A transformed Dieringer seeks Olympic gold

The only light in Gallagher-Iba Arena at 11 p.m. is coming from the Oklahoma State wrestling room. The arena is quiet.

The only sound is the patter of Alex Dieringer’s feet on the mat and the occasional thud when his knee hits the floor during a takedown.

The Olympic hope-ful is not taking down an opponent. The only other person in the room is his roommate and teammate, Joe Schumacher, who is trying to keep up.

The two don’t speak. There’s no chance. Ten minutes in the steam room then back out on the mat. The same routine again and again during the hour.

Sprints. Three quick steps, then sprawl. Two stutter steps, then shoot. Back to the steam room. Five minutes later, the two burst from the steam room like bucking bulls out of the chute and repeat the actions. The closest Dieringer gets to a break is when he lies on the mat to do crunches.

“I’m done. It’s over,” Dieringer struggles to say the words between deep breaths.

When he finally left at midnight, Dieringer had spent six hours of his day at the wrestling room. Maybe it was the four-hour break he received in between practice and his personal workout that kept him going. Maybe it was the Rockstar energy drink he chugged moments before his late workout.

No matter what it is, it’s the reason why his ac-complishments read like a well-polished resume.

“It’s the success,” Dieringer said. “I’ve put so much work in; I think that’s a big thing. I’ve been doing this all year around

since the third grade.“When I got here,

everything changed. I was always motivated, but being around these people here, all the success there’s been, I think that’s been the big thing that really helped me.”

***In a program built on

a winning history, Dier-inger became part of the prosperity.

One hundred thirty-three wins. Four Big 12 Confer-ence championships. Four All-American honors. Three NCAA individual titles. One Hodge Trophy — given to the country’s top wrestler.

“One of our best here at Oklahoma State,” coach John Smith said. “He left a mark on our program for a lot of young people to get enthused about and try to follow.”

When Dieringer’s college career ended in March, Smith deemed him a top-five wrestler in Cowboy history. That honor became his proudest accomplishment.STORY CONTINUES ON PAGE 3

“Before I say or do anything, I’m always like, ‘What will people think of me?’” Dieringer said. “I think that’s a thing that helps before I do stuff. … I wanna be known as a great person. I don’t wanna be known as a bad person or a jerk. I also want to be recognized as one of the greatest. Coach Smith said it, and just to be able to hear that now is a big weight lifted off my shoulders.”

Winning was a habit for Dieringer during his time at OSU. It was like going to class every day. It became boring. When he won his fourth Big 12 title with a two-point decision,

he appeared pissed off. During a post-match inter-view, Dieringer responded to every question with short-winded answers.

Every match seemed pointless. Until his last.

In New York City, Dieringer claimed his third national title with a decision against Wis-consin’s Isaac Jordan. When the whistle blew and Dieringer’s career ended with another title, he changed. He stared in awe. He buried his head in his hands. He ran to the back of Madison Square Garden and told everyone about his feat.

Two days later, he broke down. The blood and sweat he had poured out the last five years turned

into tears.“I’m in love with this

sport,” he said. “I love the feeling of winning. For a while there, I thought I got sick of winning. After every time I won, I didn’t feel anything. It wasn’t any of that, but it was I still had more to go. I still had that third title to win.

“I was so emotional about it. I thought I was gonna take three days off and get back to (training), but I was just going so crazy in my head. I need-ed more time just to relax and get my mind right again. I’ve always been re-ally humble, but after my match I was just talking to everybody about it. I think that’s because I’ve been quiet for so long, and to

finally be able to do it and get that Hodge Trophy, I opened up more.”

The exuberance faded. It was time for work.

When Dieringer was a freshman in high school, he created a goal to be an Olympic gold medalist. Up to this point, Dieringer has accomplished every goal he has created. Now, he has one last task, the ultimate goal.

other Olympic hopefuls at GIA under the command of Smith, who won two Olympic gold medals as a wrestler. The OSU wres-tling room is filled with eight national champi-ons, one Olympic bronze STORY CONTINUES ON PAGE 4

medalist and two Olym-pic gold medalists. Eight former and one current Cowboy will compete at the Olympic Trials on Sat-urday and Sunday in Iowa City, Iowa. Six of them are training in Stillwater.

