The Hawks will travel to Wisconsin for a Big Ten dual meet on Sunday, January 22 at 2 PM CST. Wisconsin is ranked #13 in tournament and #18 in dual meet and Iowa is #2 in both. As with all Big Ten duals there will be some very good matchups. As far as rankings go there shouldl be plenty of close matches.
At 125 #1 Spencer lee will face #6 Eric Barnett. Brody Teske or Cullan Schriever will face #28 Taylor LaMont. #2 Real Woods will have #26 Joseph Zargo at 141.
The three best matches of the meet will be at 149, 157, and 165. #7 Max Murin will go up against #2 Austin Gomez at 149. It will #21 Cobe Siebrecht vs. #18 Garrett Model at 157. Model just defeated #3 Kendall Coleman of Purdue 4-3 on Friday. And at 165 #10 Patrick Kennedy will face #6 Dean Hamiti. That is three big matches.
#16 Nelson Brands (174) and #8 Abe Assad (184) will face unranked opponents.
At 197 it will be #8 Jacob Warner vs. #13 Braxton Amos. And at Hwt it will be #3 Tony Cassioppi vs. #11 Trent Hillger.
The Hawks looked real good in a 34-6 win over Nebraska on Friday. Iowa usually wrestles better on Sunday than on Friday when they have two duals in a weekend. This should be a great meet to watch.
