Peacocks disappointed
The Upper Iowa wrestling team was hoping for a little better showing at the NCAA II wrestling tournament it hosted this weekend at the U.S. Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids.
The Peacocks finished 14th with two all-Americans - fourth-place Travis Eggers and 157 and sixth place Tyler Mumbulo at 125.
Both wrestlers lost their final bouts Saturday and both vowed to return next year with higher goals.
UIU has some outstanding wrestlers and are worth a look by Eastern Iowa wrestling fans. Head coach Heath Grimm has done an excellent job with this program and he's got some great kids on the roster.
