The #11 UNI Panthers kickoff their dual meet season on Sunday November 24th at 1 pm in Cedar Falls Iowa, hosting #9 South Dakota State in what should be an fantastic dual. The dual features 13 ranked wrestlers and 6 ranked head to head bouts. The main attraction is a top 5 match at 184 lbs.
Don’t Miss: The 157 bout is a matchup of two former Iowa State Champions and both are nationally ranked. 184 is a top 5 matchup, anytime Keckeisen takes the mat its a must see attraction.
Keys To Victory: The Panthers are favored in 5 of the 10 bouts, while SD State is favored in 3, while 2 of the bouts remain a toss up. With a dual this close, bonus points are going to be huge. The Panthers have an opportunity for bonus points at 141 and 184. The swing bouts are must win for both teams.
