round of the conference playoff s for the fi rst time under the league’s new postseason format. Th e Buckeyes swept Minnesota State once again to advance to the WCHA semifi nals at Ridder Arena in Minneapolis, where OSU

fell to eventual national champion Wisconsin. Th e Buckeyes fi nished the year ranked No. 10 in both the fi nal USCHO and USA Today/USA Hockey polls. During the season, several Buckeyes posted record-set-ting performances, led by senior Amber Bowman who became OSU’s all-time leading scorer for a defenseman with 102 points. She was just the third Buckeye to surpass the 100-point mile-stone, and also fi nished second in career assists with 73. Another senior, Erika Vanderveer, had a stellar fi nal season to secure her name atop almost all Ohio State goaltending re-cords – both season and career. Junior forward Erin Keys had a breakout season and led the team with 48 points, the second-highest point total in a single season in OSU history, to rank sixth in the WCHA in overall scoring. Keys, Bowman, Tessa Bonhomme and Lisa Chesson were each named to All-WCHA teams, the most selections for Ohio State. Bonhomme, a junior defenseman, was further recognized and became OSU’s third All-American after being named to the RBK/AHCA All-America Second Team. She also was the fourth Buckeye to be named a Top 10 fi nalist for the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award. Junior forward Jody Heywood was one of fi ve fi nalists from both men’s and women’s hockey on the Division I and III levels for the Hockey Humanitarian Award, the fi rst Buckeye fi nalist for the national award.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

MEN’S LACROSSE The Ohio State men’s lacrosse team put together a 9-5 led-ger in 2007 and fi nished second in the Great Western Lacrosse League with a 4-1 record. The squad was led by seven All-GWLL selections, including four fi rst-team choices in junior midfi elder Kevin Buchanan, sophomore attackman Joel Dalgarno, junior longstick middie Ricky Pages and senior defenseman Jeff Schneider. Junior de-fensive midde Josh Funk was named to the second team, along with sophomore midfi elder Jeff Ryan and junior goalie Stefan Schroder. Dalgarno led the Buckeyes with a career-best 50 points, the fi rst 50-point season for the Buckeyes since 2003 (Curtis Smith/53) and ranking17th (tied) in program history for a single season. Buchanan had a career-high and team-best 29 assists and was second on the squad with a personal-high 48 points. Five Buckeyes picked up Great Western Lacrosse League Player of the Week honors. Buchanan was the fi rst honoree Feb. 28, after recording a game-high and career-best six assists and seven points in the Buckeyes’ 13-4 win over Harvard. Senior Jason Lutz was honored March 14 for his hat trick and four-point game in OSU’s come-from-behind victory at Penn State. Dalgarno won the award April 4 following his career-best fi ve assist and eight-point performance in the Buckeyes’ win over Quinnipiac to open GWLL play. Rookie Mario Ventiquattro was the recipient April 23, after he had six combined points, includ-ing four goals, in Ohio State’s wins at Air Force and Denver. In OSU’s overtime win against the Pioneers, Ventiquattro had his fi rst hat trick, including the OT winner, and added an assist for his fi rst four-point game for the Scarlet and Gray. Schroder was honored May 9 after making 13 saves and allowing just six goals in a win over Army. Both Buchanan and Dalgarno carried scoring streaks through-out the season. Buchanan extended his to 29 games, dating back to May 1, 2005, with 49 goals, 42 assists and 91 points over the stretch. Dalgarno, whose streak began in his fi rst game as a Buck-eye Feb. 18, 2006, has a point in each of the last 27 games, with 53-38-91 totals. Buchanan ended the year with the eighth-longest streak in the nation, while Dalgarno’s stretch is the 11th-best. The Buckeyes led the nation in man-down defense, stopping 83.9 percent of their opponents’ chances. The squad also ranked in the Top 9 nationally in scoring margin (seventh), scoring of-fense (eighth), scoring defense (ninth) and face-off win percent-age (ninth).

