Big eight football tackle by ten Drew James Sweet refereed by Israel of Spring Valley, New York.

In the center of the map.

And our referee here is Spike Israel.

I guess they call him Mike, too.

But Spike is the way I hear it, and he's the little guy on the right and he's out here to take charge of this match.

You can see him firing up before this match to Dave.

He sure was.

He is.

He is happy to be here and he's ready to go.

He wants to be in charge, Matt.

Then all properly marked with the starting lines and what have you.

So I was was well, David, you have any last minute predictions?

No predictions, by golly.

I'm just going to say it's going to be a super meet.

We'll find out at the end what have a good time here.

Dan Glenn is the boy in black from the University of Iowa.

He's had a good record against Iowa State a last year.

He did well against John.

Larry McNerney of Iowa State shoots in for a single leg immediately and then drops off.

They have to step in there.

I think that the referee, Spike Israel, said he's going to make him stay in that center and move.

I think there's no doubt that he's going to stay and he's an official that's well known for the fire, for the fact that he calls Colin pretty quick.

So I think we'll see some solid calls out of that center circle tonight.

Makani is in on the leg again and L.A. brawling against it.

Nice.

Trying to suck it in up into a whizzer position.

Glenn is trying to spin around on him.

You know, I'll tell you something about Larry McNerney in this difficult position here.

He had a tough time making £120 out of bounds.

The boys get an extra £2 in January.

That's right, £118 last.

He's really £120 less than the.

For the first time I saw somebody get down on the scale and wipe it off with a towel to get all the dirt off of its look.

It's not way over £120.

And that's the boy who just shot him for the single leg.

Larry McNerney from Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Glenn is crawling out in what's known as the common sprawl, counter to the double or single leg that, like Israel is saying, are not going anywhere.

With that current, came up limping and right away, Glenn hit him with a leg, countered by a wizard walker that Glenn trying to scoop that back leg and trying to get back behind.

Although Rowe got the with a Whizzer and at the last second out of bounds we might mention here with now 37 seconds remaining in the first two minute period the other periods, of course, of three is that the referee has a microphone, will be able to hear him talk to the boys, another single leg by the good single dad, and he's up behind.

He'll have to take him to the mat for the points.

But there they are, having a good single shot.

He got in deep on it and got around.

The Windsor Hook by McNerney was of no avail, and consequently the viewpoint takedown attorney looked like he wanted to get up and do a Granby roll, and he almost got stuck in it, so he came back.

Boy scrimmage broke up in that first part of that takedown, like, Yo yo, you have 11 seconds left without in the last ten too far back, you see Glenn sliding over so that attorney can't reserve him the first period to knock knuckle record or nothing in favor of Glenn at the end of the first period.

And the Iowa boy, Dan Glenn, is up, both these youngsters had to come quite a ways to make £120 gets it up maneuver although he didn't follow through on it on the part of McNerney but maybe he wants to work from there.

Now he comes back with he's got to look back 30 about it's even off referee's bike.

Israel says it's 2 to 1 one point.

That was a good movie with the shorts it out then came back with a duck under here.

Now we're back where we were in the first period with McNerney trying to get something out of a single that was just a turn through on the part of McNerney to get out of the neutral position.

McNerney started very quickly with a couple of shots and then Glenn got to him twice now a tough wizard by McNerney, and now Glenn is putting pressure on the shoulder rubber arm right now, the workshop that's referred to most often as the Wizard or Overlook on the part of McNerney in that position.

And that's tough many times to a fan, the federal wrestling fan, and look like they have to rather simple position.

But that's a tough double rail you got he's got his head down there a little bit a lot of good pinners like to see that I might point out here Doug, that that Whizzer maneuver on the part of McNerney as well is on the part of Stephenson on the part of Glenn there that's a real good counter to single and double leg.

Now again, Glenn shoots for that left leg and you can see once again McNerney has that elbow arm hooked over there in what's called the wizard position we're just talking about.

Notice how he pins that up against his navel in there or inside of his thigh to lock it in the scars 2 to 1, the Iowa State boy, the Iowa boy, Glenn Leeds.

This is the first batch, £118 in the big Iowa State Fair there.

There's a nice ankle pick by Glenn and he has birdie on his back.

He leaves for a run.

He has it on his back.

You can see the Iowa state, Iowa coaches out on the edge of the mat.

But I don't care who came up.

I don't think there were any back to back for sure.

But yes, he did.

He did get him to.

And now he has McNerney in a half.

NELSON You know what?

McNerney may have had some trouble cutting weight, and I wonder sometimes how much strength it cost him.

Well, if he had a if he had a little difficulty in making weighted of telling his and his conditioning as the match wears on, perhaps, but you never know.

Sometimes those kids are in real cup shape.

You don't notice it as it were on it.

Six Go on right now.

He's got a great ways to go because he's down by a considerable margin, 6 to 1 in the early part of the middle, part of the second period.

And I'll tell you, those extra points were a major decision.

No more eight points, 211 or for a superior decision, more than 12 points difference make a lot of difference to 50 seconds left in the second period.

And Glenn, after a slow start, a first 30 seconds or so has made a very strong showing.

Looks like he's going to want to post that hand off the sit out, but he can't get much done on it because Glenn stayed in a real tight and he's sliding over every time that Larry wants to get the Whizzer back now.

And I should out turn he's out with a straight 6 to 2 with 28 seconds left.

Glenn blocked very nicely.

McNerney shot first match £180.

Single leg by the gurney.

We have to call it in.

But he doesn't have much time to do it.

He has 10 seconds, if you can see the clock ticking away.

And Glenn is just reaching over the top.

It's kind of a stalemated position right there.

Yeah, this is this period will end this race, £118 match at the end of two periods.

Dan Glenn of Iowa, six, Larry McCartney of Ohio.

Here we go With that set up and turn out.

Most people will turn in on that.

But that was a good turnout.

And they countered that that defensive counter on the part of Glenn very well by going to the outside and posting at far risk like Ernie starts on top but there was nothing else in the referee's back telling him, watch the ball now.

So Ernie, trying to stay in a World Cup with the leg situation, he's got a partial.

He really doesn't have the force.

He really doesn't have anything with it.

Now, though, just a kind of an overhand it looks like he might be going to lose there, but it's a little high and he lost it.

It's now 8 to 2, a two point reversal for Dan Blatt.

And he will try as hard as he can to put McNerney on his back.

Now, we've got an 8 to 2 score, so you see, he's pretty well in command and he's got probably the the in excess of the one minute trading time, which would give him a92 advantage.

He has a minute and 55 and counting and Glenn McNerney has 23 seconds of riding time.

So it's a potential point.

He has to pick up another one somewhere to get another point.

A four point team score like Ernie is bound to try to get that setup combination working for him.

He takes that risk and there's a number of things you can do off of that.

But Glenn's countering pretty well, although one here comes from a gurney out there.

They are an escape and escape.

The score is 8 to 3, five point difference, 2.4 riding time.

And the gurney at 118 is the first time he's been at 118 this year.

He's been wrestling 26.

He has the arm around the waist this time.

And Glenn, has the Whizzer still in neutral position, though?

No point scored, no advantage to the boy.

The hook in the Wizard, of course, was a good counter move from there.

Attorney is in pretty good position in the legs, but Glenn goes into a roll and the gurney is trying to come out on top.

He does.

Now it's 8 to 5 with a minute and 15 seconds left and the gurney feels he still has a chance to win.

He has a cross base.

You want to use that cross place to maybe get him tipped for some ballpoint.

That's what he intended that for.

He's riding up on the leg now for the cross body ride, and the referee's bike is real.

Telling him to work from there, not to sit up there.

Now he's he could very well get a warning.

It's now still made the helmet yesterday, as you probably know, if you're a wrestling fan, the Cross-Body ride is an excellent way to stall if you're so disposed.

Here's where here's where McNerney comes out the back door, so to speak, off of that maneuve That was a real tough scrimmage for the takedown on the part of both boys on that that pass to corner 8 to 5.

We have 55 seconds left and a lot of riding time for Glenn.

He has the point.

They're locked up so you'll notice that McNerney here is riding real high.

But that's a tendency of a lot of wrestler today work on the upper part of the body.

And that's what he's attempting to do.

He's got to have some ball points at this point of the match and that's what he wants to get.

I working real hard of that.

Nelson up on top and as long as he keeps the legs, he's all right on the referee's bike.

Israel is putting him down.

It doesn't look like a near fall situation.

Turning is giving everything every chance he can see him shake his head and inside shoulders up quite a ways as 28 seconds.

Right now, we're down 18 seconds.

That gurney is trying to get Paul blocks, trying to get on the pace, looking beseeching.

Let's take Israel.

And Arthur Glenn was hanging on to his own ankle there, of course, keeping a good counter to that.

And there it's going to end.

No, he can't do anything.

It's over.

And the Iowa Hawkeyes win the opener with Ben Glenn.

That was an 8 to 5 decision.

I don't think there was any riding time around.

Now, as it turned out, Akani stayed on top and held it out.

A lot of booing going on in Iowa State's Hilton Coliseum, although I really don't know why.

I think they thought they should have had some more points, but it was obviously one of any coming.

Oh 126.

I'm looking forward to this one day party.

Mr. Miliband, Mike Land, undefeated of Iowa State, but a super freshman for Iowa.

Randy Lewis from Rapid City, South Dakota, who was a tremendous Pinner in high school.

And he's a tremendous prospect, I'll say.

In fact, he had 83 pins out of his 93 bouts while in high school.

That gives you a little idea.

And he's very, very dangerous.

Iowa State recruited him hard to everybody did who wanted a good wrestler.

And he has a record of 14 and three.

You can see land going in high on that kind of a single farm.

Now he goes in and he has it with a he gets the point.

It was a good move on the part of land.

He went in real deep on that single.

What kind of a follow on par with it?

Mike Land has had a very good year in his first two years.

He had a little trouble with occasionally a slump in mid season, but he hasn't had it in 1977 78.

That's very true, Doug.

I think sometimes that comes about with the longevity of the season.

It gets pretty long enough and a young man maybe will hit his peak sooner than others.

And consequently it's my understanding he didn't start quite sorry this year and maybe that will be to his advantage.

I'm sure he's hoping so, but he's in there with a tremendously dangerous wrestler, Lewis of Iowa and Mike Land of Iowa State on top 1826.

And nothing is Mike Land's record, 26 and zero.

And there he is.

He has to have a hammerlock on Bard back there.

He's keeping a lot of pressure on that, too.

Yes, he is.

He's a very stable wrestler.

I think the thing to keep in mind here is with the with the pinning capability of this Lewis boy, that land is going to have to maintain control through the entire match.

And I mean, Matt, control down on the mat, keeping a lot of pressure bearing down, broken down so that the young man cannot afford to come back and do a booking for a this week and see the time ticking away there.

Land keeping pressure on.

He had an ankle block at one time but leg up the back Lewis can't find that Missouri he wanted that Lance going to have to move up here yes I think he's got to the period all with all the points scored against him.

It's two to nothing.

Doug.

It's rather interesting.

This young Randy Lewis, who in his sophomore year in high school, the 90 pounder, he all 29 matches he had by pins.

Isn't that amazing?

Hey, girls, YouTube.

Well, people see people as one of the pompom girls at Iowa State wrestling cheerleaders, I think.

Well, I'll tell you, everybody's here.

The Iowa State football team, this is this is a big recruiting weekend.

They bring in people from all around the country and they like to send these youngsters in here to see a big meet with 14,000 people and show them what Iowa State is like.

Now.

Lewis Starting on top land, fighting out on their hands in a stand up position.

And he's out immediately caught at quick in 15 seconds but Lewis is right back the score three to nothing Lewis comes into the single leg and lamb sprawls out of it.

He's doing a good job of sprawling, although Lewis looks pretty determined and there's that little look for a pancake that land likes.

And then he goes for a high crotch and gets it, trying to suck it in.

You have to bring it down and come around.

It may be a stalemated situation here as the Lewis boy appears to be fairly strong.

Also, LAMB so far has given Lewis a lot to think about and and generally in fairly stable situation.

He's the kind of youngster you don't want him to get into trouble.

WATERS He likes to fish in trouble later.

Good move on the part of lamb who feed him.

They're tough.

He got that leg hook back behind.

He used the trip him out the back door, 4 to 5.

The nothing is land gets the takedown there.

Notice again that both teams rely heavily on this weather over over hook shot.

That's such a tremendous leg good counter for a number of offensive moves on the bottom.

Now, these two youngsters have met once this year already.

They met in the Midlands.

And I frankly was surprised as a new Lewis was quite good at LAMB, who won the title in there, beat him 8 to 1.

That's good right there.

Here comes Xscape on the part of land.

See, he came out the back, back to live action again.

