The University of Iowa wrestling team held its final round of wrestle-offs Saturday morning at the Dan Gable Wrestling Complex in Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Sophomores Joe Slaton (133) and Phillip Keddy (184) collected pins in their matches, while sophomores Brent Metcalf (149) and Ryan Morningstar (157) tallied technical falls. Junior Charlie Falck (125) scored a major decision, while seniors Alex Tsirtsis (141), Mark Perry (165) and Matt Fields (Hwt.), and freshman Jordan Johnson (197) all recorded decisions.
