It’s going to be an exciting weekend of wrestling all over Iowa, and by saying that, it’d be easy to look directly at the top-ranked Hawkeyes hosting Ohio State on Friday while Oklahoma State will wrestle both Iowa State and Northern Iowa on Saturday and Sunday. That’s fair.
But don’t forget about the girls’ state wrestling tournament, hosted again by the Iowa Wrestling Coaches and Officials Association. Waverly-Shell Rock is hosting again, and it’s now a two-day deal, running Friday and Saturday.
That the girls’ state tournament has grown into a two-day event is yet another indication that girls’ wrestling is growing at a rate faster than many of us expected this year.
