NCAA WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIPS: “It’s Beautiful, Clark”

Related Topics: Terry Brands

By way of a 4-3 decision in his third 133-pound national final, Cory Clark is finally an NCAA Champion.

That. Was. Awesome.

The senior used a smart first-period escape followed by another in the second and a takedown to defeat Seth Gross Saturday evening. The third period heroics are a strong finish for the lone national champ in Iowa’s senior class.

Clark followed the match with a beautiful throw of Associate Head Coach Terry Brands as his opponent and former Hawkeye waited to shake hands in the middle of the mat. Please watch and enjoy.

Clark’s thoughts.