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

ROWING Th e Ohio State rowing team continued its tradition of suc-cess in 2007, capping off the season with an eighth-consecutive NCAA championship appearance where the Buckeyes fi nished third as a team. Ohio State also claimed its fi fth Central Region championship in a row at the Aramark Central/South Region Sprints. Th e OSU fi rst varsity eight boat began the season ranked sixth in the Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association/USRowing poll and quickly climbed to No. 3 after opening the season with two upsets. Th e Buckeyes defeated top-ranked Princeton, the defending national 1V8 champs, to open the season March 24 and followed with a win over then-No. 2 Virginia March 31 at the ACC/Big Ten Duals. For their performances the crew earned Big Ten Boat of the Week honors following both races. After racing to a 7-1 regular-season record and holding the No. 3 ranking in the nation for four weeks, the fi rst varsity eight and other Buckeye boats headed to Madison, Wis., to compete in the Big Ten championship. While OSU did not defend its 2006 crown, the Buckeyes placed third to continue their streak of fi nishing in the Top 3 for all eight years. Th e team then traveled to Oak Ridge, Tenn., where for the fi fth year in a row Ohio State fi nished atop the Central Region team standings with 366 points to secure the regional champi-onship as both the fi rst varsity eight and fi rst varsity four raced in their grand fi nals. At the NCAA championships also at Oak Ridge, the Buck-eyes were one of just three teams to advance to the grand fi nals in both the fi rst and second varsity eights. Th e second varsity eight took fi fth in its race while the fi rst varsity eight upset previ-ously undefeated Southern California to place second, the high-est fi nish for any Buckeye boat at the national championships. As a team, Ohio State took third in the overall standings, also a record high for the program. Th e Buckeyes totaled 52 points to tie the team record set in 2006. Senior Annabelle Fago, a four-year member of the fi rst var-sity eight crew, earned CRCA All-America honors for the fourth time in her career, receiving fi rst team honors. Junior Gabriele Albertaviciute also was named First Team All-America to go along with her fi rst team All-Big Ten honors. It was the fourth time since 2003 two Buckeyes have been named First Team All-America. Both Fago and Albertaviciute were named CRCA First Team All-Central Region along with Jessica Shepherd and Brio-ny Clare, a second team selection. Shepherd was a Second Team All-Big Ten honoree as well. Since 2000, Ohio State has gar-nered 16 First Team and 15 Second Team All-Big Ten awards. Th e Buckeyes continued her strong performances in the classroom as well, with a program high six student-athletes rec-ognized as CRCA National Scholar Athletes. Senior co-captain Justine Mahler was an ESPN Th e Magazine Academic All-Dis-trict IV At-Large selection, and she along with 19 others were named Academic All-Big Ten.

(3) Penn State/Nike Classic, State College, Pa.; (4) Big Ten Championship, hosted by Ohio State, Columbus, Ohio

By the time November arrived, Ohio State was one of the hottest men’s soccer teams in the country. The Buckeyes secured the No. 2 seed in the Big Ten Championship and advanced to the title games as hosts in Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. That, and an 8-2-1 record in their fi nal 11 games, should have been enough to put Ohio State in its third-consecutive NCAA tour-nament.

But when the 48-team fi eld of the national tournament was announced Nov. 6, Ohio State’s name was not called. And with it, the Buckeyes’ season came to a halt with an 11-7-3 overall record. OSU was 3-2-1 in the Big Ten and its No. 2 seed was its third in a row.

“We can’t say it was an unsuccessful season with an 11-7-3 fi nal record against the quality of opponents we faced,” head coach John Bluem said. “After a slow start on the road, our turn-around was made possible by a super effort from the guys. They never gave up on accomplishing our goals, one of which was the NCAA tournament. We know we were a special team and that we should have been in the NCAA tournament. This ranks as one of the better teams in my 10 years here. The ‘Sweet 16” team in 2004 and the Big Ten championship team in 2000 were special, but this was a very technical team capable of playing with anyone.”

The Buckeyes moved up to No. 5 in the NSCAA Great Lakes Region following the Big Ten Championship. During the regu-lar season, Ohio State was ranked as high as No. 20 in the coun-try in 2006 (Sept. 5).