Lewis stands up, turns in and land has to hold onto that leg in some situations like this, a good wrestler will try to turn that into a pinning hold from a defensive position down there.

Boys, do it again.

Stalemated situation and it was a good call.

A minute 35 left in the second period.

Land has more than a minute and 45 seconds time advantage.

There is Randy Lewis trying to figure some way to get five points back in a hurry.

Land rolled him up.

Lamb's doing just about what I think he has to do for this match, and that is, as I indicated earlier, he's keeping a lot of pressure down.

They're keeping him broken down off of his base, off his knees, off his hands.

So they can't put anything together for a pinning combination.

As we indicated earlier, the Lewis boy is a real Pinner, even though he's a freshman.

But when you're down off your base, there's not much you can do.

Land has that arm block back there, turn it into a chicken wing.

Now he's looking for maybe a half nelson to go with it.

He's got a double armbar now.

He doesn't quite have the other arm now.

Lewis has got it, got the one out, but he still is in a chicken ring position.

And Lewis is having a real struggle here.

The LAMB just doing an excellent job of riding back there on top, using the combination of ARM series and the chicken wing, which he has on his near side.

Now 50 seconds left by the way, David, five to I think land leading island won the first £218 match.

Dan Glenn over the journey 8 to 5 and this is the second error is Mike LAMB when he lands flipping a half Nelson on that far side every once in a while but there's not much he can do on the far side with a half.

Nelson over here plus he gets on over to the other side.

He's using that as an offensive gimmick and he puts the leg in or tries to.

He lost his man.

The score is 5 to 1.

This match is far from over.

It was a good maneuver on the part of Will Lewis.

13 seconds left.

Now we're counting down ten nine in the second period.

You can watch the clock by the end of the second period.

Here's the tape on the part of Lewis right here.

It was a case where LAMB was riding a little bit high and as a result, just a little duck out by Lewis caused and gave him the one point escape.

You're looking at the Iowa bench and the man looking up here in mustaches, Jay Robinson, who an assistant coach, Dan Gable, is about two people down and he's behind one of his wrestlers.

You can't see it, man.

Land is the top man you're looking at.

Randy Lewis.

Five, two, one.

Land leaves.

Lewis has to get out.

It was an awful quick maneuver on the part of Lewis there on that stand up is keeping a whip grip over.

But he didn't let it turn to a wizard.

Now this one looks a little bit better now.

A would like to turn that into maybe an over and under, get the other leg across.

But it looks to me as if Lewis has a pretty good position.

Now he's out.

He's going in the neutral position.

One point escape 5 to 2, but land goes right back to the leg again and is trying to bring it up.

It would appear to me, Doug, that they're somewhat near the turn of the mat and lands are going to score that too right there because you've got a hook.

There it is.

He is looking then he's going to stroll back through the middle, taking the forearm and the bar on an ankle.

And he got the two bar, a fine, workmanlike takedown there by an unbeaten wrestler like Land of West Ham on.

He has lost another point.

Now let's get the score up today, 7 to 3 as Lewis comes out now head and arm control and land has Lewis on his back.

Glenn has Lewis on his back.

He's still on his Final four.

There are two points for a takedown and he has land landed Lewis in a near fall situation that he can handle in here.

But he's going to get points out of it.

He's got a two pointer, I'm sure, 9 to 3 as it stands with a minute and 40 left.

That was tomorrow.

The referee gives him a two for a near fall.

It's now 11 to 3.

And that would be a major decision if it held.

And he also has a lot of riding time.

I'll say that he's looking tough tonight.

He sure is.

We have a minute.

25 left in the match, but Lewis is still a toughie.

Yes, he is.

And he just can't afford to give him any real breathing room.

If he does get tough before he's a real pinner and Landis.

Landis using that front Nelson beautifully.

I've got a front quarter Nelson with the with a chin lock in there it looks like he let him out now it's 11 to 4 I'm not sure.

And he figures he can take him down every time because he doesn't wanna lose that eight points with the riding time.

It's 11 for now.

He's got a single leg.

He takes Lewis up in the air, turns on him.

Lewis is holding on across the middle to keep him losing points, holding on if land can come around here, there's every chance of he's getting another takedown.

He's out near the edge.

If he hangs in there pretty tough, he's got 40 seconds.

He'll get his two point takedown.

Looks like he's going to go up the ladder in there.

Look at there.

That was there again.

Just got out of it.

30 seconds left.

Now, if he goes out front, Porter Nelson, and he's got the kind of a head chancery on the far side and he's really bearing down on it.

He's got Lewis in trouble right now.

He's going to have the two point NEAR-FALL without any doubt.

Now the question is up in there is not only who's going to win, but how by how much?

11 or more.

And land has a chance for a superior decision.

And he's in excellent position now because he's just sucked in a leg.

He's got to get that two pointer.

You've got 20 seconds left to get it in 20 seconds.

Oh, loser.

We've got to.

He's going to have to hold on now.

14, 13, if here's the story.

If Lewis gets some points, that's a good call.

That's a stalemate situation because the match would have ended that way had the referee let it continue and should have been stalemated.

You could call 8 seconds left now.

There are two young men out there now who could tell you how hard it is.

Harold Nickles watch on how tough it is to wrestle.

8 minutes, pull out against a career competition once.

And it's a major decision for Mike Land, the World Cup for 12 to 4.

And so Iowa State takes the lead after two matches, 4 to 3.

And as you know, college wrestling, high school wrestling just goes right on.

And at £134, here comes Spike as we head over to the Iowa State Bend or something.

I didn't set the uniform of supposed to be uniform.

Everybody's going to have the same kind of uniform.

Some guys got long when some guys got short ones.

Oh, yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

They're all supposed to have the same kind of uniform.

Well, there's a thing here in the rulebook.

Tell you.

Tell us about.

Yes, that's correct.

The uniforms need to either be the short, such as you see out here right now or the long over tights.

It makes no difference.

But whatever it is, all team members must comply the same.

And I think they have one or two members that have the long over tights on the one that have the short.

Yeah, that is in violation.

It's not a serious crime, but I think the official indicated here that probably is something he should have checked ahead of time.

But yes, well, here we are at £134.

Mark Warner of Iowa State, 11 and three, a sophomore for Urbandale against Steve Hunt, a senior from Iowa, nine and three.

You remember Steve Hunt from last year.

He had a terribly unlucky year.

He went undefeated all season and got beaten in his first match in the Nationals.

The man who beat him, Sloan of Lehigh, then got hurt, got beat and out of the whole tournament without a point, went Steve Hunt.

That's right.

And of course, was the tab to win that national tournament last year.

But that happens every year, you know, in that in that tough national the very tough meet such as the Midland, you're always going to you're always going to have one, two or three upsets.

And that was one of the big ones last year.

Now, these boys are both rangy for 134.

They're both tall, slender kids.

Warner has been hurt, but I know Harold Nichols is very high on it and he's tough.

And of course, he comes out of Urbandale.

He's had a lot of wrestling background experience, even though he is only a sophomore.

But he'll give the hump a good test, I'm sure, on his hip on a single.

And you can see people with this kind of leverage you see there, the advantage of height is in wrestling, you can score and get a lot of leverage out of it.

That's after about a half shot on the part of Warner.

But he wasn't in deep enough to make it worth any takedown point here in the last 30 seconds of the third match, Mark Warner against Hunt senior against the sophomore.

And there's another case where there's a lot riding on how a young man does in his first real year as a wrestler for a major school.

That's right.

I mean, he never been a varsity competitor before.

And of course, wouldn't you know it, early in the season this year, he gets thrown out at the big one.

And but there again, that's what develops good wrestlers.

You know looks like we're going to have a scoreless first period of course.

Right.

Or something.

Unusually spectacle occurs here in the last 5 seconds there in the middle at the end of the first period between Mark Warner of Iowa State, Steve Hoppe, there's the score four for Iowa State and three for Iowa.

Those little points every once in a while make a lot of difference.

So, boy, Mike LAMB got one for our state's top scorer.

A major decision along the way just may make the difference in the total team score.

You heard Spike Israel they imported referee from York teachers I understand in Tenafly, New Jersey.

Okay top man get set and hold it.

There he is telling the boys to get ready to get to in the middle.

Now there is hot in his special hole.

He likes to get an ankle and then right in either a crossface over the shoulder somewhere he has a crossface the forearm, right with the far and he's got a lot of leverage back on that back hip.

You know how he has notice how he has that locked in up there deep or I should say high on the thigh.

And of course, that creates a lot of pressure to keeps He does in this case.

And the bottom man, water has very little chance of regaining his base or putting it putting any move together at all because of the way that leg dropped in a lot of control on it.

Yes, I'm certain his every time you can control the hips of the bottom wrestler, you've got him in trouble.

And so far as control is concerned, Warner's having trouble seeing, too.

I like is his ear.

Guards have come down over his eyes.

I don't think Steve Horn can take advantage of the situation because he can't see it, the referee stopping it for that purpose.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You got that once you that okay.

There's our, our, our haberdashery expert there.

Well that facemask or headgear was slipping down over the eyes.

And of course that that is why he stopped it in that position.

There was no significant move going on.

So it was good time to stop it and get it straightened out.

No score at this point.

208 left.

So we've had a relatively inactive match so far.

I would say.

Well, hunch is pretty tough on top.

He's right in that ankle.

You know, any time you get a man who pixels, ankles, far near ankles in the back, he's got pretty good control.

It takes away any offensive move that bottom end he has to stay up and working hard on the top to it using it as a pinhole because referees call it quick.

Now, if you stay down on the legs too long, he just Arrow gave him a verbal warning, so to speak, as to move up off those ankles.

It's a nice way to stay on top is right the cross-body right defensive stunning work by one point.

1.0.

That doesn't surprise me because I knew that he would call that falling fast, but he'd already given them the warning.

Yes, that's one against the Iowa State for for stalling.

It's not one to nothing these days.

You get a warning at the end of the first period.

That's why that's automatically a point.

It's an automatic warning to one of the wrestlers at the end of the first period if there is no score.

And he gave the warning to the Iowa State board and the second time he said something, it's our word.

Okay, top man, get your hand inside.

Get in there.

Get it, get it in there.

Inside.

Get it in, then.

That's a caution.

Top man in top man.

Illegal start.

Get the inside.

It's on the belly button.

He's having it hanging out.

Get it inside.

This is something obviously, that Steve Hunt doesn't want to do.

Well, the referee is absolutely right in that case.

So he shouldn't have to tell anybody that two or three times very obvious what should take place called referees know where that hand-blown is.

So that's a caution.

Next time, of course, you see that goes down as a penalty point because he's already had one penalty.

But all right, it's 56 five, 4 seconds left in the second period.

Pass the rear cross with his left hand at the bar arm.

But Crossface below dug.

He's trying to go into the what's known as the cross face cradle by driving that far leg poking that far leg up to where he can lock and then bring it back into the cradle move.

But it was unsuccessful.

They move the pick Gallia of Iowa State used to use a few years ago and very similar to everybody knew what was coming and they couldn't do anything about it.

25 seconds won by nothing.

Hunt leaves now another top man breaking break.

He's you that falling off top.

So Spike is pointing.

And needless to say, that is that with approval by most of the 14,000 people here, it definitely would because they want to see offensive wrestling.

They don't want to just see control wrestling out there.

And that's basically what what is transpiring on top is the legs inside and the heat are taking the pin position, if they could have gotten it.

But it was basically a stalling maneuver.

22 seconds hot on top.

Well, they've had enough warnings and preliminary points here.

They know they have to work.

Now, there's what Hunt would like to do, really, really drive on and try to get it over with that far 7 seconds.

We're in the second period.

Notice the way he's controlling that fight, that hip, those hips.

I there at the end of the second period and with all the discussion and all the deliberation about who should have his hand, where and who is working and who is, we have a score of one to nothing goes Dan Gable of Iowa.

I think at this point, before we get into this, the girl.

Nichols, you're ready.

Okay, get set.

Hold it.

Okay, Top man, you were saying?

But I was just saying, at this point, you'll know that all the way through this match so far, that Hunt has been very successful in keeping control over the young Wonderboy.

But you've been doing it by controlling his hips entirely, and that's been very successful for him.

We understand, by the way, to that if Warner has a weaker position to be in love on his feet or riding or underneath, it is right where he is now.

He's not a really good rider.

And we'll see what happens here.

Now, Hunt's coming into a sit out position where he could get a combination of moves put together.

They'll probably come up or he's in a neutral now, so it's of nothing with 222 left and Hunt's has 3 minutes of riding.

Time Warner has 226 to choose untried, a wrestler's best friend, sometimes in a tough match, but a little breathing time, I guess they say that's true, but I don't think they're going to get by with much of that type thing with the official out here tonight, T.J., the Iowa State mascot down there with the wrestling cheerleaders.

