CORALVILLE, Iowa — Twelve University of Iowa wrestlers advanced to the semifinals at the Soldier Salute on Friday evening at Xtream Arena. The Hawkeyes have multiple semifinalists at four different weight classes, including three Hawkeyes at 133 pounds in Brody Teske, Cullan Schriever and unattached freshman Kale Petersen.

Seven Hawkeyes advanced through the quarterfinal round on technical falls. Drake Ayala, Zach Glaizer and Real Woodseach tallied up multiple techs throughout the day, while Patrick Kennedy earned a pin in the morning before ending the night with a technical fall in the quarterfinals. Two unattached freshmen, Petersen and Gabe Arnold, are still alive in the winners’ bracket. Arnold majored Devan Hendricks (Bellarmine), 12-2, to advance.

The Solider Salute concludes on Saturday, beginning with Session III starting at 11:00 a.m. (CT). The action will be streamed live on BTN+.
