Iowa wrapped up its regular season with a 24-0 record this weekend on the road against Indiana and Northwestern.
It wasn't a complete shut out against the Wildcats though.
After beating No. 3 Escobedo in Indiana Friday night, No. 5 Charlie Falck at 125 pounds, found himself on his back to Northwestern's No. 4 Brandon Precin.
Another disappointment from the Hawks' end came from 184-pounder Phil Keddy who wrestled No. 1 Jake Herbert. Apparently, it was a close match between the two - Keddy with just a one point deficit, 3-2. No videos have been posted thus far, however, the following is a video of Keddy and Herbert's match at the Midlands where Herbert dominated with a major decision 15-1. Clearly, this is an improvement for Keddy and he will likely be facing Herbert at Big Tens and NCAAs in the upcoming weeks. Keddy, who is ranked no. 3 has only lost against Herbert this season and holds a dual competition record of 23-1.
I'll keep an eye out for their match from yesterday. Until then, let me know what you think about Herbert's dominating style.

The difference between Sunday's match and the Midlands one is Keddy didn't get ridden like a bronco for more than 45 secs. Hence more action and a closer score
