IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

Iowa Wrestling SponsorshipsTwo of Iowa’s key sponsors are Cliff Keen Athletic and ASICS. The Hawkeye staff is proud and thankful to be associated with this two organizations, who provide the best in wrestling gear. Cliff Keen Athletic is a wrestling and offi cials wear company, dedicated to the advancement of athletics through innovative products and communications. Cliff Keen Athletic exemplifi es the rich traditions of sport and the superior quality of athletic wear required for holding up to the rigors of competition. The company was founded by the legendary University of Michigan wrestling coach of the same name in 1958. Keen coached the 1948 U.S. Olympic team and invented the wrestling head guard. In 1949, Mr. Kihachiro Onitsuka began his athletic footwear company (Onit-suka Co., Ltd.) by manufacturing basketball shoes out of his living room in Kobe, Japan. He chose the name ASICS for his company in 1977, based on a famous Latin phrase “Anima Sana In Corpore Sano”, which when translated expresses the ancient ideal of “A Sound Mind in a Sound Body.” Taking the acronym of this phrase, ASICS was founded on the belief that the best way to create a healthy and happy lifestyle is to promote total health and fi tness. ASICS® products were introduced to the United States in 1977.

IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP SEASONS

1975Iowa posted an undefeated dual season (17-0-1), set a school mark for wins and won its fi rst NCAA title. The team had a school-record fi ve All-Americans, na-tional champs in Chuck Yagla and Dan Holm, and four dual shutouts.

1976Iowa won its second straight NCAA title and captured 14 of 15 duals. A school-record three Hawkeyes (Brad Smith, Chuck Yagla and Chris Campbell) won NCAA titles. Yagla won his second straight title and was the meet’s Outstanding Wrestler. Iowa won the title by al-most 40 points and amassed a national record 123 1/4 points.

1978The Hawkeyes started their nine-year string of na-tional championships and were 15-1 in duals. Iowa’s one-half point margin of victory at the NCAA meet gave the Hawkeyes their third title in four years. This team was the fi rst in college history to win the national championship without an individual champion.

1979Coach Dan Gable’s fi rst undefeated and untied (19-0-0) team included NCAA champs Bruce Kinseth and Randy Lewis. Kinseth, who had a school-record 23 pins, was named Outstanding Wrestler at the NCAA Meet. He pinned all four opponents at Big Tens and all fi ve at nationals.

1980Iowa won its third straight national title with a school-re-cord eight all-Americans, including NCAA champions Randy Lewis (134) and Ed Banach (177). A 34-match dual winning streak was snapped by Cal-Poly, 27-12.

1981The winningest team (21-1) in Iowa annals boasted nine All-Americans and seven Big Ten champs. Broth-ers Ed and Lou Banach won NCAA titles. The 10-man lineup had an overall record of 302-45-2. Iowa won the NCAA title by 29 1/2 points.

1982Three NCAA champions – Barry Davis, Jim Zalesky and Pete Bush – paced the undefeated (16-0-1) na-tional titlists. Davis set the Iowa season mark for wins with 46. The Hawkeyes had eight All-Americans and piled up a record 131 3/4 points at the NCAAs.

1983Iowa set a Big Ten record with nine league champs, compiled a 17-1 dual record and won a sixth consecu-tive NCAA crown. Iowa had nine All-Americans, a tour-nament record. Ed Banach won his third NCAA title in four years. Carver-Hawkeye Arena opened its doors with a 35-7 victory over Oklahoma.

1984The Hawkeyes were 16-1 in duals and won both NCAA and Big Ten titles. Jim Zalesky, named Out-standing Wrestler at the NCAAs, posted his second straight undefeated campaign and closed his career with 89 straight wins. Five Hawkeyes made the na-tional championship match.

1985Gable’s second perfect season record (18-0-0) was accomplished with nine All-Americans and eight Big Ten champions. Davis, who won his third NCAA title, earned Outstanding Wrestler. For the second year in a row, fi ve Hawkeyes wrestled in NCAA title matches.

1986The Hawkeyes’ record-tying ninth straight national team title was a record-shattering performance. Iowa set all-time NCAA records for points scored (158), margin of victory (73.25) and national champs (fi ve)! Marty Kistler was the Hawkeyes’ third straight NCAA Outstanding Wrestler award winner. Six wrestlers won at least 30 matches. The ninth straight NCAA cham-pionship tied the all-time record for consecutive titles.

1991Iowa regained the national title that had eluded it since 1986, crowning nine All-Americans at the NCAA meet in Iowa City. Tom Brands (134) won his second straight title and was joined on the victory stand by Mark Reiland (167). Tom Brands ended the year with a perfect 45-0 record. Iowa’s team total of 157 was just one shy of the NCAA record, set by Iowa in 1986. The Hawkeyes won their 18th straight Big Ten title.

