Day one of the 2017 AAU Scholastic Duals is in the books and Team Iowa Black is sitting at a perfect 4-0. Iowa defeated teams from North Carolina (Combat Athletics), Florida (Special Ops), Pennsylvania (Team Nawman) and Nebraska (Nebraska Silver) in Pool B competition. Going undefeated on the day for Team Iowa Black was McGwire Midkiff (126), Matt Robertson (132), Grant Stotts (145), Tanner Sloan (182), Joel Shapiro (195), Noah Broderson (220) and John McConkey (285).
When asked about his teams performance today coach Pete Bush said “We showed a lot of heart in that 31-28 match. Half the team went undefeated for the day. A good a start of the four day tournament. We need to be ready for tomorrow because it gets a little tougher. That’s why we’re here.”
Iowa will continue competition in Pool B tomorrow when it hits the mats for 4 more duals against teams from Cailfornia (Titan Mercury WC), South Carolina (843 Elite), Micigan (Michigan Gold ‘Pitbulls’) and Pennsylvania (Young Guns Black).