Ohio State’s six seniors were honored on Senior Day Oct. 29 prior to the Buckeyes’ 2-0 win over Michigan State. During the last four years they helped guide the Buckeyes to 38 wins and back-to-back NCAA tournament appearances, including a trip to the Sweet 16 in 2004. Seniors, with games played, include de-fender Jim Fisher (66), midfi elder Antonio Garcia (41), defender Dustin Kirby (82), midfi elder Taylor Korpieski (67), midfi elder Brent Rohrer (79) and midfi elder Rob Strachan (67). Kirby was drafted by Real Salt Lake in January, becoming Ohio State’s sev-enth MLS draft pick.

In the fi rst 44 seasons of Ohio State men’s soccer (1953-96), the Buckeyes won 10 or more games eight times. In the last 10 seasons, all under head coach John Bluem, Ohio State has al-ready equaled that total with eight seasons of 10 or more wins.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

WOMEN’S SOCCERThe 2006 version of women’s soccer featured one of the most

prolifi c scoring trios in the history of the program in Lisa Collison, Lara Dickenmann and Lisa Grubb. The Buckeyes boasted its lead-ing scorers from the 2001, 2002 and 2004 seasons on the 2006 roster and the three combined for 60 points on 22 goals and 16 assists. Their scoring profi ciency helped head coach Lori Walker earn her 100th Buckeye victory against Xavier in a 2-0 win. In her fi nal season with the Scarlet and Gray, Grubb etched her way into the program record books, becoming the all-time leader in goals (35), assists (25) and points (95). After fi nishing fi fth in the Big Ten Conference at the end of the regular season, Ohio State made its 11th appearance in the league tournament, hosted by Penn State in State College, Pa. Five Buckeyes earned All-Big Ten honors with Collison, Dickenmann and Melissa Miller leading the way with fi rst-team honors. Grubb was a second-team recipient and Amanda Ball was Ohio State’s Sportsmanship Award honoree.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

SOFTBALLA LOOK BACK AT 2007

It was a historic season for the Ohio State softball program. A 17-year wait for a Big Ten championship came to an end as the Buckeyes swept Penn State May 5-6 to win the program’s second Big Ten title and cap their fi rst ever perfect regular-season at home. Ohio State then hosted and won its fi rst Big Ten tournament, beating sixth-ranked Northwestern 2-1 in the championship game to earn its fi rst automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. Remaining at home for Regionals, the Buckeyes won back-to-back NCAA tournament games for the fi rst time and came within one win of a trip to Super Regionals.

When the dust settled, the Buckeyes had put together a 40-18 overall record, marking the program’s fourth 40-win season. Ohio State made its fourth NCAA tournament appearance in the last six years and its fi rst ever back-to-back appearances.

The 2007 seniors are the fi rst class to win at least 30 games each of their four years at Ohio State. During the last four years, Ohio State collected 146 wins, making the 2007 senior class the fi fth-winningest class in program history. The fi ve-mem-ber senior class includes four-year members Christina Douglas, Nycole Koyano, Jamee Juarez and Megan Schwab and two-year member Lauren Daykin.

A TOP PROGRAM ADDS MORESince 2000, the Buckeyes have won 301 games, which is the

third-highest win total in the Big Ten during that time. Ohio State’s .647 winning percentage and average win total of 37.6 games rank fourth in the Big Ten this decade.

The 2007 Buckeyes are the fourth team in Ohio State soft-ball history to win at least 40 games in a season, joining teams in 1994, 2001 and 2002. Combined with 39 wins last year, Ohio State’s win total of 79 during the last two years ranks third all-time in the program among back-to-back year win totals.

BUCKEYE FIELD GOES OUT IN STYLELast February a $5.1 million renovation project was an-

nounced for Buckeye Field, home of Ohio State softball since 1988, and the team made its fi nal year in its current home its best ever. The Buckeyes got to celebrate two trophy presenta-tions on their home fi eld, the fi rst coming May 6 with the Big Ten championship and the next coming May 12 with the Big Ten tournament title.

