Mizzou Wrestling can’t overcome slow start, falls to Iowa State

Mizzou Wrestling showed a renewed fight against Iowa State following a three week break, but the Tigers couldn’t overcome a sleepy start against the Cyclones Saturday and fell 21-18 in the regular season finale.

The defeat made it 10 losses for the team this year, the most since the 2000-01 season.
