MARQUEE MATCH-UPS There are six marquee match-ups based on the probable starters for this weekend's duals in Iowa City. The individual rankings listed below are the most recent from the NWCA/Intermat/NWCA poll. 141 - #1 Alex Tsirtsis vs. #3 Zach Tanelli Tanelli won the first career meeting between the two - a 10-3 decision in the championship final of the 2008 Midlands. Tsirtsis has been looking for a rematch. Tsirtsis held a 3-2 lead early in the third period of his match. He took a brief injury timeout after colliding with Tanelli during an offensive flurry. After the timeout, Tanelli scored a takedown, rolled off two three-point nearfalls and secured the riding time point to win 10-3. That match is Tsirtsis' only loss (16-1) of the season, and he brings a five-match winning streak to the dual. Tanelli is 16-3 and currently riding his own nine-match winning streak. 149 - #1 Brent Metcalf vs. #6 Kyle Ruschell Metcalf owned the first meeting between the two - a 14-5 major decision in the championship final of the 2008 Midlands.

HAWKEYES LOOK TO EXTEND WINNING STREAKS Iowa has won its last 29 duals, and its last 25 duals away from Iowa City. The school record for overall consecutive dual wins is 42 (1994-97), and for consecutive away dual wins is 31 (1994-97). The 25 straight away duals rank second best in school history. Hawkeye junior Brent Metcalf (149) also has a winning streak of his own, winning his last 52 bouts. LAST MEETING - IOWA 22, WISCONSIN 20 Top-ranked Iowa used bonus points to defeat #13/#15 Wisconsin, 22-20, Feb. 3 at Madison, WI. Each team won five matches, but the Hawkeyes used pins from sophomores Brent Metcalf (149) and Phillip Keddy (184) and a major decision by sophomore Jay Borschel (174) to win their ninth-straight dual.
