Oklahoma State University in Stillwater will pause Friday evening to "Remember the Ten." 

On January 27, 2001, one of three planes carrying Oklahoma State University staff and basketball players back to Oklahoma crashed in a Colorado field killing all 10 on board.

Bill Teegins -- a radio sportscaster for OSU basketball, News 9 sports anchor and former News On 6 sports anchor -- died in that crash.

The OSU Library tower on the Stillwater campus will ring ten times Friday at 6:37 p.m. to mark the moment the plane went down.