1992Gable’s third perfect season (16-0-0) was accom-plished by nine All-Americans, including NCAA champs Terry Brands, Tom Brands, and Troy Steiner. Tom Brands won his third consecutive NCAA title and was named Outstanding Wrestler. The Hawkeyes won their 19th straight Big Ten crown (6 champs) and second straight NCAA title. The Iowa-Iowa State dual meet (a 29-8 Iowa victory) drew an NCAA record 15,291 fans in Iowa City.

1993Iowa rebounded from a midseason slump to win a third straight NCAA title and 20th consecutive Big Ten title. The Hawkeyes fell from the top of the Amateur Wrestling News poll with a 24-20 loss to Nebraska at the National Duals in Lincoln, NE, in late January, but regrouped to go 8-0 down the stretch. Seven Hawk-eyes earned All-America honors, headlined by nation-al champs Lincoln McIlravy and Terry Steiner. Steiner was named Outstanding Wrestler at the NCAA Meet, and his brother Troy was selected Big Ten Athlete of the Year. Gable was named Big Ten Coach of the Year for the fi rst time.

1995The Hawkeyes won their 15th NCAA title and 22nd consecutive Big Ten title while posting an undefeated dual meet record (14-0). Nine Hawkeyes were named to the All-America team for the sixth time in school history. The All-Americans were Ray Brinzer, Mark Ironside, Jeff McGinness, Lincoln McIlravy, Mike Mena, Matt Nerem, Joel Sharratt, Daryl Weber and Bill Zadick.

1996Iowa fi nished its second consecutive dual meet sea-son undefeated, posting a 17-0 record. The Hawkeyes won their 23rd consecutive Big Ten title and their 16th national title. Gable was named Big Ten Co-Coach of the Year and sophomore Mark Ironside was selected Big Ten Wrestler of the Year. Seniors Daryl Weber and Bill Zadick and sophomore Joe Williams all won their fi rst NCAA titles. Seven Hawkeyes earned All-American honors, including Lee Fullhart, Ironside, Mike Mena, Mike Uker, Weber, Williams and Zadick.

1997The Hawkeyes scored an NCAA record 170 team points en route to their 17th national title in Dan Ga-ble’s fi nal season at Iowa head coach. Iowa crowned fi ve national champions (Jessie Whitmer, Mark Iron-side, Lincoln McIlravy, Joe Williams and Lee Fullhart), and eight All-Americans. McIlravy was named Out-standing Wrestler of the NCAA Championships. The Hawkeyes also won their 24th consecutive Big Ten title, and Ironside was named Big Ten Wrestler of the Year for the second consecutive year.

No team has dominated collegiate wrestling like the University of Iowa Hawkeyes since the mid 1970s. Iowa captured nine straight NCAA titles from 1978-86 and has won 23 of the last 41. During that span Iowa boasts 262 All-Americans and 69 individual champions. Following are summaries of Iowa’s 23 NCAA championship seasons.

ALL-TIME RESULTS

Head Coach Gary Kurdelmeier and Assistant Coach Dan Gable, both in their third years at Iowa, were optimistic at the beginning of the 1974-75 season, hoping to defend their Big Ten team title and post a winning dual season. The duo not only accomplished those goals, but added the fi rst NCAA team title in school history and the school’s ninth undefeated season (17-0-1) to their list of accomplishments. The Hawkeyes also set then-school records for most all-Americans (5) and most dual wins (17) in a season. Dan Holm and Chuck Yagla each won their fi rst NCAA individual title.

IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

Carver-Hawkeye Arena has been the home of Iowa wrestling since 1983. The facility is one of the fi nest of its kind in the world, and it seats 15,077 fans for a dual wrestling meet. The arena is named after the late Roy J. Carver, a long-time friend and contribu-tor to the University. Carver had a love for Iowa athletics and a lifelong affection for wrestling. Carver died in 1981 at the age of 71. Iowa’s basketball and volleyball squads also compete in the bowl-shaped arena. The multi-purpose building has also been the site of banquets, concerts, exhibition shows, and graduation ceremonies. Besides the main fl oor, where dual meets are staged, the arena boasts one of the best wrestling workout areas in the nation. The Dan Gable Wrestling Complex features three mats, a locker room, sauna, weight-lift-ing facilities, and retractable bleachers. The Board of Regents, State of Iowa approved the schematic design, project de-scription, budget, and fi nancing plan for a $47 million addition and revitalization of the arena that was completed in 2011. The Carver-Hawkeye Arena – Addition and Renovation Project added a practice facility immediately north of the arena for use by the Hawkeye men and women’s basketball and volleyball programs; renovation of the practice, fi tness and weight-training facilities utilized by the wrestling program; reno-vation and expansion of other fi tness and weight-training space in the arena utilized by the majority of Iowa’s 24 sports; the renovation and expansion of locker rooms in the facility; and the renovation of existing and the creation of new offi ce, meeting, and storage space for use by administrative and coaching staff of the Athletics Depart-ment. The project began in the fall of 2009 and the UI Department of Athletics moved back into the facility in July, 2011. The revitalization of the arena also extends into spaces used by the general public on game days and nights. This includes renovation of select concessions and rest-room facilities, and the creation of hospitality and meeting spaces. There are also club facilities for fans of the Hawkeyes who choose to participate in a variety of premium seating options similar to those available in the Paul W. Brechler Press Box at Kinnick Stadium. In 2016, a new four-sided centerhung video system was installed in the main arena. The video screen can display any combination of live video, instant replays, statistics, game information, animations and sponsorship messages.

