Cassioppi wins 4-0 to finish out this tournament!

Iowa finished with 157.5 points! 24.5 points ahead of the next team.

Final team score:

Iows 157.5
Little red 132
Suckeyes 112
Pedo State 107

No top 3 finish for the pedos! Iowa stayed healthy, will recieve 9 automatic ncaa bids, and a probable at large bid. Now it is time for a national championship!

I just did some research into Kaleb Young's chances. There are 5 at large bids available. Even though Kalab Young was ill, and not at his best, he came into the weekend with the 4th highest rpi at 157. Even with 2 losses that won't drop him out of the top 13. Every wrestler in the weight class ranked below #7 has 5 or more losses. So I don't see the committee dropping him any lower than that.He'll be in the ncaa tournament, fully healthy, and ready to make a run.

With that Iowa will have 10 qualifiers! It will be very difficult for anyone to catch up to them.

Here's video of the bull's late take down. It was probably the most exciting moment of the tournament.

 

[ClintonIAfan]

Lugo's takedown was pretty good in it's own right. It's so nice to see Iowa with 3 champions, almost 4 but for a questionable rule.
