Wrestling vs. Minnesota Tonight

**madcityCY** · 12-08-2006, 10:03 PM

young team... i consider this loss a rebound from the butt kickin we got in iowa city.

**ISUKyro** · 12-08-2006, 10:04 PM

some one please correct me if I wrong, but isn't the wrestling team extremely young as well? With the results they've had already, they'll probably do great in the Tournaments, and wow will they be an unstoppable force by the next year.

**madcityCY** · 12-08-2006, 10:05 PM

i confirm. see above.

ISUKyro, I think we are on the same wavelength tonight...

**ISUKyro** · 12-08-2006, 10:06 PM

LOL wow ain't that the truth!

I know they have four freshmen starting. Cael had the #1 recruiting class in the nation. When Cael Sanderson stops by a kids house for supper, they are going to listen to what he has to say.

Id start a wrestling match in my living room w/ him. At minimum get a quick lesson...

**zdorr40** · 12-08-2006, 10:10 PM

I wonder if you could go 3 minutes w/o getting stuck.

**madcityCY** · 12-08-2006, 10:11 PM

maybe 3 seconds... mom's couch broken in 2.5

**zdorr40** · 12-08-2006, 10:17 PM

And then John Cena would coming running in and save you with a chair shot to Cael.

Sorry, had to do it.

Still good to hear that we went toe to toe with the number 1 team in the NCAA

...is equivalent to one match going the "wrong" way.

Had Turner won, you could speculate the dual would have ended 16-16...assuming that Konrad wouldn't have gotten a technical fall or pin to win it.

Actually, six of the ten starters are freshmen.

Here is the team roster, including biographies, at cyclones.com:
http://www.cyclones.com/SportSelect....48&SPSID=46635

The six starting freshmen are:

Nick Fanthorpe, 125
Nick Gallick, 133
Mitch Mueller, 141
Cyler Sanderson, 149
Jake Varner, 184
Dave Zabriskie, hwt

Last year’s top recruits were:

Mark Kist, 125
T.J. Sebolt, 141
Jonathan Reader, 165

All are redshirting this year. Sebolt has one of the best Iowa high school records ever, and Reader was one of the very top recruits nationally. Sorry if I left anyone out.

If Cael is half the coach he is a recruiter, look out! give those frosh and frosh-to-be a year or two watch us roll.

**isu_bub** · 12-09-2006, 01:45 PM

Cael also gave a scholarship to Mitch Artist out of Glenwood. Guy is solid but might not crack the lineup anytime soon.

Man, if Turner could have pulled that out!
