The Oregon State Beavers wrestling program was established in 1909, competing in collegiate wrestling across 92 seasons since then. Traditionally a national powerhouse, the Beavers won the Amateur Athletic Union national championship in 1926 (Oregon State's first national championship in any sport) and have won their conference championship 47 times. The team has produced 84 All-Americans, 12 individual national champions, and is associated with five National Wrestling Hall of Fame members. The team has finished a season ranked in the NCAA top 25 on 40 occasions, including finishing 18 seasons in the top 10 and two seasons as national runner-ups. The team's all-time dual meet record is 961-312-28 as of the end of the 2010-11 season which ranks them 3rd all-time for dual meet victories.[1]

Jim Zalesky (Iowa, '84) is the head coach. In his six years at Oregon State, he has coached three All-Americans, won two Pac-12 Championships, and compiled a 70-27-2 record. He is assisted by Troy Steiner (Iowa, '93), Kevin Roberts (Oregon, '96), and Chad Lamer (South Dakota State, '97).