The Buckeyes played 15 of their fi nal 16 games at home and ended the season 21-2 overall at Buckeye Field, which tied the 2006 team for the best home winning percentage. Before suf-fering two losses to Cal State Fullerton May 20, Ohio State had rattled off a program-record 27 consecutive home wins dating back to mid-April 2006.

The win over sixth-ranked Northwestern in the Big Ten tournament championship game May 12 marked the highest-ranked opponent ever beaten by Ohio State at Buckeye Field.

AWARDS HANDED OUT AT BANQUETThe team’s annual postseason banquet was held June 3 in

Ohio Stadium, with 11 team awards handed out and the Buck-eyes’ fi ve seniors honored. Senior Jamee Juarez was named the team’s Most Valuable Player for the third-consecutive season, marking the fi rst time a Buckeye was named MVP three times. Juarez was also named the Pitcher of the Year for the second time in her career and the Most Improved Scholar-Athlete.

Freshman Sam Marder was named the Offensive Player of the Year, marking the fi rst time a freshman took home the honor. Marder was also named the Rookie of the Year. Senior shortstop Nycole Koyano was named the Defensive Player of the Year, while senior Christina Douglas received the Coaches’ Award and the Buckeye Power Club Award. Sophomore Kim Reeder earned the Scholar-Athlete of the Year, sophomore Courtney Pruner was named the Most Improved Player and freshman Whitney Cooper took home the Buckeye Spirit Award.

KALAFATIS BIG TEN COACH OF THE YEAR, SEVEN BUCKEYES HONORED

Linda Kalafatis was named the Big Ten Coach of the Year and seven members of the Big Ten champion Buckeyes received

all-conference honors. For the third time in program history, Ohio State received three fi rst-team selections, while the coach of the year honor for Kalafatis is her second (2002).

The three fi rst-team selections included senior Jamee Juarez at the utility position, freshman catcher Sam Marder and sopho-more outfi elder Courtney Pruner. Juarez was the fourth Buckeye in program history to earn all-conference honors all four years.

Junior second baseman Brittany Vanderink was named sec-ond-team, while earning third-team honors were senior fi rst baseman Christina Douglas, senior outfi elder Megan Schwab and senior designated player Lauren Daykin.

The NFCA all-region teams were announced May 16 and three Buckeyes were named to the Great Lakes All-Region Team. Juarez was a fi rst-team selection at the utility position, while Marder was a fi rst-team pick at catcher. Vanderink was a second-team honoree at second base.

OHIO STATE AT A GLANCEAfter seeing its record dip to 14-12 on March 21, Ohio State

went 26-6 the rest of the way, winning the Big Ten regular season and tournament championships and upping its home winning streak to 27 in a row dating back to 2006. The Buckeyes were 6-5 against ranked teams during the season, with wins coming against (ranking at time of game) No. 13 Virginia Tech (5/19), No. 6 Northwestern (5/12), at No. 7 Northwestern (4/13) and on neutral fi elds over No. 26 Virginia Tech (3/10), No. 17 Cal (2/24) and No. 22 Fresno State (2/23).

In Big Ten games only, Ohio State led the Big Ten in batting (.319) and fi elding (.973) and ranked third in pitching (2.50 ERA). Overall, the Buckeyes batted .292 as a team, compared to .221 by their opponents. The pitching staff owned a 2.37 ERA, which was almost two full runs lower than the opposi-tion (4.11).

At the plate, the Buckeyes were led by freshman Sam Marder (.359, 10 HR, 49 RBI, 44 BB). Four other Buckeyes hit over .300, including sophomore Courtney Pruner (.336, 7 HR, 37 RBI), junior Brittany Vanderink (.333, 37 R, 16 SB), senior Christina Douglas (.303, 26 RBI) and senior Nycole Koyano (.302, 42 R, 18 SB).

In the circle, senior Jamee Juarez (21-9, 1.66 ERA, 240 strikeouts) and sophomore Kim Reeder (17-8, 2.62 ERA) com-bined to start 55 of Ohio State’s 58 games. Juarez set Ohio State single-season records for strikeouts and saves (5) and set fi ve ca-reer records during the season (see later note).

Big Ten coach of the year Linda Kalafatis wrapped up her 11th year at Ohio State and is one of three coaches in the Big Ten with more than 600 wins.

