Well a pretty good meet tonight. Varner is by far the best isu wrestler. Isu will have a great season and me being a Hawk fan wishes them good luck. Hawks found a way to win tonight, now wish I could say the same for our basketball team haha. Go Hawks!
The thing I loved was after Varners match, he was staring at Brands and winked. And then still continued to look him down as he walked off the mat. The difference between Varner and the rest of the team is that he never get flustered and seems to have things under control even if he is losing,
Who won for Coe? I figured Ty Burkle could take M* at 165 but M* was still undefeated. Go NL.Not so much a Dual Tournament, but they host a day of Duals at Carver. They wrestled Coe, Cornell, SIU-Edwardsville and UNC Pembroke. My Kohawks gave them the closest match at 39-3.

This and the nonaggresiveness of the lighter-weights.
Don't mistake bad conditioning for lack of aggressiveness.
We came out at 125 and 133 and started well in the first period. Both times Long and Fanthorpe ran out of gas in the 2nd and in to the 3rd.
Did Varner just motion to the Iowa coaches?
Yeah, not sure why.
Because at least one of the Iowa assistants made that same motion earlier in the night towards the ISU bench.
yeah, it's that breaking a stick thing they do now. I saw the Iowa assistant do it early in the meet but he was doing it to his own wrestler during a match. Probably to get him fired up. I saw Jake do it toward the Iowa bench after his match.
By the way, I actually thought Tom Brands was the voice of reason on the Hawk bench last night. A couple times he was even trying to keep his brother from running out on the mat.
So Varner thought it would be classy to do it at the Iowa bench?
I don't think it was anything too vindictive because noone seemed too upset about it. I think there is a lot of respect between the participants judging from what I've heard first hand from both sides.
