IOWA CITY — Iowa wrestling coach Tom Brands says officials are still trying to determine which fan directed a racial slur toward a Wisconsin wrestler during the Hawkeyes’ final home meet of the season this past weekend. Badger 149-pounder Austin Gomez claims he was the victim of a slur after posting a 3-2 win over Vince Turk.

Brands says Iowa officials reached out to Gomez to discuss the issue.

The second-ranked Hawkeyes will face 12th-ranked Oklahoma State on Saturday night at Globe Life Field in Arlington Texas as part of the “Bout at the Ballpark” event that will also feature the US men’s freestyle wrestling team facing an international lineup. Originally the Iran national team was scheduled to compete but they recently pulled out of the event.