IN THE CAREER RECORD BOOK...Senior Nycole Koyano led Ohio State in both runs scored

and stolen bases all four years, becoming the fi rst Buckeye to lead the team in those two statistics every year of their career. Koyano is the second Buckeye to lead the team in any offensive statistic all four years, joining Kristine Himes, who led Ohio State in home runs from 2000-03. In the OSU career record book, Koyano ranks second in runs (158), triples (14), walks (117) and stolen bases (76). No other Buckeye in program his-tory ranks as high in as many categories. Koyano also ranks sixth all-time in at bats (665) and hits (210).

Senior Megan Schwab ended her career with 47 doubles, which rank second in OSU history, and 18 home runs and 116 RBI, which both rank fourth. Her 668 at bats and 124 runs both rank fi fth all-time, her 207 hits are seventh and her .328 batting average is 10th.

JUAREZ REWRITES RECORD BOOKSFew pitchers at any level had a stretch of games quite like

senior Jamee Juarez had in the fi nal month of the season to cap off a career in which she set fi ve Ohio State career pitching re-cords and four single-season records. Her efforts were rewarded with fi rst-team All-Big Ten and all-region honors and a most outstanding player honor from the Big Ten tournament.

Prior to a loss to Cal State Fullerton May 20, Juarez had gone 12-0 with 115 strikeouts, nine walks and a 0.68 ERA in 71.2 innings pitched. During those fi ve weeks, Juarez threw eight complete games in 10 starts, pitched a perfect game and set OSU all-time pitching records for wins (76), shutouts (27), innings pitched (746.1) and strikeouts (747). In addition, her single-season total of 240 strikeouts and fi ve saves as a senior were also school records.

Of Juarez’s nine losses during season, six came to teams including No. 1 Arizona, No. 5 Arizona State, No. 7 North-western, No. 9 Oklahoma, No. 26 Virginia Tech and Cal State Fullerton in the NCAA tournament.

In addition, Juarez ended her career ranked third all-time at Ohio State in runs batted in with 127, sixth in doubles with 39 and tied for sixth in home runs with 14.

MEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING

BIG TEN CHAMPIONSHIPSColumbus, OhioTeam Standings - Final 1. Minnesota 612.52. Michigan 608.53. Ohio State 4954. Indiana 4045. Northwestern 4706. Purdue 375.57. Penn State 2958. Wisconsin 245.59. Michigan State 11810. Iowa 106

The Ohio State men’s swimming and diving team completed its second year in the Bill and Mae McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion in 2006-07 with a 6-3 overall record. In the six dual meets that the Buckeyes hosted, they emerged victorious in half of them. The men also completed a perfect 4-0 non-conference dual-meet season. Freshman Mark Neiman set the tone for the season for the Buckeyes when he broke a school record in the 1,000-yard freestyle at the Scarlet and Gray meet. From there, the men saw a total of nine school records fall during the season. The Buckeyes played host to the Big Ten Swimming and Diving men’s championships for the fi rst time since 1979. In its home pool, Ohio State recorded its highest Big Ten fi nish since 1996 with a third-place team performance. The fi nish also was a two-place and 137.5-point improvement from 2006. During the conference meet, 14 swimmers posted 26 NCAA provisional times, including fi ve relays. The Buckeyes also eclipsed fi ve individual and three relay school records. A number of Buckeyes received honors for their performances during the three-day Big Ten competition. Kellen Harkness and Burkley Showe shared the Big Ten Diver of the Meet award. Harkness was named the Big Ten Diver of the Year, and Showe was named Co-Big Ten Freshman of the Meet. Head diving coach Vince Panzano was named Big Ten Diving Coach of the Year for the sixth time in his career. Ohio State also placed three Buckeyes on the All-Big Ten First Team when the divers completed the fi rst sweep of the diving events by a conference team since 1995. Joe Doyle and Nate King were also named to the All-Big Ten Second Team. Ohio State also moved up on the national scene. The Buckeyes maintained a No. 13 ranking on the CSCAA poll throughout the dual-meet season. However, after sending 12 athletes to the 2007 NCAA Championships, the team garnered its highest fi nish of 12th since 1983. The placing is also the highest under the tutelage of head swimming coach Bill Wadley. At the championships, Harkness became a three-time All-American, while another 11 Buckeyes earned Honorable Mention All-American status. During the meet, three records were broken, including two relays. Harkness ended his collegiate career with a second-place fi nish on the 3-meter at the NCAA championships. He also was awarded the Big Ten Medal of Honor for his academic and athletic achievements. Doyle joined him as a Big Ten Medal of Honor fi nalist.

