WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Purdue wrestling lost in its first Big Ten Conference action of the season to the No. 2 Iowa Hawkeyes on Sunday in Holloway Gymnasium, falling by a score of 37-6. Fifth-year senior Parker Filius and redshirt-senior Kendall Coleman were the lone Boilermakers to come away with wins on the afternoon.
No. 15 Filius (13-4) was the first to get points on the board for the Boilermakers at 141 with a comfortable 6-2 win over No. 17 (133) Cullan Schriever. Pushed to the edge of the mat, rather than go out, Filius broke Schriever's control over his leg and wrestled for a takedown of his own to score first. He would add another two in the first period and ride well in the third to take the decision in his return from injury.
Coming off his finals appearance at Southern Scuffle last weekend, Coleman (20-2) put another one in the win column at 157 pounds with a 3-2 decision over Caleb Rathjen. A straight power double-leg gave him a takedown in the first 20 seconds of the match, but it was a cagey affair the rest of the way with escapes accounting for the remainder of the points.
The Boilermakers (4-4, 0-1 B1G) were ready for the fight early, as redshirt sophomore Matt Ramos held an 8-2 lead over No. 1 Spencer Lee and redshirt freshman Dustin Norris got the first takedown against Brody Teske at 133, but both matches would flip in favor of the Hawkeyes. Head coach Tony Ersland was forced to forfeit the heavyweight match due to injuries to both 285-pounders on the roster.
Purdue will look to bounce back next weekend in a match just across the border in Champaign with Illinois on Saturday at 8:00 p.m. ET in the State Farm Center. The match will be streamed on B1G+.