Smith shouts com-mands, and the Olympic hopefuls obey. He paces

around

the room to observe each wrestler during drills and gives advice. Dieringer practices with teammate Jonce Blaylock, who is supposed to serve as a mannequin while Dier-inger performs each new drill upon Smith’s request. Blaylock isn’t supposed to go hard during the drills, but he’s forced to.

“You’re gonna have to go live against him,” coach Eric Guerrero tells Blaylock.

Dieringer needed to be challenged. For the first time in his career, Dier-inger will be an underdog in Iowa City. He’s un-seeded at 74 kilograms after his third national title sealed a spot in the trials.

“I’m not the top dog anymore,” Dieringer said. “I’ve got three guys ahead of me, I believe. I’m ranked fourth in my eyes, but they don’t have me seeded right now. I’m the underdog now, but I’m gonna go in with the same mindset, though. I always think I’m gonna win, so I’m gonna keep doing it.”

Dieringer isn’t expected

to be in Rio de Janeiro when the Olympics start in August. He’s inexperi-enced. He’s young. He’s too far behind.

The fate of Dieringer’s future will be decided in a two-day span. For most, that’s a lot of pressure, but Dieringer is ignorant to pressure.

“I didn’t know what pressure was until this national tournament I just had,” he said. “I’m always real relaxed. I don’t really have anything going on in my head besides just going out there and wres-tling my style. I’ve gotten nervous before matches, but that’s not really pres-sure to me, though. After the whistle blows, first 10 seconds, I’m ready to go.”

***A trip to the Olympics

is the second phase of Di-eringer’s career. His final phase has also started. Dieringer never wants to leave the sport of wres-tling. When his career as an athlete ends, he’ll start coaching. Teaching is Di-eringer’s second passion.

After practice, Dieringer coaches an elementary wrestler. He had enough time to shower in the locker room and change before rushing back to the mat. The lesson starts with advice on girls before Di-eringer begins to recap the moves he taught his stu-dent the week before. He shows him a new move, Dieringer’s specialty, “The Shimmy.” Dieringer dem-

onstrates the move, then, despite being 90 pounds lighter, the young wrestler performs the move against Dieringer. He nails it on his second try. Dieringer looks around for a team-mate that stuck around to brag about how quickly his student learned the new move. The teach-ing doesn’t stop there. The teammate Dieringer bragged to is now on the mat to learn the move as well.

“This is where I stay,” Dieringer said. “I’ll be coaching after I’m done wrestling. I’ll give back to the sport that gave me so much.”

When Donnie Walton lined a pitch into his right foot March 29 against Arkansas, he experienced pain he never had.

He had fouled a ball off his foot only once before, earlier this season. Then, he was able to shake

it off. This time, the pain hung around.“It was something I’ve never felt before,”

Walton said. “It just did not feel right at all.”Walton, Oklahoma State’s shortstop, ex-

ited after five innings against the Razorbacks with a bruised right foot, giving way to Jacob Chappell.

Chappell started at shortstop in all three games of the Cowboys’ weekend series against West Virginia, with Walton pinch-

hitting Saturday before starting at designated hitter Sunday.

Walton’s start was the only game OSU (19-9 overall, 4-2 Big 12) won in the series, but Chappell filled in admirably, converting on all 13 of his defensive opportu-nities.

Walton said Wednesday he expects to be able to play shortstop this weekend when the Cowboys face Texas Tech (21-9, 8-1). Wal-ton’s return means Chappell will go back to his usual role of defensive ace off the bench.

A season ago, Chappell, a sophomore from Guthrie, was named to the Big 12 All-Freshman Team, playing in 55 games with 51 starts on the left side of the infield. This year, the emergence of junior college trans-fers Garrett Benge and J.R. Davis has pushed

Chappell into a bench role.Although he has played in 26 of OSU’s 28

games, often as a defensive replacement, he is averaging 1.81 plate appearances per game this season compared with 3.56 a year ago.

“It’s honestly hard,” Chappell said. “It’s not easy to stay locked in all the time, especially when you’re watching the game, and then, sometimes, coach (Josh Holliday) is just like, ‘Hey, get in there.’ I gotta stay plugged in, just like he says, and be ready for my chance to go out there and shine.”

Holliday said though Chappell’s number of at-bats has diminished, he hopes Chappell doesn’t view his role as any less important.

“I think it’s only diminished if he views his growth as diminished,” Holliday said.

