The Knights, increasing their dual record to 14-1, got the ball rolling at 133, as junior 133-pounder Jake Helvey of Mitchellville proved his No. 3 national ranking with a 14-2 major decision over Jered Kern. Sophomore 141-pounder Zach McKray of Iowa City, sophomore 157-pounder Aaron Wernimont of Pocahontas and senior heavyweight Blake Gillis of Spencer also registered major decisions. Senior 165-pounder Jason Knipp of Gilbertville continued to impress with a technical fall in seven minutes over the Pointers' Josh Ison to raise his record to 5-1, while freshman 149-pounder Adam Weber of Waterloo took Mo Malone to his back for a pin with just one second remaining in their match.
The Pointers, concluding an 0-2 day against IIAC competition after falling to No. 16-ranked Loras 21-19 earlier in Dubuque, received wins from 125-pounder Jake Calhoun and 197-pounder Tyler Wozniak.
The Orange and Black resume a brief three-dual home campaign against Central in IIAC action Wednesday, Jan. 24, at 7:30 p.m. at the Waverly-Shell Rock High School gym. UW-SP, with a 9-7 record, returns home for non-league action against UW-Parkside Wednesday.
