Nice win by the Jacks.

I think wrestling is a sport where SDSU could have alot of success in the future. Kind of an overlooked sport in the grand scheme of things.

Good post. Northern Iowa has had great success. We could actually get some big donations out of this sport. Frank Kurtenbach and Kirk Simet (Daktronics higher ups) were both great wrestlers under the late greate Warren Williamsen. Unfortunetely, the regulary fans like me don't support the program enough.

Unfortunately, I think we lost our 184-197 wrestler Tyler Sorenson last night to an apparent knee injury during his match. The wrestlers are good check them out this afternoon at 3 against Northern Colorado.
