Oklahoma State did it again! The Cowboy staff has seen another notable recruit from the Class of 2025 flip his commitment and give OSU a verbal. The latest is Tucson Sunnyside, Arizona’s Sergio Vega, who was previously committed to Cornell.
Just last weekend, Vega was in action at the Super 32. Vega won the championship belt at 138 lbs - after finishing as a runner-up in 2023.
Vega was also recently in action at the Who’s Number One dual meet. He defeated rival Drew Gorman (Buford, GA) 12-5 to make his case for a number one ranking at 138 lbs. Vega currently sits at number two in the nation at the weight.
His win over Gorman was the second in three months. Vega also prevailed over the Virginia Tech recruit in the Junior National freestyle finals in Fargo. It was his second All-American honor (4th in 2023) in that style and age group.
Also in 2024, Vega captured a national title at NHSCA Junior Nationals.
The addition of Vega will give Oklahoma State a pair of Sunnyside High School products in the room. Former Penn State two-time national champion, Roman Bravo-Young, has joined the Cowboy RTC while training for international competition. He represented Mexico at the 2024 Olympic Games.
Vega is now the fourth top-60 recruit to switch his commitment to Oklahoma State since the hiring of David Taylor as head coach. He is currently ranked #17 overall in the Class of 2025. #16 Cody Routledge (OK), #20 Landon Robideau (MN), and #56 Austin Johnson (PA) are the three others.
A verbal from Vega might give Oklahoma State the best Class of 2025 in the country. They have 11 verbals from ten Big Boarder’s. Five of the 11 are ranked in the top-20 among high school seniors. Seven are ranked in the top-100.
Vega projects at the 141/149 lb weight class for the Cowboys. There is youth and talent at both weights for Oklahoma State; however, under Taylor, there is a renewed intensity in regaining their billing as college wrestling’s top team, so they’ll need all the firepower they can get.
