[sstark46]

Foeller down 2-0 at the break

 

[jrod65]

Need a point here, pretty sure 1st tie breaker is matches won

 

[jrod65]

Yes. No tf, or fall and Iowa wins

 

[sstark46]

Foeller gets a point for passivity! She just needs to not get teched or pinned now

 

[oldhawk56]

Biggest match] point of the tourney?

 

[jrod65]

Boom! Team dual champs!

 

[sstark46]

Jaycee loses 6-1 but Iowa wins the meet 21-20

 

[A Fist Full of Hawkeyes]

What a weird ass way to win, but I'll take it.

Congrats ladies!

Now let's clean some things up and build on it.

 

[ZachJump]

Would rather win it not on the clock...but a win is a win

 

[MilleGinja]

This is only the beginning!

 

[ZachJump]

Outside of Makoyed...North Central is all returning next year

Going to be good for a bit.

They are not as young as Iowa...but still young.

 

[oldhawk56]

This team has a huge upside. It's going to be a monster

 

[texhawkeye]

This is only the beginning!

Lost 6/10 matches, but pull our a huge win. This is incentive for this team; just gonna get better.

Man is NC stacked. Pulling multiple NCAA champs and runner-ups into the line up second semester. They are going to be really tough to beat at NCAA. It’s going to be a barn burner for sure.

Deede for the woman of the match...her 5

Is that why I couldn’t figure out why they had about 3 weights where they had unranked wrestlers: one beating Laramendy, another wrestled Welker pretty tough and a new name at #191 where they already had the #1 ranked wrestler?

Your point still stands, NC isn't going anywhere. But Boyd in her final year as well.

Yes

Welkers match was two of the best in the world

 

[sstark46]

Deede for the woman of the match...her 5

Ice in her veins. That was HUGE.

Frost getting 2 in her match ended up making a big difference too.
Luft scoring a point in her match
Ava coming from behind by 5 to win on criteria


Hell, the entire team wrestled tough top to bottom. This was a true team win. Incredible and f*n to watch

 

[ZachJump]

Ava coming from behind by 5 to win on criteria

Still not sure how she pulled that one out

 

[jrod65]

Life was the NAIA dual champs. Sets up a showdown on the 21st for a defacto multi-division dual champ!

 

[WildTurk]

Congrats to Iowa! Champions!

 

[Grip220]

congrats ladies, Go Hawks

Great to get the win and clear it's not going to be easy. The talent pool for the women is pretty big compared to the programs available so a top end team can be compiled anywhere, power 5 or not. Missing Estrella hurts, Taylor up a weight hurts and there are a couple weights where more talent is needed.