“I think he’s continuing to work every single day like a guy who’s trying to get bet-ter, who’s not just satisfied with where he’s at, but rather wants to take that next step as a player.”

said he is confident in Chappell’s ability to step in again.

“Chap’s smooth sailing,” Walton said. “He’s so laid back, and that’s what we all love. He comes out here and does what we need him to do. He’s so laid-back, and we’re very lucky to have him.”

While presenting her research and answering questions from a panel of judges, OSU undergraduate student Christian Ley felt the reviewers at Research Day at the Capitol liked her research, but she had no idea they liked it so much that they would award her the grand prize at Research Day at the Capitol.

“I was so shocked,” said Ley, an Oklahoma State University junior from Broken Arrow. “I couldn’t believe I had won.”

Ley won the grand prize March 29 at the annual event organized by the Oklahoma Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR). The event attracted 24 of the state’s top undergraduate researchers, who presented their studies in the Oklahoma Capitol Rotunda.

Ley said she believed the judges liked her research because it’s especially relevant to Oklahoma. She is studying the ability of microalgae to treat wastewater, especially from hydraulic fracturing, while also providing the feedstock to produce biodiesel.

“In the future this technology may be used to treat wastewater that’s generated at hydraulic fracturing well sites,” said Ley. Now, wastewater is pumped back into the earth.

Ley has worked with her faculty adviser, Dr. Nurhan Dunford, professor of biosystems and agricultural engineering, since her freshman year. Ley says that Dunford’s mentoring and her work as an undergrad researcher have helped her develop her educational goals.

“Undergraduate research has had a tremendous impact on my education,” said Ley. “It has opened doors to meet other students and professionals in my field.”

Taking advantage of just about every undergrad research opportunity, Ley was a Freshman Research Scholar, a Niblack

Research Scholar, a Wentz Research Scholar, and had an internship with the National Science Foundation’s REU Bioenergy Research program.

She plans to attend graduate school and then work with programs to develop electrification projects in rural and developing countries.

Although the wigs and makeup might seem like a costume for most people, some Oklahoma State students use it to demon-strate who they really are.

At OSU’s 10th an-nual Dragonfly drag show Thursday night, people

came from every nook and cranny to pack the Student Union Theater to witness students compete for best drag queen and drag king. All proceeds from the show supported Freedom Oklahoma, an organization that lobbies on behalf of the state’s LGBT community.

For Cierra Bellum, a psychology major, Drag-onfly was his first time to show the world the image he had been working on since August.

“I’m excited for this to be my first time debuting in all of my own,” Bellum said. “Like makeup I did

myself, hair I did myself. That’s what I’m looking forward to most.”

Bellum placed in the top three of the queens competition after per-forming Beyonce’s “Partition”. Frida...Frida Beast won Dragonfly with a rendition of the Black Eyed Peas’ “My Humps”.

Papa Molly, a drag king and political science major, said she thinks of the event as a platform as well. It’s not only to show-case her personality but to also make a statement about what’s considered masculine and what’s

feminine.“Last semester, I took

a gender studies class and it totally rocked my world,” said Molly, also known as Aeryanna. “... I’ve been preparing by looking at all the mas-culine stars like Justin Bieber and Michael Jackson to see how they perform.”

One of two drag kings at the event, Molly per-formed Bieber’s “Sorry” to a huge applause as she mimicked the Canadian star’s movements. Molly said she thinks that her going out and perform-ing will help what she

thinks is an underrepre-sented group.

“We are a minor-ity within a minority,” Molly said.

Molly placed second to Carter Zane Paige’s depiction of Austin Ma-hone’s “Dirty Work” in the king competition.

In contrast to Bellum and Molly’s inaugu-ral show, it was Ami Rhetto’s third time per-forming at the show. He performed Pink’s “Bad Influence” while wearing a ensemble he said was a “Wonder Woman meets showgirl” costume that he and a friend made themselves, from heels to jewelry.

Ami, also known as Chris, said he cross dresses in public all the time, but at Dragonfly, he goes all out.

“It’s fun to actually get a platform for it, to actually stand up and say, ‘Hey, it’s OK to do this,’” said Ami, a hotel and restaurant administrations major. “It doesn’t make you a transvestite or transgen-der, it just makes you more expressive of who you are.

“That’s the whole mes-sage of coming out and doing this.”