It was a new look for the 2007 synchronized swimming team, as 12 freshmen comprised the roster compared to one senior. However, the expectations remained the same and despite some setbacks during the season, the Buckeyes fi nished second at the U.S. Collegiate National Championships and improved their performance in the U.S. National Championships by one place to third after fi nishing fourth in 2006. Ohio State continued its dominance at the North Regional championships, winning its 16th title since the event’s inception in 1990. Ohio State also held its inaugural Jessica Beck Memorial Meet in honor of swimmer Jessica Beck, who died in 2005.

2006-07 YEAR IN REVIEW

MEN’S TENNIS Head coach Ty Tucker and members of the 2006-07 men’s tennis team fi nished third in the fi nal Intercollegiate Tennis Association national rankings. The No. 3 ranking marked the seventh-consecutive year the Buckeyes fi nished in the Top 25. The Buckeyes fi nished No. 5 in 2006, No. 24 in 2005, No. 12 in 2004, No. 17 in 2003, No. 21 in 2002 and No. 22 in 2001. Ohio State concluded the 2007 season in record-setting form. Its 30-2 overall record is the best in school history. The Buckeyes won the outright Big Ten regular season title by going 10-0, then went on to claim the tournament title by beating No. 10 Illi-nois in the fi nal, 4-1. In his eight-year tenure with the Buckeyes, Tucker is 186-45 overall and 85-17 against Big Ten opponents. After Ohio State’s 15 home wins this season, the team ex-tended its home win streak to 57 matches. With the home wins, the Buckeyes went undefeated in their home schedule for the fourth-consecutive season. OSU was undefeated at home in 2004 with 14 victories, went 11-0 in 2005 and 14-0 in 2006. The home win streak dates back to the 2003 season, starting with a 5-2 win over Purdue April 6. The Buckeyes received their eighth-consecutive bid to the NCAA team championships, where they advanced to the quar-terfi nals, equaling their best showing in the NCAA tournament. In fi rst round action, Ohio State hosted its second-consecutive NCAA tournament match and defeated Columbia, 4-0. The Buckeyes went on to beat Tennessee, 4-0, in the second round before traveling to Georgia for the round of 16 where they beat LSU, 4-0.

The women’s tennis team fi nished the 2006-07 campaign 18-10 overall, tying for the second-most wins in program history. During the year, the squad put together seven-consecutive wins, the team’s longest winning streak since the 2002 squad opened the year with eight-consecutive victories. Eight of the Buckeyes’ victories were 7-0 shutouts, tying the program record for white-washes in a season. The Buckeyes entered the national rankings March 27 after beating then-No. 16 Wichita State and No. 51 Minnesota, along with No. 11 (Division II) Florida Gulf Coast. The win over the Shockers was the Buckeyes’ fi rst over a Top 20-ranked team since beating No. 20 Illinois May 1, 2004. The 2007 Buckeyes reached a peak of 43rd in the national polls and ended the year in the 52nd spot. Ohio State was 6-4 in the Big Ten to fi nish fi fth, its highest fi nish since the 2004 squad tied for second when results were adjusted after the Big Ten tournament. Individually, freshman Christina Keesey and sophomore Julie Voss tied for the team lead with 23 singles wins each. Voss had a team-best 17 dual-match wins, followed by Keesey with 16 and freshman Ally Mueller with 15. In doubles, senior Sonia Ru-zimovsky had a team-high 22 overall wins, followed by Caitlin O’Keefe, her doubles partner, with 21. Keesey earned Big Ten Player of the Week accolades March 21, the fi rst time a Buckeye was honored since February 2004. Ruzimovsky ended her Buckeye career 13th in program his-tory in doubles wins (62) and tied for 15th in singles wins (62).

