Beauperthuy, Vote Headline All-GPAC Wrestling Honors

Men's Wrestling received several honors on Wednesday from the Great Plains Athletic Conference (GPAC). The 2025 all-conference teams were announced as well as the yearly honors, with Doane picking up a program record 10 selections. Dana Vote was named the GPAC Coach of the Year after guiding the Tigers to the regular season and postseason championships. This marks the third time Vote has received the honor as the Tigers' coach.

Tyson Beauperthuy was named the GPAC Men's Wrestler of the Year. Beauperthuy, the conference champion at 184, is 29-0 on the season.
