Working itself back into winning ways, the No. 3 Iowa men’s wrestling program welcomes another nationally ranked Big Ten opponent to town this weekend. The Hawkeyes dropped to third in the NCAA Division I Coaches Poll with a 10-1 record and 375 points.

Another week comes with another major test for the #3 Iowa men’s wrestling team (10-1, 4-1 B1G). Such is life in the Big Ten Conference. There’s no rest for the weary (nor the sprightly). So, however the Hawkeyes are feeling following the highs and lows of last weekend’s East Coast road trip they’d better be ready to go again.

Iowa wrestler Gabe Arnold engages in some trash talk before the Hawkeyes visit Penn State for the biggest college wrestling match of the year.

Cael Sanderson’s top-ranked wrestling team made quick work of No. 2 Iowa last Friday night in State College, winning 30-8 before a sellout crowd. Obviously, PSU remains No. 1 in the updated InterMat team rankings.
