    Northern Iowa wins 22nd straight NCAA West Regional

    Cedar Falls, IA -- The University of Northern Iowa welcomed six Division I programs to the McLeod Center for the 2007 NCAA Wrestling West Regional. After a two-hour delay, due to inclement weather the wrestlers came to the mat and UNI proved it had a right to win for the 22nd year in a row. Along with the team title, UNI took home three individual titles; Kyle Anson, 133, Moza Fay, 157 Nick Baima, 165.

    The Panthers rallied to take seven wrestlers to the finals, the most of all competing teams. Northern Colorado, like UNI, had three champions; Kenny Hashimoto, 141; Shawn Vincent, 184; and Reece Hopkin, 285. These wrestlers helped to propel Northern Colorado to second place. Coming in third was the University of Wyoming.

    Head coaches voted on the Most Outstanding Wrestler. UNI's Nick Baima and Kenny Hashimoto of UNC shared the honor. Also earning an award was Kenny Robertson from Eastern Illinois University for having the most falls in the shortest time.