We're in the third match at Iowa State's Helton Coliseum.

The teams have split the first two and decisions, but Iowa State's win by Mike Land, the 26, was a major by parts and the score as a teams 423, two to nothing.

Here with Steve Hunt of Iowa who is the favorite definitely leading Mark Warner but two to nothing is not a win not yet And right now on their feet, there's really not that much going on.

They're both doing a lot of counter wrestling right now.

They're making about what I would consider maybe a half shot on their takedown attempts.

They're not falling all the way through.

They're not getting in there deep on what I call deep penetration.

But perhaps we'll see that shortly out of hand.

Fighting is a good countermove on an underneath and an underneath counter on the part of the runner.

I mean, at 24 left, it would be a match.

It wouldn't surprise me that we'd see a stolen call here shortly if we don't get it more economically.

Yes.

Warner hasn't made a real move yet here in a while.

We haven't heard anything out of his real life yet on a shot by Hart.

You notice in each of those cases, they're not.

They're going way off of their base.

I call the center of gravity of their knees, and consequently they don't get much on that takedown maneuver.

They've got to get in deep with deep penetration.

They're going to hurt.

Now, I think we're going to play we're going to get Scarlet on play.

That's what we expected.

Who did that had to come or hadn't made a shot at?

It's now three to nothing.

High water goes in on the leg.

Three is a lot different than two and two point Hey Warner he has right in time to make up to, you know, the three two match.

We're in the last half minute of this eight minute wrestling match at £134.

Hunt of Iowa leads 3 to 2 with riding time.

I have Iowa was expected to win it, but this will be decided by the surprises you would expect.

You've got about 15 seconds, maybe 14 left.

Now.

Here it is on the countdown.

There's ten.

He's got to have some more points and he's got to going to get them staying back here, riding one watch Audi out in front will have a bad day, maybe in.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

There it is.

Iowa wins another one with riding time.

Steve Hunt is the victor at £134 for 2 to 1 and the score is Iowa six Iowa State four going into the £142 match and they've upcoming is a swing match.

Now, without any doubt, this will be a tough one.

I don't wouldn't know how to pick this with Randy Nielsen of Algona.

And as you know, Southpaw from Iowa also got here last year.

Nielsen beat Fresno handily, at least once.

I can't remember if they wrestled more than that.

I think probably they did.

But Trevino has had a tremendous year.

He's one of these young fellows at Iowa home field, kind of an arm in arm hit shuck into the two point takedown maneuver on the part of Trevino and, you know, got his two very quickly throw it in Fresno has had a tremendous year and he's expected to get Randy Nielsen everything you ask should he's still got that win 100 to the one for Zeno of Iowa leading with a minute 15 left in the first period, two minute period, Scott Trevino, 15 and two Nielsen is 15 and six.

Fresno finished second in the Midlands, the toughest mid-winter tournament in the country.

I've always regarded Nielsen, having seen him for a long time as a real mat wrestler.

By that I mean down on the mat.

He's tough.

He's many times come from behind stalemate whatever that that's that's.

Broughton Don't do that.

But he's talking to he's talking to Randy Nielsen Spike as well after Zeno fought off a high crotch try by Randy Nielsen.

He's quick now.

He's trying to run right kind of a head snap, spin around maneuvers many times.

Just call a snap down counter to do a leg dive.

Now, Scott was you know, you can tell by the way he carries himself sometimes you can just see he's a different wrestler from last year.

30 seconds left.

First period for Zeno leads 2 to 1.

Mr.. As you know, I can see already he's got he's quick he gets good position but Nielsen is very strong and he's he's territorial.

He's got good leverage.

He'll stay in it all the way and he'll give you all he's got for 8 minutes last 14 seconds.

They're near the edge of the match as Matt as he almost slipped and a little five foot and four zero world on him at the last second.

If you want to call that downtown.

Well, I'll tell you that Randy little bit with the sweep there at the end of the period I'm sure he didn't see the clock, but casino is very fast.

Cadogan is to score and that was a really serious two point takedown.

And his head was down and he took advantage and spun around behind him, commonly referred to as a snap down counter, moved around with a two point lead for the takedown.

Fresno went into a roll right off the whistle, and Nielsen, who is a tremendous rider, couldn't hold it.

It's now 5 to 1 oh.

Nielsen went in for the other leg and it was, you know, whipped him right out of bounds.

This is going to be up.

Here comes cable right now real quick.

Just nothing more than ran right out of there, split the hands and moved out and is neutral and stand up is a very common escape and is tough in the collegiate level because those guys are good, strong Gallen.

I warning against Trevino for backing out now before the match, referee told both these teams in their dressing rooms that he was going to call him for that, for backing out of that ten foot circle.

We have to keep in mind now, there has been one warning for stalling here, and that's been on the behalf of Trevino.

So we'll see what transpires.

The remainder of the match, 5 to 1.

Trevino is started out with a flurry and he leads Randy Nielsen.

And he must have it must be a little bit tough on Nielsen, who is now again in trouble.

And it's tough to get lost.

Two more boys with a little duck under slip around from behind and takes him to the mat.

He's quick, gets good position and it must have cost Randy a little bit of hardship to thinking that his best position was lost immediately when he got up on the ride of the competition.

aa7 to two look at the combination of Dino turning him loose on him and Nielsen turning in for the one point escape 7 to 2, no riding time for advantage for either wrestler yet with a minute 45 left.

Yeah crossing Oh again with that quick tries to whip around the snap down and Nielsen has a leg this time trying to bring it up He has a double and comes around that single into a single double effort and snap his head came round from behind for the two point take that parlayed trip and he got it down a minute and 20 It's now 7 to 4.

Nielsen is trying to work all points if he can if he's aggressive and offensive.

He got plenty of time to come back, but he can't lose any more points.

He's up.

He uses that tight waist in the arm crunch.

If he can drive, drive, he has a firearm.

And you can see Trevino edging for the out of bounds spike Israel has now given up on for stalling to Randy Nielsen.

He took a point away from Fresno riders we've got eight No, no, no.

I blow the whistle.

You're down 54 seconds left in the second period.

This is a match again?

Yes.

I didn't have any doubt.

But what this would turn into one regardless of that score in that first period, because Nielsen is a real battler, he never quits.

He'll stay in there tough all the way to zero.

The National Wrestling.

Okay.

Seven, five Latino trying to stand up.

He's doing very well.

He's out again.

He gained his base beat UCF.

It's about an ankle pick and now he has Nielsen up high and he took it early and a double leg pick to put him right down for two more.

And it's now 10 to 5 with a point for the escape making eight and the takedown.

Nielsen with 25 seconds left in the second period as five points to make up to come in.

There was a kind of a switch maneuver, but it's unsuccessful.

Cardenal and Carpenter Mr. Zino is surprisingly good.

He's fast.

He gets good position and he has, as we said two times out of three, kept Nielsen away from where Nielsen wants to be on top and chugging.

That's right.

Nielsen's favorite position is in the top position down on the mat to go pick.

There comes our takedown position.

Notice that how he picks that leg and takes around the waist puts him down for the two pointer.

Actually, it's kind of a combination.

Single double.

Yeah almost like a Kelly.

But using the leg instead of the arm.

There you go.

And the second period, the score with a match going into the last period, Iowa's Scott Fresno a sophomore ten and Iowa State's Randy Nielsen, a senior five and Iowa leads in the meet 6 to 4.

He's back and he's got to move up on him pretty quick because he won't let him sit back there.

I suspect we'll talk to him already and get up off it.

Nelson's got to get moving right here.

I haven't seen one of his good rolls yet.

Now it is relative.

Came out of three.

Well, you call that one day?

Well, he likes that role pretty well, either inside or forward.

He worked.

He worked off of a forward roll there, which usually goes for a one pointer and turned it into two out of out of seven again.

And the and the crowd is yelling so loud here.

I can't see stalling on top this time.

And that's.

No, no, no stalling on that's a ploy to pull for him coming out the back door in between the legs.

32 pointer right there.

Good.

Most often it's a one pointer, but he made it two.

Sorry I got in your way there, Dave on that slow low.

But he gave the point to Nielsen.

It's now 10 to 8.

The riding time is about even because he was out 11 to 8 up and turned it on him for the one pointer 2 minutes left by the pancake Nielsen.

Now he's whipping around he's hoping to pass quick he gets good position Nielsen's head was down he just used the whole spin around snap down counter maneuver it for the two pointer.

They're going to roll it.

They're scoring points faster than we can count them.

Now we have a minute, 46 left and it's 13 to 10 back to the middle burger.

Here comes the maneuver right here.

There's your leg kept coming.

Elevator series, roll combination.

It comes in for the two points.

Good move on the part of Nielsen.

They're setting up with a minute 44 left in the match.

Now, strike is where they're going to send Pacino over to his bench for something like that.

We got a timeout at this point with a score 1310.

I don't know if you're 20 writing time or not is the call at this point.

Trevino has a minute 44 and time up and it's minute 23.

For Nielsen, the score is 13 to 10.

Of course, the coach and of course the other guy get the point.

He's got to get out.

As you noticed, there's not supposed to be any.

And they tell him what to do.

That's escape plan.

Well, I see.

Oh, that's that's the takedown itself in the slow mo that we're going back to live action.

The Nielsen off the whistle he's on top is leading he's trailing by now by four points 14 to 10.

This Pacino's real tough.

He comes to his feet real tough and comes out pretty easily for the one pointer.

Nielsen can't hold him down.

And that's all right Give me fireman's carry which failed four zero blocked it and he's going to get another two here unless he'll get that far ankle pick and he's going to get the two off of this.

It he gave it.

Yeah.

16 to 10.

And I'll tell you Nielsen is going to have to go to keep from turning up the loser in a major decision a minute and five but it looks to me like maybe there's a neutral position there now but maybe now he still has an awful lot of pressure on it, although the knee that he right now Nielsen is out to a neutral position and he's trying to pin Nielsen.

If he can't for you if he can in a wild position, it almost ended up on his back himself.

He took a shot, a gamble on that film.

At this point, he should be doing that.

He's got 42 seconds left in the match.

He's down 1611.

You've got to get some quick points.

And the only way to going to hit it game four points and Gable up exhorting oh, he was a nosebleed, I believe.

Ready?

Right cut.

I can't really get a good look at it but I do see blood.

It's a no I think it probably those but that doesn't cut down his injury time.

You see each competitor is a permitted three minute total injury time in the entire match and the common nosebleed has not considered as injury time.

And so far as that 3 minutes is concerned, well, with a team score here, 6 to 4 and you see Harold Nichols intense as ever.

There's a difference in styles two.

When Dan Gable was a wrestler, he was not a jumper and a shouter, but he's turned out energy in that way as a coach.

35 seconds left, 16 for Pacino, 11 for Nielsen over Nielsen for a double.

He lost it against Underhook.

So Pacino now, like to go for the ankle pick again.

Nielsen has been has been vulnerable there he can't match Nielsen try to counter him with that leg and he got to a takedown 13 seconds left, a 16 to 13.

Nielsen is going to have to throw something really clever here.

Carr is not going to get much together down there now and Nielsen there getting popcorn and that's where it ends with Scott Trevino, the youngster from Iowa defeating Randy Nielson of Iowa State last year.

It went the other way and now the Hawkeyes have put two together in a row and they have won three of the first four matches against Iowa State.

The score was 16 to 13 and a wild and wooly one zero.

The score is nine two, three, £150.

No, A very fine junior from Iowa, Bruce Kim, up against Joe Sussman from Fort Dodge for Iowa State last year, a runner up in the Nationals.

Yeah, we might mention that Bruce Kent, this is from Decorah.

I guess we'll get to Iowa, boys going at each other here, not only representing each of the two universities, but respective communities.

The car in Fort Dodge, if you can't really see it in that shot.

But there's quite a difference in height.

Kenseth is considerably taller than the suspect, no doubt about Joseph Span is short, but you notice he's very muscular not only in the upper part, but in the lower part of the body, in the lower body, good thigh muscles, calf muscles.

He's strong.

Yes.

He likes to likes to shoot single legs as much as.

And now you've indicated that this fan, of course, was runner up in the Nationals last year.

So he's had he's got an excellent background.

He's been tough all the way.

Both of these boys were former state high school champions.

But it seems to me that in Iowa State, Iowa Duals, there have been some big swing matches right in the middle riding through here, 140 to 150.

There's the team scoring 9 to 4, Iowa leading Iowa State and almost always an upset here, 50 or 58, maybe a draw that nobody expected or somebody upset.

Well, I hadn't had the opportunity to see the young Cazenovia boy before, but he was sure impressive in that last match jockeying for position out there.

40 seconds left in the first period, just bang used a little duck under combination a little bit ago in the earlier part of this period.

It wouldn't surprise me to see him come back with the duck under single leg combination for a takedown.

