Big 12 Wrestling Championships

Saturday we went to Lincoln to see the Big 12 Wrestling Championships. We had a good time, but had to leave early since it was getting late, Allen had to work in the morning, and the weather was getting bad. Iowa State and Nebraska ended up as Co-Champions. We were in the Coliseum. A very cool atmosphere for wrestling. It's close and gets really loud. There were some pretty close matches. It was crazy because we saw a lot of high school wrestling coaches that we know. Allen was feeling like he needed a hospitality room like they do at high school meets just because there were so many of them there. The highlight of our day was getting to watch Iowa State's coach, Cael Sanderson. Unfortunately, we didn't get to meet him since we had to leave early. Hopefully we can go to the duel next year in Iowa. We cheer for IS as long as they aren't wrestling NU. Our Cael can now pick out the "Big Cael."

Go Cyclones! :) I ran into Cael once at Target when I lived in Ames. It took all my might to NOT point and stare! I agree that y'all should go watch at match at ISU. I loved going to wrestling meets there.
