For anyone who cares (and I imagine nobody does), tOSU commit and son of an IC native and diehard Hawk fan Dylan Koontz won Junior Greco 120, pinning a Fargo AA and Greco Cadet World Team member in the first period. Could meet Teske in the second round of freestyle, which would be interesting.

Thanks, Spic. He may be a Buckeye, but he has Hawkeye blood!

Yes, but I heard he has been spending a lot of time in the tanning beds.

Dylan Koontz came to compete. Won Greco and freestyle, beat Teske 13-7 in freestyle, and pinned Fargo AA and Greco World Team member Eric Barnett in the first period in both styles, including the freestyle finals.

I'm a Hawkeye through and through, but this kid's like family. As kind, humble, and respectful as can be, too. He's an easy kid to root for.

Of course, it wasn't folkstyle, so you take some of the results with a grain of salt. But a win like that over a stud like Teske, not to mention dominating the rest of the field, is impressive no matter how you slice it.

I noticed Joel Shapiro who was at 160 during the season won the 195 class in FS. Impressive, maybe someone to look for at 184.

Is Ayala from Fort Dodge? I knew some Ayalas when I lived there.

I like Sharpio is a smooth operator. His growth through HS is pretty staggering 126 up to 190. I would love for Iowa to land him. I like wrestlers that grow like this but still wrestles like a middle weight

His growth from Feb to May is crazy. He is a stud. He and Warner would look good anchoring our uppers for many years.

 

[Chopper25]

BTW Alex Thomsen is really good. He walked though a pretty tough bracket with ease.

 

[WEH8ST8HAWK]

Thomsen =133?

 

[pumpdog20]

Thomsen =133?

Sure, for Nebraska

 

[DirkTang1]

Thomsen =133?

Nebraska's to lose. Wouldn't surprise me if he ends up at Iowa state though.

 

[edquinn06]

Sure, for Nebraska

Only if he wants to sit behind Jrent for three years.

 

[Omahahawk86]

He's a 25

 

[Chopper25]

Only if he wants to sit behind Jrent for three years.

I don't see him sitting behind JRent if they are at the same weight. I don't think they will be though.

 

[edquinn06]

In a folk style match I give he edge to jrent. But it appears they won't be at the same weight.

JRent is more physical which suits college more. Not saying that Thomsen can't get more physical but if I had to choose between the two, i'd take JRent right now.