But he's only got 31 seconds to put that together, say, in the middle.

Kimpson gone for the ankle pick.

Well, Joe has to get way in there on this fellow.

He's tall himself.

His opponent is very tall.

We don't have a takedown here in this period.

You'll notice there's going to be a warning falling against one of these boys at the end of this period, because here by rule, there has to be one of them warned if there has not been a previous warning or penalty for Sam during that first period.

We've got 9 seconds left.

And so we'll see who gets that warning.

And an ankle pick the ankle and that cost Joe again.

And there is another time when Iowa has picked up a takedown in a critical moment just before the end of a period, I would I wouldn't have expected that.

But he made it work together to good for our ankle pick out, Eric.

Here it is right here.

And I see that frankly picked with a kind of a head cut where they had control to wish half Nelson affair, but it was really the ankle pick that did it.

Those are the kinds of things that turn meats around.

It happened to Nielsen and it happened here.

He now on top is Dustpan, who's a tough rider.

He uses a conventional ride pretty much that arm and he picked at waist ankle picks, too.

And that makes it real tough.

It's kind of interesting.

You know, you go that entire first one minute and 58 seconds or so and bang, zero zero, now you're down two to nothing.

It puts a little different complexion on the entire match right now, just fans in there with kind of a box.

It's got a double step in full scissors.

I don't know if he's up, but he is not a figure four.

But he just I don't think the referees let him keep that very long.

You know, he really won't unless he put something together with it up above.

And this is going to be back to the middle.

2 minutes, 12 seconds left to go, two to nothing, Kim Smith of Iowa.

But you hear coaches talking about he's going to be okay if he gets it.

You what's going to happen?

Hold for just a just a fraction of a second.

The voice you hear, I guess, wouldn't hold it.

Let's go on.

The best player gets it, he cautioned.

Iowa State wrestler in this case just can't because he didn't get in there and gets that when he was going to do so.

How Dustpan tried to get a half Nelson.

They missed it.

He got a little bit too high nice trying to get back on him.

His good position again.

He got on that toe a little bit himself.

I'm surprised that he's back on the instep.

He can't be on that.

Told to hold illegal just dustpan.

You can see him fighting to get back down where his balance was.

He almost lost that.

But he had yes, he has that good balance.

You mentioned him was able to come back and stay on top to do anything with a minute.

35 left.

Kim's at the man on the bottom leads both coaches.

I start to say a while ago, talk about momentum.

You hear it in every game.

Oh, that momentum means a lot.

It means something to turn in.

But Zach Band was there with a bear hug.

Ooh, ooh.

I looked to see if Kenseth was, like, up smiling or the stars in his eyes or for a minute he landed right in his head.

But he's okay.

121 Get set.

You're okay now.

Hold it.

Okay.

Come, man.

Don't go.

Gets it.

And away they go.

Good job here, Doug.

Are keeping the rhythm in a lot of down underneath.

They shouldn't have to have trying to go out the back door and now just man with, like he's looking around to see if he could stack it right in the middle.

Got him on kind of a goal.

What kind of a duck under roll combination there.

But just bam, riding him tough with the arm around.

He's gone 2 minutes and 2 seconds here.

He's going to have to move up and be more offensive working toward the fall or he's going to get called.

He gets it.

Hang back.

I've trying to reach him for the firearm right in.

Kim's a stand up or maybe not letting anybody.

He stood up.

Now he's got a half NELSON Almost a half Nelson.

He lost it.

35 seconds left.

Left hander won't want to sit in that position too long.

He'll want to come up and regain his pace there.

He did, because that's a good place to lose.

What what points you have and suspend is behind two to nothing.

He'd Love to get some back points here if he could, but I think it's a little getting late in the period.

15 seconds left he's got the deep waist and then the near Armbar and of course he's pressuring down pretty heavy on pins If the consequently, Kenseth can't regain his base, not much he can do offensively from that bottom position.

And he has to keep possible to to keep from getting called for stalling because his points now if he does the end of the second period, Bruce Kim south of Iowa to Joseph Spann of Iowa State zero going into this third period.

But I notice up here, what have we got 3 minutes of any time for?

Just bam.

So you're looking at the Iowa State bench.

That's Dale Barr in the blue, assistant coach talking to Mike Land.

And Dale was a national champion from Algona, went back to coach his old high school after he left Iowa State.

There was my fault, I think my own fault.

But he coached it out.

That's right.

That's right.

But he went back to all the sorry, all you people in north central Iowa.

Just bad.

He wants to come up, split those hands and get his neutral.

So now, as so often happens in tight matches like this, it comes down to a takedown in the third period, just bam has some riding time in effect, unless there's more riding time, it's virtually a dual match.

But a draw.

Oh, here, that's a draw at this point, Doug, you're right.

Unless more points are scored and I'm sure there will be more points in that we have to 19 left in the third period.

Just bam just that has not been successful.

On his speed here in the first period, Kenseth managed to hold him off quite a little bit and made most of the offensive moves himself.

Joe going to have to put together some offensive moves here on his feet.

Ah, here we come with just man up on his feet and stand up position.

He splits the hands, comes out into that.

It spins out into the position for lack of live action.

And in those go just bad for a takedown.

We lost a single leg, but he got it and he now leads 3 to 2.

That happened fast rate of two twos, dustpan leads himself in the wizard position and you see a dustpan in that old snowplow when he clobbered him.

Yeah, that was a good maneuver.

You know, he tried to put that together in the first period and just missed it a couple of times.

But a duck under single leg combination.

And then he dropped in that high, the hip high for the High Crotch series.

And he did a good job of it.

And he broken down there out of bounds with the ankle after the trip.

Some people used to call it the old snowplow.

I call that you get enough of those.

The head of the snowplow is your nose asleep on the board for about a month out of our another tough judgment call at the end, he made, I think, what I would consider the right call.

He right on top of that.

First, Kenseth thought he should have had a point or an escape plan was still in there.

Tough on him now just been riding.

It's really been in there.

It's a trip out the back door.

But just finally, I couldn't stand up.

Forward roll combination.

Yes, it was successful for one of the earlier matches, but not in this one.

Now back to the wizard.

A lot of range back there.

Kenseth looking good with this, looking good motor falcons, this block Falcon there with that wizard that keeps him coming on from behind.

And it's even up.

We have a tie, three, three.

Although all those dustpan, all those dustpan has writing time with a minute and 5 seconds left.

We got a lot of wrestling left here yet in this man.

Oh, boy, it's conditioning.

Who wants it the most?

Kenseth is working hard.

Just man goes for the fireman's carry.

Can't quite reach the bottom end of it, but he wants it to work.

That fireman's one duck under off of the foam and high crotch look like something hot.

He got a single leg model and threw for what looked like.

Maybe we have a third here in the bottom.

He hit the mat pretty hard.

Yeah.

Is a little bit days with two.

Let's bring you up to date here.

33 seconds left in a man just found wood riding pride leads 3430543523.

Iowa leads in the meet the four guys here Stay there.

Let me know when you're keeping it tight.

Let me know when there's one man left to go in this this last takedown that just been here.

We come in to the single right here.

He picked him real tough.

He's got a lot of power in here.

Here he goes.

Go to pick him right here.

Looks like he's going to take him out with a lot of power, forcing him to and picking that leg going into the half.

It looks like they get that boy hit pretty tough on his head first.

Yes.

Won the slam by any sense of the imagination, but he hit the mat pretty tough.

Well, each of these teams has a team position along there, all from their winning at the minute.

Hobbes cut him a little bit, but not necessarily protective and go behind him.

32 seconds left.

That's been really one of that takedown.

Doug, you notice the way he really went after that with a lot of eagerness.

Get ahead in the middle.

The next time he gets a point, get your head and set middle.

You move in rough.

He was telling this at that time to get the proper position on top and he had to have that handle on the midline of this case against his back in order to get a legal start.

Just man riding topping up high, not allowing himself to get the whizzer.

We have 15, 14 seconds left as dustpan trips it down again, 10 seconds.

We're going real tough right now.

He's hanging back a little bit o slip and a half.

NELSON Once in a while gives up.

Would like to get the wizard that he knows he can go up and it's now 6 to 3 the end of the match tough ban brings Iowa State back to within two Charles US ban with riding time wins 6 to 3 over Bruce cancer and the scar at the end of the £150 match at the end of the halfway point in this piece before 14,300 people the Hilton coliseum in Ames, Iowa, nine and Iowa State seven.

We have Kelly Ward versus Stevenson coming up.

Heller, Indiana, two outstanding youngsters at 67.

And then end to the strength of Iowa State's lineup, Gadson and Santana.

There is Kelly Ward, undefeated in 1977 78, and there is Mark Stevenson up with Iowa, one of the finest young wrestlers to come out of a of a small Iowa high school in a long time.

Yes, very much so.

Mark's a real fine competitor.

He's been injured off and on here the last year or so.

A single-A high class, Kelly Ward, and he's looking out for what may turn out to be a takedown, although it is now in is with a minute 35 left but took in 25 seconds to get that one.

Ward would like to make this a big one That was a real good maneuver on the part of Ward.

It was quick.

Kelly Ward, Kelly's father, as we've said before, was a one time offers on the coaching staff football at Iowa State.

Owens and Stevenson goes out there.

The fans kind of thought maybe he was running for the edge.

He really wasn't running for the edge in that case.

He was trying to get out there to get an elongated position, maybe put something together.

That's a that's a common thing.

Maybe in the last part of the last period you might garner that as being a small maneuver or something.

But that wasn't his intent there or riding from the stand up position against Mark Stevenson, who rolls.

But Kelly recovers as a good point, all attempting to stand up.

But Walker very quick and of course crowded around the line real well.

There you see the score Iowa nine, Iowa State seven a minute, 14 left, £158 Marshall.

There are some of the 14,300 came to help them tonight.

I hope you're enjoying it around Florida, what appears to be much stronger than Stevenson.

And yet physically, when you look at him, it does appear that way.

I think Stevenson may have a little leverage on him due to his height, but otherwise words got pretty much what you and I call command of this match.

He's got controlled down in that match without Matt, without any problem at all to do nothing, or at least you might mention that we have other mates coming up.

This is the first of a series of the Iowa State, and the next one is going to be on Monday night at 10:30 p.m.. Iowa, I guess.

Number four, Wisconsin right here from Hilton to management just managed to stand up, but ward counters staying in behind and you're watching it live tonight, it's kind of hard to look ahead.

We weren't worried in that case, but it looks to me like he's calling because he will be eating Stevenson to get off the mat for he would move at one point.

His feet also a judgment thing.

But it looked as though that's what the call was for.

Mike, Israel's leaving, no doubt about who's in charge of this made.

Well, he's making him wrestle.

There's not enough Stevenson turns out of the food.

And Kelly Ward now has gone from two down to a draw to two.

Oh, that was kind of a sit out, no spin back type combination.

A combination off of this puts set out for the two pointer on the part of Stevenson.

He's no slouch in the wrestling with an excellent high school wrestler and he's not going to he's not going to quit here.

He's going to stay right here.

23 seconds left in the first period coming up, period.

And this is one Iowa stand reversal right here.

This is where Stevenson, you see now comes back off of a kind of a look like a step over combination into a two point reversal.

But it was really no definite move as combination of two or three Bell Kelly got there is no escape and Ward leads 3 to 2.

Ward got caught in a difficult position He couldn't unravel quick enough to Riko to respond.

The clock is telling you how much time is left in the first period.

Once these wrestlers get to their feet.

You notice shared with Ward while he got to his feet there it was upper body strength where he was able to split those arms of him.

Stevenson, for his escape end of the first period.

Now we go to your choice.

Number two.

It's Iowa State's.

Choi takes tap.

Right?

Here comes our escape right now on the back four.

Look at that.

It comes up underneath that arm.

It spins out right here.

There it is for the one point loop neutral position.

Now back to live action.

And there's Harold Nichols.

And you can see he's excited to watch thumb move Ward from the whistle takes his man up in the air on Stevenson spins comes out with the leg now that's twice that that move has not worked very well for Kelly and he's got a fight to keep from losing to here.

Yes no points yet.

There hasn't been any point scored yet.

Lauderdale has control in the eyes of the official.

I think I would have to agree with him at this point.

But he's always up very high.

Change pretty quick, out of bounds, no change of control.

Ward still has control and he'll be on top when they come back.

The middle.

Yeah.

I think Spike Israel has discovered what I've thought for a long time that refereeing a wrestling match can be a very colorful thing if you want it to be.

I'm not sure everybody likes it that way.

Having fun?

One thing tonight here, whether one agreed with it or not, and I would agree with it personally, and I think most people would that he's he's been right on top of that stalling, cautioning and consequently we've had a lot of offensive wrestling.

Now Kelly award has been going up very high.

