TEAM NOTES

The Match-Up

The Gophers and Jackrabbits meet in a border battle between two great wrestling programs. The Gophers enter the dual 1-1 coming off of a loss to Oklahoma State after defeating Air Force 33-3 the previous week. The home Gophers have six ranked wrestlers in their lineup and are considered the 9th best dual team in the nation by Intermat.

The Jackrabbits are also coming off a loss to Oklahoma State in which the Jackrabbits won only one match, an injury default which awarded Henry Pohlmeyer the six team points. Defending national champion Seth Gross hasn't been fully healthy this season after winning one match in early November.

TEAM NOTES

Last Time Out

Last Sunday, November 18, the Gophers took on No. 2 Oklahoma State in the 40th matchup between the two programs. Oklahoma State jumped out to a 5-0 lead before No. 5 Mitch McKee, a Minnesota native, had a third period comeback victory to put the home team on the board. Tommy Thorn dropped the next match before No. 11 Steve Bleise had a last minute victory despite an injured hand.

The Cowboys rolled out of intermission with three major decisions, but No. 2 Gable Steveson helped the home crowd leave happy with a huge upset of No. 3 Derek White after a takedown and nearfall in the first minute of the match.

The Gophers fell 23-9, but it was their tightest margin against Oklahoma State since a 20-17 loss on November 29, 2015.

About the Jackrabbits

The star attraction for the Jackrabbits is No. 1 Seth Gross, an NCAA finalist in 2017 before taking home the individual title last season. He finished last year with only one loss. Gross has been a two-time All-American and two-time Big 12 conference champion at 133-pounds.

Gross pinned Arizona State's Josiah Kline on November 11 in his only match this season. Gross is an Apple Valley, Minnesota, native.

Their other ranked wrestler is Henry Pohlymeyer. Pohlmeyer was an NCAA qualifier last season and he won one match on the consolation side of the bracket. The Iowa native had a 137-31 high school record.

TEAM NOTES (cont.)

Welcoming back Damion

Jackrabbits coach Damion Hahn will be returning to Maturi Pavilion for the first time as a head coach after becoming a Gophers wrestling legend during his four years at the university. Hahn was a four-time All-American and a three-time Big 10 individual champion as the Gophers won team national titles during his first two years on campus.

Minnesota coach Brandon Eggum was an assistant on the Gopher staff when Hahn was a student-athlete.

In 2004, Hahn was named Jesse Owens Big 10 Male Athlete of Year. Hahn was inducted to the school Hall of Fame in 2018.

Up Next

Next up the Gophers head to Las Vegas for the Cliff Keen Invitational before heading even further out west to take on Fresno State in California the following weekend.

The Gophers begin Big Ten competition on January 6 against Rutgers at home.
