NEW YORK CITY -- Four University of Iowa wrestlers advanced to the semifinals of the 2016 NCAA Wrestling Championships on Friday afternoon at Madison Square Garden.
Thomas Gilman (125), Cory Clark (133), Brandon Sorensen (149), and Nathan Burak (197) each won their respective quarterfinals bouts, securing All-America honors and earning a berth in Friday night’s semifinals.
Gilman scored from start to finish to advance with a 16-5 major decision, his third bonus point victory of the season.
“What I do best is wearing guys out and getting to their legs,” said Gilman, who advanced to the semifinals for the second straight season.
