    Wartburg defeats Luther

    Top-ranked Wartburg remained unbeaten and grabbed a slice of Iowa Conference dual history Friday, Jan. 20, with a 31-16 win over No. 3-ranked Luther in front of 1100 fans at Knights Gymnasium. The third-ranked Norse, despite dropping to 9-3-1 on the season, gave the home side all it could handle, winning by a major decision at 125 and a decision at 133 and 157 to tie the score at 10-10.

    Falls from senior 165-pounder Dustin Bliven of Columbus Junction, senior 184-pounder Akeem Carter of Waterloo and junior 197-pounder T.J. Miller of Cedar Falls gave the Knights their 100th consecutive league dual win in a row.

    Wartburg improved to 18-0 with the win. The Knights resume their dual season with a double-dual at UW-Stevens Pt. Saturday, Jan. 20, against the #22 ranked Pointers and UW-Oshkosh at 4 and 6 p.m. Luther returns to dual competition for the Iowa Conference duals section at Loras Saturday, Jan. 28.
