Iowa & HB news - 2025-26

My back-of-the-envelope math puts them 50 points behind PSU next year.

Then they lose Petersen, Ayala, Caliendo, Kennedy and Endene, about 60 points for the following year.
The Hawks will be much closer to 100 points behind than they will be to 50. They had a great tournament this past year and were 96 behind. They don't generally have great tournaments so having back to back great tournaments is probably not likely.

Senior World Team Trials Challenge - May 16-17

It’s the one running “joke” that I never understood people saying it getting shot down: Zahid was clearly 10 pounds heavier every time they wrestled. You could see it.

We found out later that creatine wasn’t the only powdery substance he was using, which helped him I’m sure.
So true. When they wrestled in the dual and Zahid did not have the recovery time after a weigh-in, Mark handled him decisively.

Free vs Folk

Good lord what in freestyle is better than folkstyle? Push outs suck, gator roll points sucks, the officiating sucks, exposure rules suck.
Push outs suck?! It’s so much better watching someone plant their ass on the edge and every attack they just step out of bounds. That’s fun to watch? Folk would be so much better if they adopted that rule. Freestyle has way more action. That’s not debatable. Criteria makes it so someone is always losing which creates tons of action especially at the end of matches. In folk with the score tied and even in OT guys are afraid of making a mistake so no real attacks happen. Lots of guys would rather go to tiebreaks and hope they can parallel ride for 1 sec longer than their opponent. Again, not fun to watch. I love wrestling in general and watch all the folk I can but that product isn’t great. Free is more exciting
