MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – The No. 22 West Virginia University wrestling team fell to No. 13 Iowa State, 24-18, in its Big 12 Conference home opener at the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown on Wednesday night.
“I thought we wrestled pretty hard,” head coach Tim Flynn said. “You know, they’re a good team. I think going into the match maybe we were favored in one or two, and so we got a couple more than that. Let’s stay positive, but I think we could have done better.”
West Virginia (7-2, 1-2 Big 12) put up a strong fight against the Cyclones, winning five out of 10 matches, but was unable to pull off the upset.
The Mountaineers lost their first four matches to fall behind, 20-0. However, West Virginia quickly rallied with back-to-back wins to get on the board. WVU would go on to win five of the final six matches.
Fifth-year No. 3 Peyton Hall earned his 19th win of the season with a major decision over Aiden Riggins, 16-6. Redshirt sophomore No. 29 Brody Conley followed Hall with a major decision over MJ Gaitan, 14-2.
One of the highlights of the night was redshirt sophomore Ian Bush earning his sixth win of the year with a major decision over Nathan Schon, 13-2.
To finish the match, senior Jett Strickenberger pulled off the upset in the 125-pound match, defeating No. 14 Kysen Terukina by decision, 4-1.