My impression is he's been a little chancy in some of those moves.

I think he probably feels in his own mind that going in, he's confident enough to know how to do that.

He rides pretty high.

And of course, that's true of a lot of wrestlers today.

They right up around those shoulder that upper body because they're able to put together some pretty combinations.

And that's what the name of the game is, so to speak, is try to get that man on his back or go one down on the ankle right away.

And then came up when he thought he had a situation that had Stevenson's head, Lockwood rolls and he came into another one again Ward reacts.

But Stevenson has been has been giving Kelly a lot of trouble that role that's kind of a forward kind of a half forward side role.

It really isn't a full combination forward roll, as most of us would call it, but he's pretty effective with it.

Ward's been just fortunate enough to counter to a couple of times here, but he may not be so fortunate the next time it isn't coming at him quite the way he's used to seeing rolls.

And he's no, he's not quite with a208 in the second period, 3 to 2 Ward leaving, Stevenson is trying to crowd him a little bit back there with his hips and consequently it kind of keeps him loose back there and affords him an opportunity underneath to put some moves together.

You see him getting ready, wanting to roll again, but Ward is controlling him a little better than he has just recently.

You notice there's a roll and he's coming out again.

That's really a tough move he's got.

But now Ward is back on top and he calls it an escape.

And then Cooper Ward, I think fight was a little quick for that one.

Well, I have a kind of a tough call.

It was a two or three series move there, but he did give the one on the tube comes out.

Right.

Anyway, five for ward now three for Stevenson.

And Ward has moved up into a chicken wing on the near arm.

As you can see, out of bounds here comes out move right here.

Stevenson is real tough on that roll look here.

Looks like he's going to his back, but he's pivots back to the inside.

He's coming in.

He's going to face him.

It looks like he's gay in the neutral position.

Your one point that he gave.

And there it comes, Ward back with a two point quickly, you know, a short change of positions or, you know, it looks as if I think Ward looks like he stays with it longer than you think because it looks like he's going to put the man on his back.

Well, you know, he's a tight rider at times, but at other times he appears to be loose and he's loose enough back there that he does a good job of countering.

And now we're getting a warning against about a man against Stevenson of Iowa in the £158 ward has a chicken wing.

It looks like the referee's looking to see if he's going to hide.

It appears the idea that he called it potentially dangerous, that could very easily go into an illegal maneuver.

And that's why that he did stop him.

58 seconds left in the second period.

The rule on that, Doug, for the fans that don't know on that chicken wing, that bar, I'm serious.

He's got to go somewhat perpendicular to the long axis or long part of the body.

He can't go parallel.

It means that he goes parallel away.

Then it's illegal or potentially dangerous.

Spins upon the the gray lines that the official calls it in.

But that can be dangerous.

Or in the last 50 seconds here, Ward takes there aren't much of a head leaver position where he can control that near arm.

He's controlling that near arm real well.

And he's got a deep weight straight on in there, too.

But it wouldn't surprise me.

He'll come back into that chicken wing maneuver pretty quick.

But this is where this is where Stevenson has been rolling out, right, right on the spot.

And it's tough to know where it's coming from.

It works.

The ward right now is handling and pretty well down, though he's not giving him any base to work off of.

Once he regains his knees, then he'll have that opportunity to put that role, if that's what he desires together again.

But he got 17 seconds left and Ward is being warned for stalling.

Now, the reason why he's warning him and I can't read his mind, but from where we sit here, Doug, it would appear, is because all it was doing is writing.

He's not working for the fall.

He's merely he's doing what you and I would call control wrestling.

And that's going now or counter waiting for the other fellow to make the move.

It's going to kill him.

And that has to be a point because a warning was given previously.

It's 5 to 4.

And Stevenson is very much in this 13 seconds left in the second period, Hearts beat fast at Hilton Coliseum because this is one that Iowa State knows it has to win.

Not really the end of the second period.

Kelly Ward five.

Mark Stevenson for Iowa's nine.

There's Harold Nichols.

Welcome back to his seat.

Iowa State seven.

That's that's correct.

WARD Here at the last part of that last crew is getting a little bit higher.

And I think you've been doing that to avoid any call of falling back behind, because he's going to have to put something together when he's on top right now.

He comes into the set up position, Stevenson counters it just burn down on the top part of the body there with a lot of pressure.

But Ward regains Pace, tries to go into a side role.

Here it comes.

But he's off the mat.

Yes.

And with 244 left, that took 16 seconds, that little flurry from the whistle.

And as soon as there's a whistle, you'll see the coaches jump up and run out to the edge of the mat.

There's Dale Barr.

I would expect that with Ward, we'll see a standup, attempted standup escape to get to his feet.

He has a much better chance there, but he couldn't quite make it that time.

Stevenson Keeping him down, Well, there's a lot of pressure being brought down on the upper part of Ward's body.

But here he comes back with a duck under roll, maestro, and he's out.

That took just a few seconds.

232 left now in the match.

Here we come.

Just nothing more of a duck out the back door.

Yep.

That's a real good move.

Kind of like a duck under from a neutral position to what amounted to Doug with the duck back.

He got out to the outside, fired up to get that.

He had under 43 point reverse.

Warren has 4 minutes and 2 seconds of riding time with a 7 to 4 lead, and Stevenson has 48 seconds.

We're in the third period.

I would expect that we'll see Ward riding a little higher now, working first with four.

Yes.

And Stevenson is doing a little different things on the bottom.

And I try and step over my front.

Beautiful exit.

Step over here.

He's real long, he's longer, he's tall.

You know, he's got that leverage in those legs a little bit longer.

He made this double work pretty well, but that's something he hasn't done before.

That was a completely different maneuver.

At 7 to 6 and 2 minutes left in the match.

I see that work the other way.

I've seen this step over like that.

Go roll and out comes ward.

But I think they were out of bounds with no pass.

I was saying there previously on this Step Over on that, step over previously that you could very easily get caught.

If you're careless with that and don't step over here.

We come right here.

Now notice your stepping over.

See, they caught him off his base.

But if he had been on his base, Stevenson could get caught on his back.

Likewise.

But he caught Kelly Ward off his base there for the two point reversal.

Yes.

And before that, he was standing up underneath.

Now Ward is out for another point.

It's 8 to 6.

Ward, the Iowa State boy and red leads 8 to 6 with riding one minute and 40 seconds left.

A lot of wrestling left.

Doug Oh, yes.

And this one has been stopped a lot.

So it seems to be taking a long time.

I wanted to build up 4 minutes and 16 seconds, routing time against 119 for Stevenson, but we got an 8 to 6 match score.

So there's a lot to happen here.

He wraps and each man has to keep out of it because there have been some mornings, especially Ward here, Ward is a serious position for getting a little bit cautious.

That's right.

He's got to put some offense together, but he missed a shot and almost got caught backing out back to center.

Nick Stephens is going to have to carry the fighting and we're going to have to realize that he's going to have to maintain some offense out there, too, or it's going to be a point penalty here again, pretty quick.

Yes.

When Kelly has been a little bit lax, maybe not being as aggressive as he wants to be, that's where he's lost his points.

And I think there's no stalling against the isles.

Iowa boy Stevenson, that was for backing out of there.

He definitely the referee definitely called that correctly.

And he indicated at nine know what you may want to play 9 to 6.

It makes him wrestle in the middle and that's what it's all about.

Keep him out in the middle out match and keep as much offense going possible.

Ward is probably fairly content to stay where he is, but the referee isn't going to let him do it.

He says.

That's a stalemate.

Now, 36 seconds left, 926 words.

Not going to do anything careless at this point.

He's got a96 lead with riding time.

Make it ten six.

He needed to make one good shot.

Yeah, that's right.

Definitely.

And Stevenson's got to have some points.

He's got to be moving out of bounds.

Spike is real referee watching very closely.

Gordon doing a pretty good job of warding him off there so that he can't put in the offensive maneuvers to get a spin around by ward.

Nice reaction however, by Stevenson it was just a snap down counter on the part of Ward.

It was almost the work of the net quiet.

Now Ward is being very busy, but he doesn't really mean anything by it.

Not at that point, not with about five 6 seconds left and the winner at £158, Kelli Ward.

The score ten for Ward with riding time six four.

Mark Stevenson and the team score with a three point decision for Iowa State, the Cyclones ten and Iowa nine.

The Cyclones.

Hey, what do you know?

They're making signs for Republic TV now.

Number one there.

I think our director out the truck made that It took him about an hour.

Here is the £167 match between two brilliant sophomores and two young men.

One is sophomore Mike Deanna, who finished third in the Nationals last year as a freshman for Iowa.

He's really something, you know, if you've seen him or if you saw him here on one of the matches on TV last year, Charles Heller is £167 for Iowa State.

He is a freshman.

And you'd think Deanna would be a big favorite.

He is the favorite, but everybody knows that Heller is a toughie.

That's right.

He sure is.

For a freshman, it appears to me at this point, he's got pretty good leverage, too.

He's got that height.

He's 16 and four this year.

He's a freshman from Pennsylvania.

And They met in high school in a freestyle meet.

Deanna won it.

No, I'm sorry.

Heller won it.

And that's why sometimes people say this could be a good look.

Actually, it was a draw, I understand.

66.

And on criteria there, I don't want it.

But he got caught in a fireman's carry and he's got a trouble spot.

He's points yet no points yet Harry gave them to pointing down for Deanna in off of the car He went to the far side really on that carry if you wish single legs and that particular fireman's carry can turn into real trouble Looks like he might tighten them up and hang up there and get some back points out of it to.

Yeah, you're absolutely right.

That's a good point, Doug.

When they can't see that back line, I can't see.

There it is right here.

You see, he's got that near an arm pinned, too.

And Doug, you made a good point there.

If he kept that near arm pin, he could have maybe kept Scott garnered some four points here.

We have 48 seconds left in the first period, Mike, Deanna has lost one match this year.

He lost in the Midlands.

There's a point for Heller and he lost it in the Midlands.

To Dave Powell, who is being redshirted this year at Iowa State, where he lost to a good one then because Paul was real tough, but that's the first time he's ever lost to Powell.

I think Mike Diatta right now, they're just kind of set eye on each other and try to pick out a weak spot if there is one.

First warning.

Warning, First warning against Heller.

Charlie Heller is wrestling at 167 and ain't easy for him to get the 67, we understand, but he's done it.

I notice the referee there indicated the warning because he was not staying in the center of the mat and I think that likewise, well, we'll see a little better match as a result of that being called early in the match.

There's the end of the first period it's choice.

Whose choice?

Now?

The referee, I think, take down Iowa, takes down, setting up for the second period.

But right now there's Dan Gable trying to be as calm as possible to two on the down man.

Diana is the leader.

Heller of Iowa State starts the second period on top.

Deanna wants stand.

He's up he's up there pretty high on on Deanna.

He sure is.

He's in a figure four.

He'll have to come out of that before too long, I think.

No, you can't have a figure four without the other leg.

Is he got it now?

There it is.

He's in what many people would call a potentially dangerous situation.

He could break of dirt.

Yes, because the bottom man could hurt him.

Could the very easily in a fall back?

Or what if he called it a stalemate situation?

He could have called it either stalemate or potentially dangerous.

Either 102, two, one.

Heller is Daily Bar tells me that Charlie Heller is going to be quite a hitter, and so he likes to ride high.

Well, if he's going to be a winner.

And of course, that's what I was going to mention a while ago.

He's up high, but I'm sure that he's thinking four points or fall.

You've got that half Nelson in there now and barn down with the other make it a pretty tough and he's got that near leg pretty well under control a pie on the hips consequently Deanna is finding it tough going on an 8 to 10 left in the second period.

Now again where I'm putting a lot of pressure on it.

He's tough with those legs.

I can see that at this early point.

And he seems to be putting enough pressure on up top now.

He's awfully high.

Deanna looks like he wants to come out back again.

Doug, I've said it repeatedly, but notice how he controls the hips.

That takes all the moves away from that bottom man.

Lutz He can get up to the base stalemate.

Start again, boys.

Stalemate.

With 146 left in the second period.

All these matches are crucial, every single one of them.

And I think as you've seen so far, there isn't a single one where the underdog could not win.

That's right.

Absolutely.

In this kind of a contest where you get real talented athletes against one against the other way.

Now, this time Deanna gets all the way up right away and gets a turn in.

No point you're still with him.

Oh, he's tough.

Deanna has the Whizzer.

He's trying to get a little pressure and come around, but Heller's trying to stay behind him all the time.

He's locked in there on him.

Pretty tough call.

Locked.

Hands locked.

Hands on Charlie Heller.

That call, I think when he's up on his feet, he can lock in on him.

Except that I think that call was a little bit I wouldn't say late, but it probably he probably wanted to make that call sooner because it appeared as though, oh, yeah, I'll go with them.

