Thursday kicked off State’s pursuit of individual and team Championship runs. It couldn’t have started much better. State wrestlers went 8-1, with the one loss…how do you say?…a screw job…
State Wrestler in Bold

197 – #5 Warner (Iowa) defeats #28 Reenan: Reenan had it…Jumped out to a big 7-2 lead heading into the 3rd period. A “stall” call is what was needed to force the match to OT, where Wilson got the takedown and 9-7 win.
