The brackets for the 2023 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships were released Wednesday. Iowa duo of Spencer Lee and Real Woods were No. 1 seeds at 125 and 141, respectively. Iowa State’s David Carr and UNI’s Parker Keckeisen were top seeds at 165 and 184.
Iowa Wrestling Weekend That Was: David Carr became Iowa State’s second four-time Big 12 champion, while Northern Iowa’s Parker Keckeisen became the first Panther to win three Big 12 crowns. Plus, Spencer Lee wins Big Ten honors, more from the NCWWC in Cedar Rapids and Grand View wins again.
Iowa Wrestling Weekend That Was extended into Monday with UNI and Iowa State’s action at the Collegiate duals in New Orleans and important news from the IGHSAU and IWCOA.
Iowa State freshman wrestler Paniro Johnson boasts two top-six wins this season and hasn’t lost a collegiate match. That’s a heady start to the supremely confident 149-pounder’s career, but if you ask him, he’s simply meeting expectations ... and the best is yet to come.
Second-ranked Iowa and No. 7 Iowa State split all 10 matches, but Spencer Lee made his debut with a major decision, Real Woods also debuted with a win, Cobe Siebrecht and Nelson Brands added bonus points and heavyweight Tony Cassioppi capped the 18-15 dual victory.
