This Sunday, January 31, was supposed to be a BIG one in Iowa City. The top-ranked Iowa wrestling team was scheduled to host two dual meets inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena. One against #10 Illinois and the other against 2nd-ranked Michigan. The dual against the Wolverines has been postponed, part of an unprecedented pause in all sports at the college in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The University of Michigan announced they are entering a "department-wide activity pause... until further notice and up to 14 days," due to multiple cases of the SAR-CoV-2 B.1.1.7 variant within the Michigan Athletic Departmen...

No. 1 Iowa wrestling rips No. 11 Minnesota, 35-4: Carnage Recap Share this story Hawkeyesports.com “[Spencer Lee] is a mean little bastard on the mat. He’s a nice kid, but he’s a mean little bastard on the mat and I love it.” -Tom Brands Our Hawkeyes accepted a late night challenge from our northern rivals and ventured beyond the border to face off against the Golden Gophers of Minnesota.

New week, new venue, new opponent -- same result. Iowa's top-ranked wrestling team took their dominant lineup on the road for the first time this season, visiting #11 Minnesota in Minneapolis, and came away with another thoroughly lopsided victory, 35-4. Iowa won the first nine bouts of the match and was so dominant that Minnesota didn't even record their first takedown of the meet until the eighth match of the night (184 lbs).  "Unbelievable. I have ran out of adjectives." This dual meet looked like a mismatch on paper and it proved to be every bit a mismatch in reality. Iowa's lineup i...

; TuneIn (maybe) ANNOUNCERS: Shane Sparks and Jim Gibbons Iowa opened up their 2021 season with a dominant win over Nebraska and if the transitive property applies to wrestling (it does not), then they should be in store for another easy win tonight. Iowa beat Nebraska 31-6 and Nebraska beat Minnesota 22-14 a few weeks ago. No, the reason Iowa is heavily favored to make it seven straight dual meet wins over Minnesota has less to do with the transitive property and more to do with the fact that they simply have better wrestlers at most weights.  That said, even if the outcome of the dual ...
