The Iowa Women’s Wrestling team will compete at the Grandview Open on Saturday, February 3 in Des Moines, Iowa.
54 teams from across the country including the Titan Mercury Wrestling Club and the Elite Accelerator Program (Olympic Training Center) are scheduled to compete.
The competition will take place at the Johnson Wellness Center & Sisam Arena on the Grand View campus.
With the type of teams registered I would have to believe there will be good competition throughout the tournament.
This event was not on the schedule for the Iowa Women’s Wrestling team.
The Grandview Open will be covered live on TrackWrestling.
I will have a follow up blog with results.
The Hawks wrapped up a perfect 16-0 dual meet season with a 39-7 win over the University of Sioux Falls on Wednesday night.
The next competition for Iowa following Saturday will be the NCWWC Regionals at Simpson College (Indianola, Iowa) on Friday, February 23. This will be the qualifier for the National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships (NCWWC) in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on March 8-9.
Iowa is ranked #2 in the country in the most recent NWCA NCAA Women’s Coaches Rankings.