The Dan Gable Wrestling Complex was a part of the $47 million revitalization and expansion of Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The complex features an extended training space, a new locker room, new coaches locker room, student-athlete video center, and a new offi ce suite.

The Hawkeyes have a .910 winning percentage at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Iowa’s 233-23 all-time mark in the building includes a record 11 home wins during the 2010 and 2015 seasons. The Hawkeyes have recorded 20 undefeated seasons in Carver-Hawkeye, with the most recent (9-0) occurring in 2012-13. The fi rst event held in the arena was a wrestling meet on January 3, 1983. Iowa beat Oklahoma 35-7. Iowa all-American Tim Riley won the fi rst match contested in the arena. On Dec. 6, 2008, Iowa set the then-NCAA wrestling dual meet attendance record when 15,955 fans saw the Hawkeyes defeat Iowa State, 20-15, in Carver-Hawkeye Arena. In all, the Hawkeyes have hosted several conference and national tournaments. Four Big Ten (1983, 1994, 2005, and 2016) and four NCAA Championships (1986, 1991, 1995 and 2001) were held in Carver-Hawkeye Arena, with Iowa winning the team title fi ve of the eight times. Carver-Hawkeye Arena also hosted the 2012 and 2016 U.S. Olympic trials, the annual N.W.C.A. All-Star Wrestling Classic in 1993 and 1996, and the Cliff Keen/N.W.C.A. National Duals in 1998 and 1999.

The Johnson County I-Club fi rst established a football scholarship in 2001 and then endowed a wrestling scholarship in 2009. Both scholar-ships are awarded annually to athletes from the Johnson County area.

Gary Kurdelmeier Wrestling ScholarshipThe Gary Kurdelmeier Wrestling Scholarship was established by Gary’s family and friends as a tribute to the highly successful UI wrestler, coach and administrator following his death in 1998. Kurdelmeier graduated from the UI in 1959 where he was a Big Ten Champion, NCAA Champion and team captain for the Hawkeyes. He served as UI assistant wrestling coach from 1967-72 and then head coach from 1973-76. During his tenure, the Hawkeyes won three Big Ten Championships, two NCAA team titles and Kurdelmeier was named national coach of the year in 1975. He also secured the future of Iowa wrestling when he and former UI Athletic Director, Bump Elliott, hired Dan Gable as an assistant coach.

William and Kay Pitlik Wrestling ScholarshipBill and Kay Pitlik of Cedar Rapids, IA, fi rst created an endowed scholarship in 1998 to show their love for the Hawkeyes. Both graduated from UI, Kay in 1952 and Bill in 1953. The Pitliks owned and operated Pepsi-Cola Bottling Company for many years in Cedar Rapids. Kay is an avid Hawkeye fan, and prior to Bill’s death in 2008, they also endowed scholarships to benefi t women’s basketball, fi eld hockey and football (2). Kay continues to support UI athletics very generously, in Bill’s honor, including a naming gift to the wrestling area in the newly renovated Carver Hawkeye Arena.

John and Dorothy Sill Wrestling ScholarshipThe John and Dorothy Sill Wrestling Scholarship was established in 1999 through a generous estate gift by the Sill family. John and Dorothy were both born and raised in small town Iowa. They were married in 1941 and managed a family farm until 1959. They later moved to Man-chester, IA, where he was the manager of the Delaware County Mutual Insurance Association and opened his own insurance agency. They were very active in the community and proud supporters of the West Delaware and University of Iowa athletic teams. John passed away in 1989. Dorothy followed in 1999.

Iowa Style Wrestling ScholarshipGary and Camille Seamans established the Iowa Style Wrestling Scholarship in 2001. It is a tribute to the aggressive, determined and dominat-ing style that Hawkeye wrestlers have exhibited under head coaches Gary Kurdelmeier, Dan Gable, Jim Zalesky and Tom Brands. An Iowa City native, Gary received his B.S. in electrical engineering from the UI and enjoyed a successful career in the telecommunications industry, retiring as chairman and CEO of Westell Technologies in 1998. Camille is a native of Dekalb, IL, and is now retired from her role as director of human resources for the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation of Chicago. Gary is a past recipient of the UI Alumni Association’s Distinguished Young Alumnus Award.

