Make that three Cowboys representing Oklahoma State on Team USA.

OSU commit Jax Forrest won two matches against Vito Arujau on Monday to earn the 61 kg spot at the World Championships.

Forrest won the first match 4-3, then punched his ticket with a 7-2 win in match two — even if it was a month late.

The match was originally scheduled for June 14, but Arujau was able to request an extension due to a nagging injury. Arujau was able to request the delay as a returning world medalist, taking home bronze last year

Forrest joins Wyatt Hendrickson and Zahid Valencia on Team USA which competes in September in Zagreb, Croatia.