But it takes both.

Well, he took them down.

They're both to get on that when you take them down.

Well I think his judgment was that the knee was down on the mat earlier.

Consequently, the locked hands, of course, is illegal when the wrestler dominant.

So it's 3 to 1 now, here's a locked hand situation here right now.

And of course, referee went right there.

You see the knee hit the mat.

And that from there, I think is where he made that decision.

He said it was more than reaction time.

Yeah.

All right.

Heller is still on top.

However, it doesn't change that.

3 to 1 a minute.

17 left in the second period.

The analytics, the favorite, Deanna Heller, is doing a good job on top.

And I tell you, he's tough for those late primary.

He's controlling those hips and he's working on the upper body to see if he can get some points.

Yeah, that's trying to shake him off and that's going to be tough sledding for him to do that.

It's like, oh, he did it, though, right there.

He shook him down.

It's like a gorilla trying to keep from falling out of a tree.

Well, he got him up high on the body and ducked over, ducked through, and consequently came up back door for two points.

The only trouble is the tree is moving.

45 seconds, about 49 seconds left.

You saw a replay of that action on the edge of the mat.

5 to 1 now is the score.

Mike Diana of Iowa leads Charlie Heller of Israel.

Okay, Remember, we'll have Wisconsin here at Hilton Coliseum on Monday night.

We'll have a tape delay broadcast of that one at 1030 on HBO.

Right now, Wisconsin ranked number four, and they have some outstanding returning national champion Lee Kemp.

As you at 1.1 points off of a stand up resume maneuver, 5 to 2.

Well, I'd say whoever wins this, you're looking at two of the best youngsters in the country.

Absolutely.

Vienna was two quick four in that time.

Now it's almost Charlie saying, where do you go?

Heller had a good move prior to that, but didn't follow through on that ankle pick or he might have garnered some points.

7 to 2.

Now Deanna leads by five and every little point counts up toward that ten total, Deanna would like to get something more here and maybe get a by the end of the second period.

We have a score at Hilton Coliseum and the £167 match.

Mike Deanna of Iowa seven, and Charlie Heller of Iowa State to the team score Iowa State ten and Iowa nine.

They've each each team has won three matches but Mike land at £126.

A major decision on Randy Lewis to put Iowa State ahead by one point.

At this rate, the state of the game right here comes kind of a sit down switch maneuver for a good one point escape That was executed.

So now seven three in writing time, Heller has the advantage there.

205 55 seconds for Indiana two tough youngsters from Pennsylvania.

Yes, that's very true.

I think we have Heller from Milton, Pennsylvania.

Indiana's from, I think, Dennis from Bay Village, Ohio, however.

All right.

Well, they're close to an Iowa.

What's it shot by, Anna Heller?

Couldn't Duckett add up comes the Anna countered by a what started to be a wizard for a while now the firearm and Heller is doing very well now.

He's coming off with kind of a whizzer, a quarter.

NELSON First quarter.

NELSON The first quarter Nelson would be very similar to your half and that's a good counter move to 11 left 723 here come here's your state maneuver right there with a good set up.

Now back to late action.

Heller goes into a single leg and he's behind the Anybody has to take him down now.

I don't know.

There it is, a shot out.

But there was time for a switch by the end to set up a one point escape.

And it's now 8 to 5.

We'll try to sometimes we get a little behind in the scoring and we apologize for that.

Heller of Iowa State A minute 40 left, four, six, five, 8 to 5 has had an arm control there from the front DNA run 8 to 5 scrimmaging for the take down.

At this point, Vienna has the overall arm hook.

Yep.

And we're going go back to the middle down like Israel says.

Let's get out here, read in both work.

And now he's telling the coaches that I want to sit down Iowa State.

I know it's exciting, but go back there where everybody else can shoot 8 to 5 who had shot the tempo.

They're going to hit a real good move on the part of Heller.

But he hasn't.

You got to and he's up high.

Both boys are getting a Chuck and Heller's work for the Blue Point takedown.

And Heller has writing time.

So it's a virtual tie at this point with 53 seconds left.

Anything but Indiana win is an upset, and now Heller is trying to put pressure on it, come up about trying to put him on his back, if he can.

The end is trying to shake him, but he's trying that killer trying to get him turn for the four points if he can.

But there are no ball points out.

Now, the thing is here, if he has to hold him because of the Anna gets out, he wins.

That's right.

And a escape by Diana is a win for Iowa.

We've got 23 seconds left and nobody can accuse Heller, I think, of stalling at this point.

15 seconds.

Well, he's been trying to turn here.

He hit to game three with your porter Nelson for half Nelson.

Whether he's up high now, he's coming back in the park, but he's lost a leg there.

He's lost a leg.

He's going to have to hustle because he's way high.

2 seconds.

One second.

And it's a time out of the record.

Man, Oh, man.

You will find Russell.

And Iowa State gets one set of points.

They did not expect that break.

I don't think they did anyway, here we go with it.

Here's an excellent no point.

It is a takedown.

Pick up the real good escape on a set up kind of a switch maneuver.

And it's a draw.

Oh, there are some happy people at Iowa State.

The fans here at Hilton Coliseum are on their feet, whether they're from Iowa or whether they're for Iowa State team scores, Iowa State, 12 and Iowa 11 each gets two for that Grinnell.

Now, here are two.

Well, let's put it this way.

Iowa has Iowa State pass to win both of these matches to go into the heavyweight because they don't figure the heavy weight as a win gadson against Greg Stephens.

Here is Charlie Gadson, another newcomer all the way.

He's a senior.

He was a junior college champion for Iowa State.

He had a brother named Willie who, graduated here and was a fine wrestler.

And there goes Charlie Gadson in with a very tough he went into kind of a single fireman's carry combination off the mat.

It still remained a neutral position.

Well, I take it they get more excited here Dave He's got a single in on him now.

If he can get that thing high enough he wants to over hook that ankle you'll put him to the mat for two.

Stephens has an over hook or a whizzer series on him to counter and there was like chest pressure on everybody by Jackson to get the two points.

Now, Iowa State is very high on this young man to the where it is and he'll give you 8 minutes solid and Gadson leads but Stephens is a brilliant here's how here comes our two points right here notice how he spends him to the mat off of that real quick hook is based off of him.

It's good.

Yep.

Stephens was a that's been a national place winner at 190.

And it must be said that there is courage in other places in wrestling that right out of the mouth he had to come down to 177 to wrestle this year to help his team.

That's right.

Both he and Bud Palmer, 130 pounder night for Iowa are both former 180 pounder.

So someone had to give an order to make the team a little strong Gazza Working on a chicken wing on the near side.

He's given Stephens a lot to think about at the moment.

I think just working kind of a bar, I'm sure he's there right now, but he's got a lot of pressure on it.

Consequently, Stephens can't do much in the bottom 41 seconds left, ready getting turned on right now.

And referee Spike Israel saying watch out arm, watch the shoulder.

He doesn't want to take that too high on him or he's going to call it.

Now, the half Nelson from the other side didn't quite get it.

He can't go parallel to the long axis of the body, so to speak.

Now he's in pretty good shape.

They could get him turned to the inside.

Only trouble is he's on the wrong side of the mat, out of bounds.

Well, that's the only call that could have been made there.

18 seconds left.

The first period.

GADSON Charlie got, some 22 and one this year.

He was the Midlands champion, wasn't he?

I think he was.

I think so.

I'm not certain, but I think maybe he was.

I really don't know.

For sure.

I forgot.

I don't have my Midlands results here.

I know that.

That his brother Willi wrestling unattached one of 190.

Okay, top man, get I can see right now that earlier part of that period that he's tough on top he bears right down on notice out a roll but Gadson we cover he's a loose arm top he's loose nothing he can counter that type move to the right to try to find it pretty difficult to make that counter.

Now he's in the leg.

Here we are at the end of the period that he got out one.

Yeah, that's the referee session.

And once again, Iowa comes up with an end of the period move.

That was a good call.

That had to be made.

He was out for the time, caught out 2 to 1.

I know Harold Nichols.

There it is right there.

Excellent move on the part of a counter on the part against in there.

I know Terrell Nichols must be thinking if we could just take 5 seconds out of those first periods, we'd be ahead by father.

Now 2 to 1 as a score, Gadson is up by Jordan right now, just kind of loose back there, picking up our ankle, deep waist and Miron bars.

That's basically what he's using.

A minute and 33 seconds.

All right in time and counting.

You know, it's rather interesting to the fan who doesn't know much about wrestling.

If you watch our top wrestling, if he if you if he breaks it down, he bears a lot of weight in this corner, part of the back of the bottom wrestler.

And he may weigh only £177, but it feels like 277 because of the pressure it's bearing down.

So it's a lot tougher than what it appears now.

The Crossface, he's got a crossface there you can see Stephen's racing up there with his leg to try to keep Gadson from getting any pressure against him and turning him over to this near leg.

You've got that on board Pretty tough.

Yes.

Now he's giving him the old bow and arrow bit head right in the middle and see if he can bring the top and the bottom together.

That's a point for Gadson, because stalling has just been called on Greg Stephens after a warning earlier.

So it's now I think at this point, however, Stephens will find it a pretty tough sledding on the bottom.

He Can't do much because Gadson just all over him.

I'm not sure the scoreboard is reflecting that.

I see 2 to 1, he's going to dump him in a double arm tie up.

He doesn't have any point yet.

He just kind of roll through off because he burned both arms.

If he'd had a little bit more time there, maybe it would have been too much of a hurry, might have gone too far.

But the Stephens rolled on through effectively that I think the scoreboard is wrong.

The scoreboard should be 3 to 1.

And here's another stalling against another point.

Now the scoreboard has 3 to 1.

It might be history for everyone to note at this point that there had been two penalty points for stalling.

The next time it's a two pointer and after that it's disqualification.

Okay.

Now, Stephens is holding his shoulder and he's asking for help from the bench.

Well, I tell you, Charlie Gadson just keeps his opponent rather well occupied out there.

Your mind doesn't wander about, You know, he's out there with his spurs.

Well, he's been real tough on that Armbar series, and he might have wanted it when he put him over on his back.

He didn't get any false points.

When he put him over in at Double Bar, he might have twisted that shoulder in such a way as to maybe cause a strain somewhere there.

He got injured and real badly.

But I'm sure that this train, you can see referee Spike Israel there taking advantage of the Iowa water bottle.

And that's Willy Gadson on the left, mopping up his brother, Charlie.

Yeah, well, look at him sitting on the Iowa bench tonight caring for his brother Mark at can't really go right here for a dump.

Jim Right quick.

There it is with a double bar on.

But he's getting caught early.

Four points off of that.

I think that's the point where the young Stephen boy got his shoulders great and the fans again are on their feet, 14,300.

That has to be an estimated crowd.

But if I if you see an empty seat right here, Dave, let me know.

Well, there's no doubt that prior to the meter was starting, it was all tickets were sold.

So that's 14,300, I think approximately gas and on top, again, leading 3 to 1 with a lot of riding time.

And he's tough up there.

Right.

And you keep set at him all the time.

Just keeps pecking away.

And consequently, the boy in the bottom doesn't get an opportunity to put any moves together.

That's a secret and riding on top, By the way, there's so many secrets, I guess.

But on top, if you can have a variety of attack that has a variety of moves up there, boy in the bottom doesn't have a chance to put a move together.

All he's thinking about is defense staying off my back.

And that's exactly what gets him full term.

He's keeping him so busy down there as that.

Ahmad Now referee's the angle of the shoulder.

Very careful.

We don't we go hard with that bomb, that cross face over there and lost it.

12 seconds left in the second period.

He's definitely dominating Charlie Gibson Again, you look up and you see it's only 3 to 1.

That's right.

We've had two penalty points.

Thus we're not Harold Nichols and we've only had one penalty point.

I thought we had two.

Doug Myers We've had the stalling and then the penalty him.

So we only had one.

The clock is ticking to the end of the second period.

We're at £177 at the Hilton Coliseum in Ames.

Live tonight, Iowa State against Iowa and the Cyclones lead at the end of the first seven matches, 12 to 11.

You'd think that that if there has been a turning point so far, it has been the draw that Charles Heller got at 167 with Deanna.

He's giving a caution on the top man in this case, Stevens, at this time, because he was not getting down there.

Get ready to go in the start position, Gadson came to the stand up position.

He's going to come out of there.

Looks like he wants to come down again and switch early.

Might be one to go for the to run the one.

But I would rather think that he'll go for anything that he can get here pretty quick.

Yeah, get back on top as quickly as he can.

I think you'll see him popping up to his feet here pretty quick.

Remember in the next match, I hate to look ahead at any of these, but Frank Santana, the national champion, wrestles Bud Palmer, who he says is one of the toughest man he's ever faced.

Well, he is a good one.

