13 @MIZZOUWRESTLING 13 BRIAN SMITH 20 th Season as Mizzou Head Coach Michigan State, 1990 Career Record: Mizzou Record: NWCA Coach of the Year 2007 Dan Gable Coach of the Year 8 NCAA National Champions 47 NCAA All-Americans 42 Conference Champions 6 Conference Titles 2 Dan Hodge Trophies THE SMITH FILE COACHING HONORS MAC Coach of the Year 2012 Big 12 Coach of the Year NWCA President 2017 NWCA Coach of the Year 2007 Dan Gable Coach of the Year Over the past 19 years, Brian Smith and the men that have gone through his Mizzou Wrestling program have claimed individual Big 12 and MAC Conference Champions, improved grade-point averages, record-setting attendances, a No. 1 national ranking and Missouri s first-ever NCAA National Champion. His unique #TigerStyle training program has molded today s team into a national powerhouse that looks to contend for the program s first team NCAA title. Since being introduced as Missouri s Head Wrestling Coach May 5, 1998, Smith has demanded nothing but the best from himself, his coaches and his wrestlers. Owning 15 consecutive seasons with a dual record at or above.500, beginning with the season, Smith has coached 22 All-Americans to 42 top-eight performances and five Tigers to seven national championships. The winningest coach in program history, Smith has compiled a record at Missouri over his 19 season tenure. On Nov. 15, 2014 in the team s season opener, Smith and his Tigers claimed a 54-0 victory over Truman State and gave the legendary coach his 200th career win at Mizzou. Smith s 100th career victory came on Dec. 9, 2006 in Mount Pleasant, Mich., as the team bested then-no. 11 Central Michigan, The win made Smith just the second Tiger wrestling coach to reach the 100-win plateau. With a.721 career winning percentage, Smith holds the highest winning percentage in Mizzou wrestling history. Smith has taken home six consecutive conference Coach of the Year honors dating back to 2012, including five straight awards by the MAC league office. Additionally, in May 2007, Smith was honored with the Dan Gable Coach of the Year Award, presented by W.I.N. Magazine, and in March 2017, Smith was named the NWCA Coach of the Year following the Tigers fifth-place finish at the NCAA Championships. Five Tiger wrestlers have reached the pinnacle of collegiate wrestling, collecting eight NCAA Championships under Smith s tenure, beginning with Ben Askren. During Askren s Tiger career, Smith guided the 174-pound grappler Askren to the program s first backto-back National Championship titles (2006 and 2007). On March 21, 2009, Mark Ellis became the second Missouri wrestler in program history to collect top honors. Wrestling at heavyweight, Ellis bested his opponent, 3-2, in overtime with Smith coaching from the corner. In March 2010, Max Askren became the third national champion in the history of the program, as he dominated the No. 1 seed in the 184-pound weight class by a 10-3 score. After a four-year drought, true freshman J den Cox claimed the program s fifth national title in after defeating Ohio State s Nick Heflin, 2-1. A year later, redshirt senior Drake Houdashelt concluded his historical Tiger Style career with a 149 pound National Championship at 2015 NCAA s. On March 19, 2016, Cox returned to the top of the podium at Madison Square Garden, becoming the second two-time NCAA Champ in program history. Cox defeated No. 1 seed Morgan McIntosh (Penn State), 4-2, to capture the title at 197 pounds. Then, on March 18, 2017, Cox became the first ever three-time NCAA National Champion in program and Mizzou Athletics history after defeating Minnesota s Brett Pfarr, 8-2 at the NCAA Championships in St. Louis, Mo. The 2017 season saw numerous program records fall, as Smith led Mizzou to a fifth-place finish at the NCAA Championships, its seventh NCAA top-10 finish under Smith and eighth overall. At the NCAA Champioships, five Tigers earned All-America honors and three reached the NCAA Finals, both program records. At the MAC Championships, six Tigers stood atop the podium as conference champions, also a program best. Additionally, Smith has helped guide two wrestlers to the Olympics. Ben Askren was the first wrestler in program history to compete in the summer games with an appearance in the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics, followed by J den Cox, who won bronze at the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics this past summer. The whirlwind summer for Cox included trips to Iowa City, New York City, Los Angeles, Mongolia and Germany, all serving as qualifying or tune-up tournaments leading up to Rio. In four Olympic matches, Cox was not taken down once, an incredible feat for a wrestler who had under five months to prepare for freestyle competition after the completion of the folkstyle wrestling season. Cox narrowly missed out on the opportunity to wrestle for gold, falling 2-1 in the semifinals before defeating Cuba s Reineris Salas Perez in the bronze medal match. Cox was awarded a two-point takedown in the closing seconds of the match after a video review. The match concluded after Perez failed to return to the mat after the video review, resulting in a disqualification.
