    Iowa wins 800th dual

    IOWA CITY, IA -- The University of Iowa wrestling team scored its 800th dual victory Thursday night with wins over Coe (50-0) and North Carolina State (38-9) in Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Iowa's overall dual meet record is now 800-209-30 (.785) in 95 seasons of competition. Iowa's win over Coe was the first time in over three years that the Hawkeyes had shut out an opponent and scored 50 points in a dual meet. The Hawkeyes improve to 5-0 on the season with the wins.

    Eight Iowa wrestlers went 2-0 on the night, and Iowa recorded six pins. Individual highlights included junior Mark Perry (165) scoring two first period pins, sophomore Charlie Falck (125) recording two technical falls and senior Mario Galanakis winning two major decisions.

    Iowa's next competition will be at the 44th annual Midlands Championships in Evanston, IL, December 29-30. All matches will be held at Welsh-Ryan Arena on the Northwestern University campus.
