COLUMBUS, Ohio -- No. 6 Ohio State (13-2, 5-1) will celebrate its seniors Sunday prior to the home finale vs. Indiana (6-2, 3-2). Match time is set for noon with B1G+ providing the live stream.

The Ohio State Department of Athletics and its wrestling program will recognize seniors Sammy Sasso, Nick Boykin and Gavin Hoffman during prematch ceremonies Sunday.

Ohio State split matches at No. 1 Penn State (L, 28-9) and at No. 14 Rutgers (W, 22-12) last week. The No. 6 Buckeyes enter their final home dual of the year against the Hoosiers with a record of 13-2 overall and 5-1 in the Big Ten.
There were three-consecutive upsets in the win over the Scarlet Knights. Luke Geog started with a 4-3 win at 197 over No. 12 John Poznanski. Heavyweight Nick Feldman then earned a 4-2 victory over No. 7 Yaraslau Slavikouski before 125-pounder Brendan McCrone took down No. 13 Dean Peterson, 7-1.
The Buckeyes improved to 12-1 overall and 4-0 in the Big Ten with a dramatic win over No. 13 Michigan Jan. 26 at the Covelli Center in Columbus. Down 19-17 headed to the final bout of the night, Feldman defeated No. 4 Lucas Davison of Michigan, 4-3, to give the Buckeyes the 20-19 victory.
Feldman's efforts earned him the Big Ten and NCAA Wrestler of the Week (Jan. 30). It was his second Big Ten honor and fourth for the Buckeyes.
Feldman also was awarded his Ohio State "Black Shirt" last week. He is the 16th Buckeye and ninth on the current roster to earn Black Shirt status. Go to the last two pages of these notes for more on the Ohio State Black Shirts.
Sophomore Jesse Mendez has scored 51 team points for the Buckeyes this year to lead the team. He has added bonus points in nine of 11 dual wins.
Redshirt freshman Nic Bouzakis (133) has contributed 44 points to Ohio State team scores in 10 of 14 duals in which he has competed. He has seven bonus-point victories in duals this year.
Feldman owns 10 dual wins, six by bonus for a total of 42 team points this year.
This will be the 89th dual between the Buckeyes and Hoosiers. Ohio State owns a 52-34-2 record in the series. The Buckeyes have won the last 12 overall and 20 of the last 22. Eleven of the last 12 meetings in Columbus have gone to the Buckeyes.
