Originally TDR was set to broadcast a regular room show at UNI this
Saturday. Opportunity smiled and we now have the opportunity to present
a live video stream of the UNI Wrestle-offs from the West Gym in Cedar
Falls, Iowa. TDR starts at 9:06 AM CST for an hour pre-match show and
then will continue through the wrestle offs. You can listen and watch
by clicking on the live link on Takedownradio.com. That will take you

of the season event.
The University of Northern Iowa wrestling team will take to the mat for
the first time in the 2009-10 season, hosting its annual inter-squad
scrimmage. The wrestle-offs will begin Saturday, Oct. 31 at 10 a.m. in
the West Gym. The event is free and open to the public.
The Panthers are coming off a 22nd place finish at the 2009 NCAA
Championships after capturing their 24th –straight West Regional title.
The Panthers return seven national qualifiers including Trent
Washington and Christian Brantley. Both Washington and Brantley have
found themselves ranked in preseason polls with Amateur Wrestling News
ranking Washington No. 17 at the 141-pound slot and Brantley 11th in
the heavyweight class. Intermat ranks Washington at No. 15 and Brantley
at No. 12 for their respective weight classes.
UNI will open the regular season Nov. 14 at the Northwestern Duals
