Penn State sophomore Tyler Kasak, the new No. 1 ranked wrestler at 157 pounds, was named Big Ten Wrestler of the Week for his performance in the top-ranked Nittany Lions’ 30-8 victory over No. 2 Iowa last Friday night at the Bryce Jordan Center.

The No. 2 Hawkeyes lost their fourth straight dual to No. 1 Penn State, which doesn’t sit well for the program or its supporters. The last time Iowa dropped more than three consecutive duals to the same Big Ten program was from 1963-68 when Michigan won six straight against the Hawkeyes.

There's no sugarcoating Iowa wrestling' s loss to No. 1 Penn State on Friday. The No. 2 Hawkeyes got walloped in a 30-8 loss on the road, dropping eight of 10 bouts. Coach Tom Brands didn't mince his words about his team's performance in State College, Pa.

STATE COLLEGE | No. 1 Penn State once again asserted its dominion over college wrestling, head-locking No. 2 Iowa 30-8 at the Bryce Jordan Center on Friday in a match that cemented the Nittany Lions atop the sport's hierarchy. Penn State wrestling won eight of 10 bouts, losing one with a missing starter, and dominated some of Iowa's top wrestlers.

Most Iowa wrestling fans knew their team was going to lose to Penn State Friday night. But when the No. 2 team in the country loses by 22 points— even if it is to the most dominant force in college sports— fans of that team are going to be mad.
