Storm heavyweight Brett Christensen (Sr., Lenox, Iowa, Lenox H.S.), who is ranked fifth in the nation, pinned Lucas White 1:16 into the match to give Simpson a 12-8 lead. The Rams went ahead for good when Chris Heilman pinned Matt Koch (Fr., Indianola, Iowa, Indianola H.S.) 6:04 into the 125-pound match. Greg Murphy pinned Brooke Irlmeier (Fr., Exira, Iowa, Audubon H.S.) at 4:58 of the 133-pound match. Dave Parmski won by default at 141 with Aron Kindelsberger pinning Ben Hektoen (Fr., Birmingham, Iowa, Fairfield H.S.) at 4:50 of the 149-pound match.
The Storm won the final two matches of the night when Kellen Delaney (Jr., Kansas City, Mo., Park Hill H.S.) defeated Pat McAuley 6-5 at 157 and Bryan Llewellyn (Sr., St. Charles, Iowa, I-35 H.S.) defeated Drew Vickers 5-3 at 165.
Cornell's victory only marked the second time in the past 12 duals (since 1995) that the Rams have defeated the Storm. The Storm lead the all-time series 18-5.