90 pounder, Diana with the grapevine on the leg up high, I think.

I'm sorry, Dad.

I'm in the wrong match.

Stephen.

That's easy to do.

That's Greg Stephens on my way.

Yes on top.

Charlie Gaston on the bottom.

Well, Gaston has an excellent whizzer, and it looks like he's going to come out of this with a point.

And not yet almost.

There It is not.

Yeah, not yet.

I think Stephen's.

Oh, no.

But there is the point.

I was going to say, if they were inside anymore, they probably would have behoove Stephens to let it go because he looked like he was going to get in a bad spot.

That was interesting to watch because the referee was really doing a good job watching what happened, and he was waiting to see where that hand would split.

The middle of Stephens is back, whether not he's going to give the one point to Gaston or not.

But Stephens lost control at the edge, and that had to be a one point.

But it's interesting, too, the Iowa state bench is saying that Stephens is stalling.

They know that he had to come down a long ways to make £177 of it.

And who had expected to have a hard time in the late minutes.

Here again is Willie Gadson on the right, and that's Iowa State wrestler in the blue, telling his brother how it's done.

I don't know.

He has to tell it.

Well, he's doing a pretty good job of it right now.

But I don't think there's any doubt that Stephens may have a strained shoulder.

But yes, whether they need to rest time tonight, we don't really know that.

But it's a tough match and gets him hearing it right to him.

2 minutes and 8 seconds left in the match.

We have a little mascot down here with the cheerleader again.

Now they can call it.

Yes.

All right.

Well, we've got a little time here.

Let's pause 5 seconds for station ID this time as you get left.

Here we go again.

£177.

It goes again.

The voice of Spike Israel.

He has a microphone in his pocket or he has the cable in his pocket.

Anyway, we've got 2 minutes and 5 seconds in this.

The final third period in the up position, neutral position, both boys scrimmaging for the takedown.

It's 4 to 1 in favor of Charlie Gadson in the red colors Iowa State flag.

He moved in for a single double sharp.

He has a lot of riding time, 4 minutes and 25 seconds.

Stephens has on top 49 seconds, looks like an attempted arm drag.

And then Stephens fell down gaps and came in.

No points yet, but as soon as Stephens loses that arm, it's too early for Stephens attempt to either a single double type combination.

But Garretson countered it well, and as a result, a counter worth two eight with a two point takedown 6 to 1.

And I'll tell you, it's I'm not sure I'd like to be the one out there trying to escape from Charlie Gadsden the way he's looked so far at this point.

Well, he's carrying the fight to him.

And I'll tell you, it's tough down into the bottom there.

And of course, he's going with that forearm bar, trying to get some ball points out of it, if he can, 6 to 1.

And then at 21, look at this point, Stephens doing all they can do, perhaps stay off his back.

But he's making her a little here now to come to his feet for a reversal or escape.

But he had Gadson with the ankle pick on the far side.

Who comes up off that as they would in some circles.

Hey, he's all over him like a blanket.

Stephens is just has no way of putting together any moves.

Gach, he's doing your job right.

He has the forearm, and he'd like to pull that out, get the crotch back there.

Stephens throws the leg out to brace himself against it.

You can see he isn't going anywhere in the bottom right now.

He's got a point for Gadson.

That's right.

That's our second penalty point there.

And I had it much earlier, but that's the second one.

Now, the next one would be a two pointer.

Well, I'm afraid that you were right the first time because it's now 7:00 tonight.

Well, I don't know.

I've lost track of what the score was, but it's 7 to 1 now.

You've got 20 to 21 seconds left, 7 to 2 after the escape and a skating out of the three go.

One point for Gadson now should be a two.

This should be a two pointer.

That should be a two pointer.

Now, that would make it a major decision with writing time.

That's right.

Now, the next time, if he has one, it's a disqualification.

That's a six pointer.

Insofar as teams can't control 9 to 2 and GACH and then on a single, all he has to do is sit on it.

Oh he gave it up and that lost a major decision five four with a score 9 to 4.

There it is.

Oh that one hurts Iowa State.

The Iowa State bench going, oh, that one got away and he lost it down.

If he had lost that takedown there, he too had the superior major there.

This is a winner with riding time 10 to 4.

Charlie Gadson, Iowa State and the team score at the end of the £177 match, Iowa State 15 and Iowa 11.

How is Santana, who wins at 190?

Iowa State cannot win.

Iowa cannot win the Heat because it would be a it would be a seven point difference.

And so Santana has to win.

But Palmer, lest you me need to be reminded, is a tough cookie.

Palmer's a tough competitor and.

He's been around wrestling a long time.

He's not going to go out there and lay down for anybody.

He'll give Frank a real fighting match.

And I think we all have to say that Santana is the heavy favorite to win this, but it's going to be a good bout.

He's undefeated 15 and Palmer's 11 and five.

They're both seniors.

Santana has finished second and then first in national championship tournament.

Yes, Last year he was the national champion.

He currently 15 all on the season, going under double dare.

He is the kind of a bear hug.

Yes, kind of a bear hug trip.

And as good national champions have, he has a lot of critics right here.

There's your little bear hug.

There comes your only he is trip really was much earlier than what it appeared but he was in underneath those arms and brought him down for the two two lions with a minute 25 left in the first period he turned him loose on purpose there for the one point.

But I think he wants to get takedown maneuvers.

They want to be content with trying to ride there on top.

And I don't think he feels he can get any four points at this point at least.

So we now have a21 score.

He's the latest in a long line outstanding.

180 pounders at Iowa State.

That's right.

We've had some good ones.

Al Nathan, Ben Peterson, Ben, a minutes left in the first period.

Frank Santana is from Skokie, Illinois.

And we have Bud Palmer from Muncie, Indiana, the Iowa born.

Oh, we know a lot of you will be right who are watching or Iowa fans because this is Iowa State country at Hilton Coliseum.

These two teams meet again February 18th, I think is the date in Iowa City.

I think we well, to point out here, while they're in a neutral position that Bud Palmer was redshirted last year, I believe, due to an existing neck injury.

So we'll see a lot of him this year around the pro wrestling circles.

2210500.

He's got another one on both.

You don't see a double star warning often, but I think it probably was pretty well merited there because neither boy was doing much to do on as a score.

There's a guy, Santana has a real good heel kick on the part of Santana.

He may have a little edge in speed.

It was quicker, but in the last 5 seconds, 4 to 1.

This time there's an end of the match, end of the period score, and Iowa State gets it.

They used to talk about that against Oklahoma State that remember when Myron Roderick was down it.

But here we go right here.

You see that pick there on that ankle?

Did a real nice job.

Pick that ankle for the two point takedown on the part of Santana.

When Myron Roderick was at Oklahoma State, he used to look out for his boys in the last 15 seconds or so.

It was a good stand up spin through for an escape on the part of Santana one pointer.

It's 5 to 1.

You take somebody down with 5 seconds left, they are going to get anything back on.

Oh, that's very true.

Good.

5 to 1 and Iowa State leads 15 to 11.

This a big one for Iowa State.

As we said, real good basic drop through good position on behalf of Santana.

He picks him up, takes him down for the two awful good move.

Getting there will get penetration.

Frank likes to use a high crotch, but he's been in there on doubles.

He's been able to go all the way through.

And notice he really came high on that too.

He really didn't have much at all as far as the legs were concerned.

But he got in deep.

He caught the farmer completely off his base, an off guard, and put him down pretty easily for the 2.7 to 1, 7 to 1 with two to go right here.

You notice, Eric, kind of a little duck under combination weather, picks him up, puts him down the mat for two point takedown.

You pick a man off the mat like that, it's pretty simple.

And so far it's putting him back to the mat because he has nothing to work off of.

A very little counter that he can put back on unit, sort of easy to garner the two points.

Palmer stands up and comes out for his third point.

It's 7 to 3.

He tried.

He tried to penetrate the defense and couldn't do it.

Frank Santana is very stable.

You saw him like he did, but I don't know what Frank is saying.

Frank Santana was talking to him to Spike, his real referee.

Oh, I see this.

And he's that effort to Here, here comes our escape on the back of Palmer.

No.

Tommy splits those arms, ducked back underneath the elbow and bang pushes off for the one pointer.

It was a good escape, a good effort on his part.

Did you hear Spike?

Israel said about Palmer says he's a hot dog and he's pretty good too.

At 7 to 2 here was Santana seven three years, 7 to 2.

I thought I saw three there a while ago.

Not much going on right now.

They're both kind of looking for position as far as a takedown is concerned.

There comes a real good move as he brings up the knee right to the head.

Well, they cut that single leg and spike the heel at the same time.

A trip that had excellent control, 9 to 2.

Well, Santana can just do so many things to his opponent.

That's how it is right here.

Watch you take that far knee, that near knee there, then trips right there has good control, the upper body likewise.

And bang, there it is.

Two point takedown.

Okay.

Top man made pretty easy.

Of course, when you get a national champion.

Oh, you should realize, too, that sometimes when they do move, they do make it look easy, but they are talented.

Santana is no exception.

He's a good one.

Also.

Come on, boy.

93.

93 is a score.

This is the one that Santana wants to ice to beat.

Iowa State has won seven against Iowa over the years, lost five last year.

We had that draw here at the Coliseum.

I don't think anybody here is ever going to forget.

Yes, I as we indicated earlier, why that it went to the heavyweights deciding the matchup in both the previous two meets.

Well, what they're to do here are you guys you take the chance to get one point a point for Santana puts him in double figures.

It's 10 to 3 for this team, leading 15 to 11.

That's an attempt on the part of Palmer.

But he overdraw his base, so to speak.

He didn't get in deep enough for anyone.

But hey, there's a good attempt at High Park.

It almost came up.

That almost kind of a yeah, kind of a pancake affair where he was up double armbar you make one of those work, you'd only get to usually end up with five or a fall.

You get the two point takedown, three point or two point NEARFALL.

Just a little reminder to Frank, not to get too careless.

What he's trying to do here is take the pressure off the heavyweights to just keep moving and moving out of the way.

He stays right after the end of the second period.

Those points give Santana a 12 to 3 lead.

And I think the people here in the Hilton here, the case right here know that Santana got that arm on hook.

He's going to go underneath it.

He's going to force that wizard out of there, which He did and came out into the two point takedown to Palmer there, wanted to put that Whizzer move in, but Santana didn't give him any hope of getting it in there at all.

The people here were up on their feet four at the end of that match.

I think they just suddenly really realized that if Santana can solve this one away, the heat's in four.

Iowa State.

I don't think there's too much question of it.

14,000 plus plus a few probably came in the back door.

Palmer's making a gallant effort here, and I think trying to put moves together indicate the fact he hasn't been stalling here.

But Santana is just a superior wrestler to 35 left in the match.

Santana has been on top for a minute and 29 seconds total and Palmer for 2 seconds.

Both these boys are real strong boys.

They both not only have strong and strong in the leg, but they've got strong upper body strength.

Let's go to a quick warning about a move too quick.

You've cautioned him and that's a visual as well as a verbal caution.

That's no point.

But remember that Iowa State wrestles Wisconsin on Monday night, a good stand up tourney and escape on the path of former Baltimore.

This guy Palmer is no slouch.

As we said earlier, he's a good one, £90 and he's proven that before.

Now.

Now here comes Spike is real again because Mark Santana says I can't hold him.

He's just he's wearing baby oil or something Palmer is coming into the stand up position now.

Notices up underneath that army twists out spins in there is the one point escape.

Well done.

Well, for Van Gamble.

Who knows that this one is slipping away from him.

Let's go through the upcoming matches again Monday night, remember 10:30 p.m. hour delay broadcast of Iowa State versus number four, Wisconsin on Thursday the 12th, two matches next week.

I asked you versus number five, Lehigh DeLay broadcast Saturday, the 21st Iowa State against number two.

Oklahoma State and Monday, January 30th, Iowa State versus the University of Minnesota ranked number 15.

We have a lot of Iowa state wrestling, some of the top teams in the country this month.

It was a good move on.

The part of Palmer went in for the double.

He had good position on it, too.

But boy, Santana was tough.

If he sprawled at a good base on him and countered real well.

But Palmer had a role.

Gafford in there did a nice job there.

He goes for a good single shot, did a nice job on him.

See?

Oh, nice, Nice move.

Palmer as well executed a good move takedown and try to put him up again 13 to 6 as the score a minute.

42.

Yes.

That was an escape there on the behalf of Santana.

Palmer had almost turning loose for that man in order to get some more points together in order to get back into this match.

Because again, now remember, a lot of Iowa State wrestlers over the years have liked to have all of that turned out badly for Santana, another two pointer.

He's tough.

That's certainly they have tried to have their opponents put a single leg on them and then counter from it.

Ben Peterson used to do that.

Mason used to do it.

I think Santana likes to, but Thomas nailed him twice.

