The University of Iowa Women’s Wrestling team competed at the Grand View Open in Des Moines on Saturday. There were 56 teams with nineteen Iowa wrestlers competing in the Gold division and four in the Silver division.

Iowa had five champs in the Gold division with Rianne Murphy(101), Ava Bayless(110), Reese Larramendy(145), Naomi Simon(180) and Katja Osteen(207). 

The Grand View Open provided some very good competition for Iowa including several big Hawk vs. Hawk matches.

This was the last competition for Iowa in the regular season so this competition may finalize the lineup heading in the tournament season.

True freshman Naomi Simon continues to tear it up this season by winning the 180 lbs. title by going 4-0 with two pins and two falls.

Another true freshman Valarie Solorio defeated #5 nationally ranked Emilie Gonzalez 8-0 at 110. 

This Iowa team has such a loaded roster that there very well could be All Americans not make the lineup.

#1 ranked Macey Kilty(145), Kennedy Blades(160) and Kylie Weker(180) did not compete. Kilty(65 kg), Blades(68 kg), and Welker(72 kg) are registered to compete at the Zagreb Open in Croatia on February 7-8.
