So proud of these guys !

 

[Rick]

That must've been why he got so many back points.

When did Borshell get back points?

 

[ianoconnor]

WOOO!!! Nice finish!

 

[ajk4st8]

Ditto that. Strong finish and 2 national champs!

 

[norseclone]

I've never teared up watching sports before, but I did there. Couldn't be happier for Zabriskie.

 

[BigJCy]

Team score?

Pretty sure we ended up 3rd

 

[BigDogCyclone]

so happy to see Varner and Z go out with their hands held high! Thanks for great careers you two!

 

[Royalclone]

Half the champs from Iowa's universities.

Two champs from Linn-Mar High

Five champs for the Big 10, Three for the Big 12, and Two for the Ivy League

 

[ianoconnor]

What a way to go out for Big Z and Varner. Proud of those guys.

 

[isuno1fan]

Congrats to Varner (enjoy your Hodge) and Big Z.

Big shout out to Long for a great run. You'll bring it home next year Andrew!

Ness gets the Hodge Trophy. ********.

 

[CycoCyclone]

Ness gets the Hodge Trophy. ********.

Who the **** is Ness?

 

[isuno1fan]

What a F'in screw job to give the Hodge to Ness.

 

[SplitIdentity]

What a F'in screw job to give the Hodge to Ness.

They both deserved it just about as much.

Both are excellent wrestlers.

 

[cyclonesurveyor]

hodge = not varner = screw job.

anyway great job tonight boys! looking forward to year 2 with KJ!

do you think cael stood in the tunnel not to have have isu/iowa fans booing him? p***.

 

[Royalclone]

Ness was getting pins while Varner's opponents were running away.

 

[Istate]

Hodge is a tough one. Varner probably didn't deserve it for the season, but he had to get some sympathy votes for his career. If I had voted, I probably would have given it to Borschel for this year with Ness then Varner close behind.

 

[CyForPresident]

Took this from another board but this all the ranked guys Varner had to beat this year to go undefeated.
#9 Beatty 2x 1 major
#8 Yohn 2x 1 pin
#12 Gelogaev 1x 1 pin
#10 Haynes 2x 2 majors
#4 Simaz 2x 1 Tech
#2 Brester 4x
#14 Wilps 1x Major
#6 Lapotsky 1x
#20 Sorenson 2x 1 major 1 pin
#12 Bond 1x pin
#3 Taylor 1x

Ness had an easier road and lets be honest, Dennis had him beat.
