Iowa will be competing in the Collegiate Wrestling Duals in Niceville, Florida today and tomorrow. Iowa will face Central Michigan at 6 PM and Lehigh at 8 PM later today. With two wins Iowa will probably face the winner of #6 North Carolina State and #10 Missouri at 5 PM Tuesday. All times are CST.
I made a list of all the potential ranked wrestlers that Iowa will face. Tony Cassioppi at Hwt will have the toughest competition for the Iowa Hawkeyes. Cassioppi will face ranked opponents in all three dual meets. On the opening day #6 Cassioppi will face #9 Matt Stencil of Central Michigan followed by #8 Jordan Wood of Lehigh. On Tuesday Cassioppi will probably face either #28 Owen Trephan of NCST or #16 Zach Elam of Missouri. This will be great competition for Cassioppi. Each match is important for seedings at the NCAA Tournament.
The opening dual meet against Central Michigan will also find #2 Jaydin Eierman facing #7 Dresden Simon at 141. #8 Kaleb Young will face #19 Johnny Lovett at 157.
There will be several really great matchups for Iowa against either North Carolina State or Missouri. Let’s take care of business today and I will have a preview blog for Iowa’s dual meet on Tuesday.
