You have to like what they have done over in Virginia to rebound from last year's mass exodus. The line-up is filled with 3 freshman and 6 sophomores and they have some nice talent. I don't think they are going to threaten top 20 teams this year but they have a nice young team.

Yates beat Maldonado 6-1 and Dong beat Pami in the dual against Cal-Poly where V-Tech won 34-9.

novachkov did beat Diaz but he is a pretty solid top 20 wrestler...

Hey Gof....time sure does fly doesn't it. The "exodus" was almost three years ago - 2006.

LOL...yeah, I guess I was only thinking about the first year that the Hokeyes actually wrestled for Iowa but you are right, its been quite some time. That being said, they still recovered pretty quickly.
