Dustin Plott: 'I'm Another Brick in the Wall for OSU Wrestling'

It is fair to say that Dustin Plott is more than just another piece to Oklahoma State's historic puzzle. And if Plott couldn't get any more impressive, he recently won the greatest trophy of them all when he married his long-time sweetheart. The wedding may not have taken place at Braum's, but the couple will have to settle for ice cream later. Plott recently sat down with OK State on SI to talk about his stellar wrestling career for the Cowboys.

The year was special, but what you did in your career was next level. How were you able to maintain such a high level of wrestling for such a long period of time?

"I would say the biggest factor in maintaining a high level for me was consistency. Being consistent with workouts, effort, and most importantly in my daily life is what I what believe helped me the most. Living by faith and doing the small things right consistently."

You will go down as one of the most decorated wrestlers in OSU history. Has the reality of your accomplishments set in yet?

"I don't consider myself one of the most decorated wrestlers in OSU history, but I really appreciate the compliment and am very grateful for my experiences at Oklahoma State. Oklahoma State wrestling has such a great history that just being a small part of it brings me joy. I am grateful to be 'another brick in the wall' of college sports' greatest dynasty!"

Wrestling really exploded to the forefront this season. What was it like being a part of an Oklahoma State program that burst into the spotlight?

"These past couple years have been great! To see the support for wrestling, especially in the Stillwater area grow throughout my collegiate career will be an unforgettable experience."

What is next for Dustin Plott and is an Olympic push in your future?

"I plan on continuing to compete as long as I have the love for the sport and competition. Looking forward to being apart of the Cowboy RTC and chasing World and Olympic titles."