Ohio State posted a solid season under fi rst year head coach Robert Gary. Gary took over for Russ Rogers, who coached the Buckeyes to three Big Ten team titles in his 18 years as head coach. During the indoor season, the Buckeyes improved from sixth in 2006 to fourth in 2007. The Buckeyes featured three Big Ten champions in juniors Anthony Cole and Lenny Jatsek and sophomore Jeff See. Jatsek continued Ohio State’s dominance in the weight throw by bringing the league crown back to Columbus for the fi fth-consecutive year. It was the second-straight Big Ten title for Jatsek in the weight. See ran one of the best mile times in the country with his mark of 4:00.62. His mark was the second-best in Ohio State history and was one of the top times in the country. During the outdoor season, See took a redshirt but while competing unattached ran a 3:58.70 mile. See is the fi rst Buckeye to break four minutes and it was the sixth-best time in the country. Cole scored more points than any other individual at the Big Ten indoor championships by taking the league title in the 200-meter dash and second in the 60-meter dash. Elon Simms was impressive in the outdoor season in the 400-meter hurdles and fi nished second at the Big Ten Championships in a season best time of 50.79. That mark helped Simms earn second-team All-Big Ten honors. Simms also helped the 4x400-meter relay team to a Top 5 fi nish at the NCAA Mideast Regional.

The 2006-07 season marked the debut of Tom Ryan as head coach of the Buckeyes. After being appointed in April of 2006, Ryan immediately took the next step to bringing OSU wrestling to the forefront of not only the Big Ten Conference, but the na-tion. He named former Buckeye and two-time NCAA national champion (2002 and 2004) Tommy Rowlands assistant coach, along with U.S. World Team and former Edinboro assistant coach Lou Rosselli. Not ending there, Ryan added Iowa State graduate and 2002 NCAA national champion Joe Heskett as a volunteer assistant coach. The Buckeyes began the open tournament season on a high note, placing seven wrestlers in the Top 10 at the Michigan State Open, notably J.D. Bergman, who fi nished fi rst at 197 pounds. Less than a week later, Ohio State welcomed No. 3 Missouri to St. John Arena. Although OSU dropped a 30-9 decision, it rebounded with a dramatic upset over No. 9 Cornell in Ithaca, N.Y. The Scarlet and Gray came back in the fi nal bout at 133 pounds courtesy of a 5-3 decision by T.J. Enright. Redshirt-fresh-man Mike Pucillo highlighted the Las Vegas Invitational, winning the 184-pound weight class. After more than a month since opening their season in St. John Arena, the Buckeyes returned home to host Chattanooga before hitting the road again for the Southern Scuffl e in Greensboro, N.C. While down South, the Scarlet and Gray fi nished 10th, thanks to Top 8 fi nishes by Bergman (second), Chris Vondruska (fi fth) and Lance Palmer (seventh). Four of Ohio State’s next eight duals took place in St. John Arena with the team going 6-2 during that stretch, including wins over No. 16 Indiana and No. 19 Michigan State. Enright was again at the center of the Buckeyes’ victory vs. the Spartans, upsetting No. 1 ranked and undefeated Nick Simmons, 4-2. A trip to St. Edward High School in Lakewood, Ohio, followed and for the third-consecutive match, Ohio State beat a ranked opponent after knocking off No. 10 Northwestern, 18-16. The Buckeyes’ last three duals were on the road at Michigan, Iowa and Illinois before they headed to the Big Ten Championships, hosted by Michigan State in East Lansing, Mich. After fi nishing ninth in the league championships, the Scar-let and Gray qualifi ed six Buckeyes in Enright, J Jaggers, Palmer, Vondruska, Pucillo and Bergman to the NCAA Championships in Detroit. Four – Jaggers, Palmer, Pucillo and Bergman – went on to earn All-America honors, lifting Ohio State to a 10th-place fi nish with 54.5 points.
