Iowa advanced to the final four of the College Wrestling National Duals by winning a regional tournament in Ames Sunday. The Hawkeyes beat Virginia Tech 31-3 and Oregon State 22-14 to claim the championship of the regional hosted by Iowa State University. Iowa racked up four major decisions and two technical falls in their two meets, but it was the losses and occasional lapses in intensity that bothered coach Tom Brands. “When you get taken down, you (shouldn’t) put your head on the mat…when a guy picks me up and puts me down on the mat, I come back up. It’s really that simple. That’s what sticks in my head right now,” Brands said. At 141 pounds, Iowa’s Montell Marion – ranked sixth – beat fourth-ranked Michael Mangrum of Oregon State 6-4 in overtime. But, Marion was in no mood to celebrate the Hawkeye’s victories in Ames.
“We haven’t won anything yet,” Marion said. “We want to get this (National Duals) team title. Then, we want to win the Big Ten title and then go to the nationals and win that. We’ve had some hiccups along the way. We’ve lost three duals…but we feel like we’re that number one team. The thing is, we have to go out there and prove it every time we step on the mat.” Iowa State beat Wisconsin, but lost to Oregon State 27-12 in the semi-finals. Cyclones coach Kevin Jackson watched his team lose two matches by pin and one by technical fall. “Obviously, we’re a little disappointed because we thought we had a great chance to make the final,” Jackson said. “We’ve got some young guys who have to understand bonus points are huge in a dual meet. We gave up two falls and a tech fall by freshmen. That just can’t happen.” Northern Iowa finished 5th in the regional, losing to Virginia Tech, but beating Wisconsin. The Panther’s Joe Colon scored a 13-2 win over Virginia Tech’s Devin Carter, who entered the tournament as the number one ranked wrestler at 133 pounds. Colon also pinned his opponent from Wisconsin.
“I feel pretty good…it’s good momentum. Things are going in the right direction and it’s showing. I just need to get better from here, keep working hard like I have been and it’s going to pay off come the national tournament,” Colon said. The sophomore at UNI, a Clear Lake native, is currently ranked 11th at 133. The National Dual Championship Tournament will take place next Sunday at a site to be announced later today (Monday).

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Jordan Clarke scored 18 points, leading five Drake players in double figures, and the Bulldogs ended a three-game losing streak by beating Evansville 78-54 on Sunday night. Clarke also had 12 rebounds for Drake (14-12, 7-8 Missouri Valley), which never trailed. Kurt Alexander had 16 points, Rayvonte Rice scored 13, Jeremy Jeffers scored 12 and Aaron Hawley added 10 points for the Bulldogs.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Samantha Logic scored 11 second-half points to help the University of Iowa women’s basketball team surge past Michigan State, 74-57, on Sunday on Medicom Court inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena. It is Iowa’s fifth consecutive victory. The teams were tied, 30-30, at halftime, but the Hawkeyes turned up the heat during the final 20 minutes by shooting 53.6 percent from the field (15-of-28). Iowa improved to 16-10 overall, 8-5 in the Big Ten Conference; Michigan State dropped to 15-10, 7-5.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Ravens kicker Billy Cundiff says the support of his teammates has helped keep the biggest miss of his career in perspective. The 31-year-old Cundiff returned to his home state of Iowa on Sunday to accept an alumni award from Drake University in Des Moines. His homecoming comes three weeks after he shanked a 32-yard field goal attempt with 11 seconds left in the AFC championship game that sent the New England Patriots to the Super Bowl. Cundiff says his teammates’ support has been impressive and he expected more backlash than he’s gotten. Cundiff also says he learned how to keep the game in perspective while playing high school football in Harlan, Iowa.
