CLARION — The North Central Conference tournament is scheduled for tomorrow in Clarion, a tournament that’s a wide open race according to Clear Lake coach Mike Lester.

Lester says the parody of the regular-season duals in the conference shows that every match on the championship and consolation side of the brackets will be important.

The tournament is scheduled to start at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning. You can hear coverage of the North Central Conference wrestling tournament on AM-1490/96.7-FM KRIB, kribam.com and via the KRIB mobile app. We’ll have updates at the top and bottom of every hour starting at 10:35, with live play-by-play coverage of any Lions wrestlers that make it into the finals.

 

 

IOWA CITY — After losing a record number of underclassmen to the NFL Draft, next season suddenly looks like a rebuilding one for an Iowa football team coming off a win in the Outback Bowl. Three juniors and one sophomore are headed to the draft and combined with the graduating seniors it has left the Hawkeyes alarmingly thin at defensive line and tight end.

That’s Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz. Losing four players early in one season is unique, even though the program has had 40 players drafted in the last 11 years.

Ferentz says it is following a national trend.

Ferentz says while they may consider some transfers to fill some holes there is no quick fix and the key will be getting young players already on campus game ready earlier than expected.
