There were no team scores kept in 1928, 1931, nor in 1933. At least 10 head coached of 37 teams competing in this era originally wrestled at Oklahoma A&M under Ed Gallagher. The EIWA formed in 1905, the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Athletic Association began in 1907 (re-named the Big 5 in 1929), the Western Conference began in 1908 (later known as the Big Nine, then the Big Ten in 1952), and the Southern Conference in 1930.
