The 1980-81 wrestling team, the second wrestling team to be inducted into the UCO Athletics Hall of Fame, is undoubtedly the greatest team to ever compete at Central and is arguably the most dominant collegiate wrestling team of all time.

The Bronchos set an NAIA record with six individual national champions that season, a record that still stands today and can hold true across any level of NCAA wrestling. Dennis Kendrick, Todd Osborn, Ronnie James, Alan Maddox, Benny Coleman, and Bill Ameen were all crowned champs as the Bronchos ran away with its second wrestling national championship.
