IOWA CITY, Iowa - The top-ranked University of Iowa wrestling team defeated No. 13 Iowa State, 22-11, on Sunday in the annual Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series. The dual win was Iowa’s 21st straight overall and 17th straight against Iowa State.

The Hawkeyes won six-of-10 matches, earned major decisions at 141 and 165, and punctuated the dual with a stalling disqualification at 285.

“This is one date on the calendar,” said Iowa head coach Tom Brands. “This isn’t about a catalyst to springboard for greater things to come. This is a step along the path to Detroit. That’s how we operate. We’re going to Destin, Florida, two weeks from tonight. ”

Eierman totaled six takedowns and more than two-and-one-half minutes of riding time two win by 15-7 major decision at 141. Marinelli used seven takedowns and more than three minutes of riding time to win 16-5 at 165. Cassioppi built a 9-0 lead before forcing a fifth stall call and terminating the match.

The Hawkeyes also got decisions from Austin DeSanto at 133, Max Murin at 149 and Nelson Brands at 174. DeSanto registered one takedown and scored a pair of points off three stall calls win 6-4 at 133. Murin’s first-period takedown was the difference in a 3-2 win at 149, and Brands scored a takedown 19 seconds into overtime to win 3-1 at 174.

“Final score (22-11) with a disqualification stall call to end the dual meet. Lot of juice for the Hawks,” said Brands.
