Big Ten Championship

Iowa's getting ready for the Big Ten Wrestling Championship at Penn State starting tomorrow. The Finals will be televised on the Big Ten Network on Sunday at 1 p.m. (Don't forget to turn your clocks ahead for Daylight Savings Time...or you'll miss the big finals!)

Some of you may have heard the rumor that former 133 pounder Joe Slaton might be filling in for 157 pounder Matt Ballweg. I talked with DI wrestling beat reporter Ryan Young about this rumor - who informed me that it was all speculations. He asked Brands about bringing backups and Brands said "Those extra bodies are more for support role and warm-ups,” adding, “We know who our 10 guys are.”

So no Slaton there. But check back later for the brackets.
