Iowa recorded its 40th series win over Northern Iowa and its 20th win over the Panthers in Iowa City. Senior Mark Perry, who is ranked second at 165 pounds, pinned No. 3 Moza Fay in 48 seconds in the night's marquee matchup to pick up his 80th career victory. Perry also pinned Cornell's Christian Coffey in 4:17 to score his 30th career pin. He needs 10 more pins to break into Iowa's top 10 all-time career list. Sophomore Ryan Morningstar scored his 30th career win by pinning Panther Jarion Beets in sudden victory at 157 pounds.
Iowa's win over Cornell was the first time the Hawkeyes scored more than 50 points since the 2003-04 season when they defeated Southwest State, 54-0. Falck recorded his 45th career win with a 12-2 major decision over Cornell's Chris Heilman, who is ranked second in Division III. Fields scored his 70th career win with a 4:57 pin over Josiah Payne. Iowa's next competition will be Dec. 29-30 at the 45th annual Midlands Championships in Evanston, IL. All matches will be held at Welsh-Ryan Arena on the Northwestern University campus.
