(UNI) IRVING, Texas – Northern Iowa redshirt freshman Parker Keckeisen was tabbed the Big 12 Wrestler of the Week after picking up a ranked victory over Oklahoma State’s Dakota Geer.

Keckeisen earned a sudden-victory win over returning All-American and 2020 Big 12 third-place wrestler Geer. He earned a takedown in a wild scramble in the overtime period to give Geer his first loss of the season.

Keckeisen is 6-0 on the year and 2-0 in duals. He has two major decisions and a tech fall on the year. This is the first weekly award for Keckeisen.

He is the second Panther wrestler to earn Wrestler of the Week honors joining Brody Teske.

The Panthers travel to Northern Illinois Friday evening for the final dual outside the state of Iowa.
