| Iowa wrestlers at Midlands Championships Iowa will compete at the 44th annual Midlands Championships Friday and Saturday in Evanston, IL. Hawkeye junior Mark Perry, who won the 165-pound title in 2004 and placed second at 174 last season, looks to lead the field at 165. His top challengers will be defending 165-pound champion Nick Baima of Northern Iowa, Iowa State's Travis Paulson and Eric Tannenbaum of Michigan. Perry defeated Baima (3-0) and Paulson (6-4 SV-1) earlier this season in dual competition. Several other Hawkeyes should also be in title contention. Junior Matt Fields, ranked fourth in the nation, may have to battle #2 Bode Ogunwolde of Harvard, #3 Dustin Fox of Northwestern and unattached Midlands veteran Brian Keck en route to the heavyweight title. Senior Mario Galanakis will have an opportunity to captialize on a wide-open field at 133, while junior Alex Tsirtsis (149), redshirt freshman Ryan Morningstar (157) and senior Eric Luedke (174) have legitimate shots at a title at their respective weights.
