Remembering Cowboys
The loss of 10 men on Jan. 27, 2001 marks one of the saddest days in Oklahoma State University history. Remembered as "The 10," they were OSU student-athletes, staff, media, and pilots that were killed when one of two team planes crashed while the Cowboys were returning to Stillwater from a basketball game at the University of Colorado.
Saturday, Jan. 27, marks the sixth anniversary of the devastating loss, and is the first time the anniversary falls during a home game for both the OSU men and women. OSU will honor the 10 by opening the Oklahoma State University Basketball Memorial to the public on Jan. 26 and Jan. 27. The memorial, dedicated to the 10 men, is located in the southwest lobby of Gallagher-Iba Arena.
This weekend will also launch efforts for the inaugural "Remember The Ten Run" to be held in Stillwater each year. The event will be a tribute to the men and an annual fundraiser for the OSU Counseling Services.
