CLEAR LAKE — Humboldt took all three duals at a wrestling quadrangular in Clear Lake last night, as you heard on AM-1490/96.7-FM KRIB and saw on Lions TV at kribam.com. The Wildcats beat Clarion-Goldfield-Dows 59-18, Roland-Story 54-19, and then beat the Lions 57-15. Clear Lake won their other two duals, beating Roland-Story 40-36 and edging Clarion-Goldfield-Dows 34-33. Clear Lake coach Evan Johnson says his team now prepares for hosting its own Lions Invitational wrestling tournament on Saturday morning.

Jake Trenary had three pins on the night to lead Clear Lake and says his team is preparing for a long stretch of matches in the month of January.

Clarion-Goldfield-Dows beat Roland-Story in the other dual 45-33.

IOWA CITY — The 4th-ranked Iowa women are on the road tonight at Rutgers. The Hawkeyes are 3-0 in the Big Ten and beat the Scarlet Knights 111-57 in Iowa City last season.

That’s Iowa coach Lisa Bluder. Rutgers is 0-3 in the league race but Bluder says their size makes them good on defense.

The Hawkeyes are coming off a win over Michigan State at the buzzer and Bluder says the Spartans are one of several teams in the Big Ten that are much improved.

Tipoff is scheduled for 5 o’clock with the pre-game at 4:45 on AM-1300 KGLO.

 

 

 

IOWA CITY — Two teams in need of a victory collide in Iowa City Saturday when the Iowa men host Rutgers. Iowa is 0-3 in the Big Ten while the Scarlet Knights are 0-2 after a 76-72 loss at Ohio State.

That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery who says Rutgers will provide a physical test.

Iowa is 0-3 in the Big Ten for the second straight year but last season rebounded to finish 11-9.

Tipoff is scheduled for 11 o’clock on Saturday morning with the pre-game at 10 o’clock on AM-1300 KGLO

 

 

 

AMES — The Iowa State men take an 11-2 record into Saturday’s start of the Big 12 race at 11th-ranked Oklahoma. After a 15-17 record last season, the Sooners enter the league race with a record of 12-1.

That’s ISU coach T.J. Otzelberger who says after a number of lopsided wins in non-conference play, the Cyclones are ready for the grind of the Big 12 race.

Sophomore guard Tamin Lipsey says the Sooners will be a difficult test.

Lipsey says it would be a huge road win to get to start the conference.

Tipoff is scheduled for 5 o’clock on Saturday.