Somer's not going to give him to here.

If anything, he'll give him one so he can make another another takedown attempt.

So he'll turn him loose for one, but not two.

There it is.

Okay.

Now for teenage.

You'll see Palmer coming back, shooting for another to begin.

Santana goes to show you, don't dare, don't dare let up.

45 seconds left.

There's a single by Santana.

He gets Let it go.

33 seconds left in this match 25 second chance as Santana looking at the clock.

If he wins, Iowa State wins.

And it's going to be a star warning against now against Santana.

Yeah that's that was the necessary call.

He hasn't done much here just in the last part of this period.

A point for Palmer, 14 to 9 up there.

Frank looks a little tired at this point.

He does, but maybe he feels he's got it in the bag and so he's trying.

Oh, here come the two border.

Another double leg on the as deep and it came to 11 with 4 seconds left.

I said in the earlier part of this matchup Palmer would give him all he could give him and he's just doing that.

He hasn't clear.

The Iowa State coaches are up saying, look out him.

And Frank says, don't worry, it's his hand.

Okay.

At this point, he's playing it pretty close.

He sure is there.

At the end of it, there was no riding time.

I think the score now is if that's correct, 15 to 11.

Santana wins and Iowa State wins serves the finger in the air.

Number one, says Frank Santana, 15 to 11, Frank Santana over.

But Palmer And now with the team score Iowa State 18 Iowa 11, Iowa State ahead to stay because there's only one match left and the most Iowa can get is six.

You can the crowd chant, We're number one.

There's a Harold Nichols talking things over to Frank Santana right now out here.

Frank is telling him, calm down, don't worry.

I was in control all the time.

It didn't appear that way with those last six points.

He's a good talker.

Oh, I'm sure he felt maybe he had it in in command, but sometimes that worked the other way.

Yes It does.

And here's Tom Wall up for Iowa State Junior 18 and five against an outstanding senior wrestler from Iowa, John Moseby.

Yes, you might add here that John Ball, both these boys are from Iowa, too.

Both blazers, former state high school champion Waterloo West High School and Tom Walton, of course, is from Clarion, Iowa.

Tom's Russell for Iowa State.

He got to know now Moseby would like to put Iowa out with a blaze of glory.

If even if they can't win as a team, putting down pretty tough there too.

But he's got those leads 200 for Walter, right?

Well, I'll tell you, I like it's nice to see two heavyweights out there who are in good shape and can move and go.

I think I think maybe bold B, be a little bit too tough for young Tom Walton here tonight.

But I'll tell you one thing, Tom's not going to quit on him.

He's going to keep moving all he can.

There it is right there.

At one point, his game calls.

He has a little size on ball and two other bulls.

B is not a huge heavyweight as some of these collegiate heavyweights run.

His body weighs what to 40.

I'd say that to 40.

I don't know what Tom Walton weighs, but he's not that big.

Maybe ten, 15 to 20.

Iowa State weighed in tonight this afternoon and introduced tonight to a second heavyweight.

It was Mike Stennis who hasn't wrestled at Iowa State.

He's been off the football, as you know.

Yes, but Mike was a former high school.

There's a good kind of a trip on the part of John Boultbee for the two going take down Mike stands or as you mentioned, the All-Big eight tackle for our state, where I was a former state high school heavyweight champion from Lake Mills, Iowa.

So he's been around wrestling before too, and maybe after he gets more seasoning under his belt and conditioning, maybe he'll help the cycling.

Yes, there was really no danger of his wrestling that I know he's only been out for week and it's pretty hard to get any kind of conditioning together and that sort of thing where there's something where the referee is cautioning both of you to do something with that.

If he's going to take that on, me better be using it.

And while they're saying don't encourage him, get all encouraged, it becomes a maneuver.

Right now here, if we watch real close on the first kind of a trip right there trip and he controlled the upper part of the body, is there really no particular name to that maneuver other than the fact he just controlled his body and took his base out from underneath him, took him down for 2.41 as a score and referee, says Bowles, We came up a little bit too quick.

Okay, man, get set second period and hold it right.

Break it down.

Whizzer by Bowles be in the stand up position.

Walden is locked in there on him.

And of course, that's perfectly legal in the standing position.

If they went down to the mat, he'd have to unlock the first out.

So it was 5 to 1.

Mosley had that whizzer in there pretty tough and Walter hadn't had much choice then to release.

And consequently both.

We had the one point escape.

Well, you can see that Iowa State felt they had to have it won by the time they got to the heavyweight match.

And I think everyone knew that that's what happened look at it, taking no credit away from young Tom Walden at all.

But he's not only lighter than Bovey, the boulder has a great deal more experience and his background is such that the Iowa State won by 1.4 balls.

B While staying away from it, says the referee.

Okay, well, he's guys Mark There you see Tom, all them are.

The last time Iowa won a match was at £142 when Scott Zino beat Randy Olson 16 to 13.

And at that time, it looked like a really big one for Iowa.

You notice right back here, there was an awful good double leg shot on behalf of Tom Walden.

But Moseley was able to counter it well enough, and I think he's countered a lot of that type of thing when he sprawls out there with his weight.

And of course, he's got good leverage.

Plus, he's talented.

He knows where to be at the right time off his ankle pick off a good ankle pick and trip 8 to 1 good two point takedown here.

Referees cautioning boldly to watch that knee because it's getting out there where it could be dangerous.

Just 8 to 1 with a minute, 35 left in the second period.

There's another good example, Doug, of worries got that near leg scissored and is controlling those hips pretty well now.

He's got off of it.

He's working up higher.

He wants to get some foul points.

Remember again Monday night work by the man at work if you're about to leave us early or something like that, we'll have Iowa State and Wisconsin on Monday at 1030, a delayed broadcast.

This is a big place.

You'll be watched twice.

Yes.

Get home.

You're not too far away and turn on that tube at 1030 and watch it again.

Don't twist it.

Referee's cautioning both B to watch that ankle back there.

He doesn't get any twisting on that ankle in that We have a little time right here a while to point out, Doug, that that's one of the real important task of a referee, is to point out to the contestants, as are competing out there, to here we come back here right now with a real good ankle pick on the part of BOULTBEE for the two point takedown that was well executed.

I was mentioning earlier that they've got to watch those potentially dangerous situations and always caution the wrestlers at all time because it's rather foolish to unnecessarily get someone hurt out there when it could be prevented.

Bulls b in behind is leading to what was an attempted switch there, kind of an attempted stand up switch on behalf of Walden.

But also they've got command of this match pretty much, and he's bearing down pretty tough on him with a lot of a lot of pressure, a lot of weight.

Thomas having a tough coming to his base, great people filing for the exits here.

Now he's got time.

He's got time into a half hour and a half.

But I'm sure he's going to pick up some four points here.

Wallin is in a difficult position trying to keep his elbow under to stay off his shoulders, but he is losing points here.

GOLDSBY He has no he has no time.

It looks like about a three pointer, I would think he got three, three, 3.11 to 1.

Is the score now going into the third period?

And Dan Gable, who knows that he hasn't quite men able to get the job done here, but he knows that he has plenty of chances left.

Well, to fall at this point for Iowa would make it what, 1817 team score, wasn't it at the end?

Yes, not quite enough, but sure, it makes it close.

We can go back to a lot of points.

Mike lands extra point as a caution too quick.

Shall we wait for the whistle?

Okay.

Get set.

Okay.

The referee caution the bottom.

Russell is moving too quick on the on the whistle.

This time to keep set until he gets the whistle on radio.

You can go back to a lot of points in this be something where they like land got that extra point major decision at 126 to something with within the is cautioning Bowlby at this point if you're going to stand up and stay in behind on end you've got to do something with him.

You can't just standing behind him by time and therefore boldly immediately responded and put him back to the man at the turning point could well have been the Helena Adams.

Very much so.

828.

Two very gifted young athletes at that way.

Now the referee stops it.

Both boys just on both boys.

This time they get 1.2 boys, 2.2 points, four goals made.

It costs okay.

The next violation is 2.1.

I have both boys were by I'll tell you when they're stalling that hard.

Both boys falling stalling that much.

It's harder to keep track of how many points are coming in a match these days.

But I think that the fans like it.

Okay Truck to crash eventually.

Both boys had previously been warned for stalling and that's why he penalized both at this point later.

Okay, let's go.

Well, you've got to do something.

You just can't both do nothing.

Let's go.

He's absolutely right.

He's going to wrestle aggressively.

Let's go.

Well, let's give him give some congratulations to his referee, Spike, as well.

I think he's handle this mean extremely well.

Right?

Well, he's making them wrestle and he's added some color.

He's done a nice job.

There's an escape there on behalf of Walden.

The score is now 12 to 2 in favor of John Bolton.

John, that's a real talent on his feet for a big man.

He's real tough on his feet with ankle picks, double singles.

He has a variety of attack on the face.

Credit to the threat of the boys at wrestle.

He just froze well in that position there and went around behind.

Now, Walden's head was down and he capitalized on it, spun around behind for the 214 to 2.

Now.

Now he's slipping and a half, pulling that arm up.

Walden's not wanting him to do same.

And of course, consequently he comes back to his base and it would appear at this point that boldly would like to score that fall.

And Walden, of course, would like to do anything but have that fall.

So he's kind of protecting himself underneath.

All right.

I would think maybe they're going to have to be a stalling warning here, coming pretty quick again, because I don't see much action down there in the bottom of a minute well, he's talking out of the wallet saying go, move.

And I think it's true.

He's apparently trying to get up on his feet this time he got to it was defensive stalling on behalf of Walden so he can't hold the two points.

Now the next one and he's out to disqualification.

That's right.

It wouldn't be as controversial or disqualified as we had last year, but it would be the same thing.

That's right.

We had a disqualification in the heavyweight match last year.

And of course, Boulder won that one by disqualification.

It wouldn't surprise me that we'd have won here.

Now, all in standing up, he got one.

Yeah.

Let's see what the score is.

63.

That was a case of him standing up boldly, more or less, giving him the one point escape from you.

One more violation.

You're out.

Yeah.

He's doing one more and you're out.

You've got to worry.

You got to wrestle.

One more year.

This one.

But the referee just told him one more stalling violation and he disqualified there.

He shot him for a double.

It looks like he's going to make it work.

He almost he's still locked in, however, his balls.

And he's tough, though.

He's got an uncanny balance.

He's strong and he's just an excellent wrestler that we're counting him out now.

6 seconds left in this meet, and I think we're going to survive the disqualification.

Oh, there was another ankle trip on the upper body, but, you know, he didn't get it focused on it for one good attempt.

Well, I think that the score up on the board is 19 to 3 and Bobby was definitely command.

So it's a five point decision of the career decision for John Ball's back at added up and that makes 16 for Iowa and it makes 18 for Iowa State.

Let's wrap this up here, David Hardy, and talk about this tape.

We started out at £118 with Larry McCurdy against Dan Glenn and Glenn of Iowa, handled McCarthy quite well, 8 to 5 as expected, I think.

I think so, definitely.

And then at 126, what turned out to be a big point was picked up by Mike LAMB, 12 to 4 over Randy Lewis.

Absolutely.

That was one of another key matches.

And at 134, Steve Hunt, 4 to 2 over Mark Warner as expected.

I think so.

And then at 142, one at the time looked like a key match.

Randy Nielson of Iowa State was defeated by Scott Trevino, who has improved tremendously in year 16 to 13, a big score that was a super match.

But Trevino just looked exceptionally good tonight, awfully fast at 150 Iowa State began the string that didn't end until this heavyweight match you just saw.

Zack Spann defeated Bruce Kenseth, 623.

Tough match, though.

Kelli Ward at 108 beat Mark Stevenson 10 to 6 and another tough and that and probably the big swing and we'll pick this as the pivotal match.

Charles Heller, a freshman, came back at the end to get a draw 8 to 8 with Mike Deanna, the outstanding young man from Iowa at 167 and Iowa took the lead 12 to 11 to stay.

Then Charlie Gibson, 10 to 4 over Stevens at 177.

And Santana put the icing on the cake with a 5211 defeat of Quad Palmer.

Although he tried to make some kind of a waltz out of it at the end and Palmer almost caught him 18 to 11.

Then Paul's be won the last one by a superior decision.

There you see Harold Nichols talking the press.

Russ Smith of the Waterloo Courier, one of the best known wrestling writers in the country and Iowa has come up to help Coliseum.

And Iowa State is the winner to 16.

There it is from Hilton Coliseum.

Dave Hardy, thanks so much.

Thanks a lot.

Everybody will be looking forward to the February meeting of these two.

Yeah, that's right.

And we're going to be looking forward to Monday night, Iowa State against Wisconsin, 1030 and 1030 on Thursday for Lehigh.

My name is Doug Brown.

Thank you for watching.
