2011 Iowa High School
State Wrestling Tournament
The Iowa state wrestling championships ran Wednesday through Saturday (Feb.15th – 19th) at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines.
Recap of the Tournament by Gary Lake of DesMoinesRegister.com
High school wrestling fans jammed Wells Fargo Arena Friday night for the state tournament finals in all three classes. The event was sold out for the 24th consecutive year.
The Class 3-A team title drama went down to the final match, when Cody Krumwiede posted a 10-0 major decision victory that sent Waverly-Shell Rock past Iowa City West. Waverly-Shell Rock, which has now won four consecutive championships, finished with 152 points to West’s 150.
Bettendorf was third at 148. Two of the three team titles were decided during the afternoon’s consolations — Logan-Magnolia in Class 1-A and Davenport Assumption in Class 2-A.

As far as storylines go, the UFC 117 bout between Ricardo Almeida and
Matt Hughes has plenty, and they all center on revenge.
Hughes defeated Almeida in a grappling match back in 2000. Ten years later, Hughes beat
Almeida's teacher, Renzo Gracie, at UFC 112 in April. Surely that must
get Almeida's blood boiling, right?
Not exactly.

Mark Greubel said Carlos Iraburo's knockout of Michael Kirkham at this past Saturday's
"Confrontation at the Convocation Center" wasn't unlike thousands of
fights he'd seen before.
Greubel, who trained Iraburo and was in his corner during the fight,
also said that the event, which took place at the USC Aiken Convocation
Center in Aiken, S.C., was well-managed by its promoters and athletic
commission officials.
"I didn't see anything out of the ordinary or that I could say was
suspect," Greubel today told MMAjunkie.com.
