Fareway Stores, Inc. and Body Armor are proud to present the Inaugural Dan Gable Ms. Wrestler of the Year Awards in coordination with IAwrestle and IWCOA.
“This award has become a tradition in the state of Iowa and with the growth of girls wrestling it will be an honor to award them for their hard work.” said Jeff Stearns – VP Marketing & Advertising at Fareway Stores Inc
IAwrestle has nominated seven girls regardless of their year in school, weight and class to be in consideration for Ms. Wrestler of the Year.
Fans NOW have the ability to vote once per day for their top Mr. and Ms. wrestler until February 5th. (Top voted wrestler receives a nomination vote)
Another round of voting will take place to determine the three finalists. The fan votes will count as ONE vote towards the IAwrestle/IWCOA committee votes in EACH round. (The committee consists of four individuals with the fan nomination vote breaking any ties to determine winner)
All finalists will be invited to the season end luncheon gala in late February, where a winner will be announced for both Mr. and Ms. Wrestler of the Year.
The two runner-up student athletes will each receive finalist award plaques. A duplicate Wrestler of the Year trophy and duplicate Wrestler of the Year runner-up plaques will be provided to each high school where finalists attend, for permanent placement in the high school trophy case.
“The addition of this award couldn’t of came at a better time. Girls wrestling is thriving in Iowa and it’s time to start recognizing them on their achievements.” – Tony Hager – Co-Founder of IAwrestle.com
(Top 15 finalist candidates results for Mr. Wrestler. That vote brought in almost 80,000 votes and awarded Drake Ayala (Fort Dodge 3A), Andrew Flora (ADM, Adel 2A) and Gabe Pauley (AHSTW 1A) each an extra vote towards the committee vote to reach our top 7.)
VOTE ONCE EVERY 24 HOURS. WAIT A FULL 24 HOURS. (FOR EXAMPLE: YOU CAN’T VOTE TUESDAY AT 8PM AND THEN WEDNESDAY AT 8AM BECAUSE IT IS A NEW DAY. 24 HOURS MEANS 24 HOURS)

[…] Her opponent will be 120 pound IWCOA state champion Chloe Clemons of Cedar Rapids Jefferson. Clemons, a junior, has only been competing since seventh grade and has been a place winner at Flo Tulsa girls Nationals, Iowa/USA Girls State. This season she won every girls division tournament entered. Clemons is also up for the inaugural Ms. Dan Gable Wrestler of the Year Award. […]

Just wondering what was your criteria for putting the girls list together?
Tony Hager, thank you for finally fixing the problem. Note you stopped receiving complaints.
It’s not fixed people just got tired of complaining
Happening daily for myself and several members of my family and friends. It hasn’t let me vote for 6 days.
Do not try to vote within 24 hours either. It recognizes you attempting to try to vote as well.
Thanks
Tony Hager, what survey tool are you using?
Wow 5:30 in the morning and it says all already voted for the day. Really starting to get irritated with this polling. I guess it’s nice that some people get to put their vote in and this day 6 that I haven’t.
Why can’t I find the place to vote for Dan Gable for Wrestling Coach of the Year?
There is no fan vote for coaches.
Looks like nothing is being done! Very sad for the athletes – both the winners and losers. Whether you win or lose, it’s because the votes aren’t counting correctly.
We’re receiving lots of votes on all wrestlers. We have checked it every day from multiple devices and I’m being able to vote….after a FULL 24 hours of course. It’s not each day its every 24 hours.
On my 5th day with out being able to vote keep getting that I have already voted. And have waited the 24hrs between trying.
It is understood that some people are able to vote. However, others are not. It is also understood that you must wait 24 hours. People are telling you that they have not been able to vote for days. Have you checked with whoever developed the voting tool for you?
Another day and the same old crap! Still can’t vote! So unfair to these boys!!
Have tried to vote all day and all evening
and very time it has said I had already voted
From the first time this morning until now 9:15pm. Have totally given up. The sad part is it isnt fair to the 7 wrestlers that aren’t getting their votes.
Just tried using a family member’s phone to vote. Received the same message, “Thank you, we’ve already counted your vote.” The only thing is, hadn’t ever voted before from their phone.
How can you possibly continue with this poll if votes aren’t counted because people are unable to vote?
So tired of trying to vote and it keeps saying I’ve already voted when I haven’t. I’ve tried
Everything that has been mentioned and still cant vote. I hope others can vote for their wrestler cause I sure cant. This has been going on for the last 3 days.
There are a lot of people having the same problem. Sad that it isn’t being corrected.
Tony Hager, it is still not working. There are a group of us trying to vote and getting the same message that our vote was already counted. The problem is also not isolated to one wrestler because I voted for another one from my community in a different class. It allowed me to vote one day and the next time, gave me the message that I had already voted. It was well beyond 24 hours. Are you working on this or just ignoring the feedback you are receiving?
Is your group doing it from one location?
No we are in many different locations in state and out of state.
Who are you voting for exactly and I’ll try it on my end
It has nothing to do with who it is since some of the votes are being counted. Also, as I stated before, same thing happened when I voted for another athlete in a different class. It is a friend’s son so I wouldn’t want to be the one to post names on this site. It may embarrassing for the wrestler. If you want to post your email, I’d be happy to send you the names of both athletes.
Another day 24 hours later and still wont take my vote. This the 3rd day in a row! And yes I have waited the 24 hours in between and yes using the same device as I’ve always used. Irritated!!
try clearing your cache
Tried still didnt work. I’ll just keep trying but very irritating!
Same here!
Same here! Very frustrating,
Voted yesterday at 3:30 and its 24 hrs later and it says I’ve already voted. Something is not right.
I haven’t been able to vote since Thursday!
Says I have already voted and I haven’t. Please fix so that this is fair for the athletes!
Still not counting my vote! I wonder how the winners will feel if they find out this poll is totally bogus!!!
Totally agree!
What a scam !! Peoples vote do not mean any thing! In the 1st round the East Des Moines wrestler for 3A was neck in neck with the Fort Dodge kid. The two of them had over six thousand votes each. Next highest votes were around 2-3 thousand. Yet in the end the seven kids that were voted to move on were from the ELITE schools in 3A!! Those kids could have had no votes and still advanced. Why did you have people vote if the votes didn’t matter in the end.
READ and then comprehend it the paragraph in the original article.
Well here we go again. Have tried the past two days to vote and once again it has said I’ve already voted and I even waited twenty four hours in between.
Finally let me vote!
Same here. Had problems the first round and then all of a sudden it was working again. This round started off working and today it is saying I’ve already voted. It has been more than 24 hours. So unfair to these athletes.
Where are you voting from can I ask? Home or work? Public wifi somewhere? I’ve voted every day from different locations and haven’t had an issue from multiple devices too.
I am voting from home. Even tried using my spouse’s login on their phone and got the message that the vote had already been counted.
Login?
Accessed the website using my spouse’s phone. Just tried again and it still says my vote was already counted. So many others are having the same problem where it works and then it doesn’t.
