Joe Colon is going to 125 and Wolfensberger is going to 133 for UNI after Midlands per Schwab at UNI media days

**Judoka** · 11-07-2012, 01:40 PM

I've also heard that Gambrell might go 174 for Iowa.

**Judoka** · 11-07-2012, 04:06 PM

So the preseason exception from non-fans are five Big XII finalists and two Big XII champs at 125 and 184.

Thanks for bumping it. Cool to see who ended up where. I love that we finished ahead of OU and UNi.

I don't follow wrestling much but it is safe to say this team also exceeded expectations this year. No AA's predicted early in the year, and we had 3 guys finish in the top 8 so hopefully we are back on the upswing and recovered from the earth scorching of losing all those guys to another program