23 NCAA TITLES, 35 BIG TEN TITLES | 75

IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS GARY BARTA

A record-setting, perfect regular season, which included a Big Ten West Division title for the Hawkeye football team, set the tone for a successful 2015-16 for the University of Iowa Athletics Department, as Gary Barta completed his fi rst decade as the UI’s Director of Athletics. As Barta enters his 11th year as the leader of Hawkeye athletics, he does so with a fi ve-year contract extension and recognition as the 2015-16 Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year, presented by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). In the past year, Iowa athletics staff , coaches, and, most importantly, Hawkeye student-athletes, have continued to raise the bar in their daily approach to: Win. Graduate. Do it Right. There is tremendous momentum surrounding the entire athletics program in all three areas. The Hawkeye football team earned a spot in the Big Ten Conference Championship game after an undefeated regular season and made its sixth Rose Bowl appearance. The Iowa men’s and women’s basketball teams advanced to postseason play, and the Iowa wrestling program was once again in the thick of the battle for the national title. UI student-athletes continued to attack their work in the classroom—the “Graduate” leg of the Hawkeyes’ three-legged stool. All of Iowa’s 24 sports teams again exceeded the NCAA’s Annual Progress Report while holding steady their record, established a year ago, with a 89 percent Graduation Success Rate (GSR). The average grade point average for all student-athletes reached an impressive 3.0. The “Do it Right” column was fi lled with success as well. Under Barta’s leadership, the Hawkeyes continued their signifi cant service and contribution to the greater Iowa City area and beyond, taking a leadership position in matters related to student-athlete welfare. Iowa remains among the handful of intercollegiate athletics programs nationally that successfully maintains its status as 100 percent self-supporting. Iowa’s “Wins” also occurred at the turnstiles, where the Iowa wrestling program once again led the nation in home attendance. Iowa was one of just fi ve programs in the country to rank in the top 25 in home attendance for football, women’s basketball, and men’s basketball. When the Hawkeye baseball team reached the Big Ten Tournament championship game, more than 10,000 Hawkeye fans were in Omaha to cheer on the Hawkeyes on a Sunday afternoon. While the record-setting performance by the football team led the way in 2015-16, a number of other Hawkeye athletics teams also enjoyed outstanding success:

The 2016 Rose Bowl marked Iowa’s 13th postseason bowl game under the leadership of Kirk Ferentz and its ninth January bowl event. Junior defensive back Desmond King earned unanimous consensus All-America honors while winning the Jim Thorpe Trophy and was recognized as the Tatum Woodson Big Ten Defensive Back of the Year. He is Iowa’s 23rd consensus All-American. Fifteen Hawkeye players earned All-Big Ten recognition.

Lisa Bluder’s women’s basketball team advanced to postseason play for the ninth straight season while fi elding a very young team comprised mainly of underclassmen. Three Hawkeyes earned All-Big Ten honors, six earned Academic All-Big Ten recognition, and junior Ally Disterhoft garnered Academic All-America honors for the second straight year.

The Iowa men’s basketball team advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the third straight season, winning its opening game for the second consecutive year before a second round loss to the eventual national champion, Villanova. Coach Fran McCaff ery’s team was ranked as high as third in the nation while earning a second straight third-place fi nish in the Big Ten Conference. Two Hawkeyes earned All-Big Ten honors, including fi rst-team selection Jarod Uthoff .

Jarrod Uthoff (men’s basketball) and Ally Disterhoft (women’s basketball), were named Academic All-Americans of the Year for their respective sports. Iowa became the fi rst Division I program to claim both the male and female basketball recipients of the award in the same season. Uthoff is the fi rst Iowa men’s basketball student-athlete to earn both consensus All-America and Academic All-America honors.

Tom Brands’ Iowa wrestling squad fi nished second in the Big Ten and fi fth at the NCAA Championships. The Hawkeyes crowned two Big Ten individual champions, featured three NCAA fi nalists, and had six All-Americans. Iowa wrestling set a national dual meet attendance record as 42,287 were on hand to see the Hawkeyes hand top-ranked Oklahoma State an 18-16 defeat in Kinnick Stadium to open the season.

Iowa baseball made another late season charge under coach Rick Heller, reaching the Big Ten Tournament title game for the fi rst time since 2010. Only a one-run loss in the championship game kept the Hawkeyes from a second straight NCAA Regional appearance. Two Hawkeyes earned fi rst-team All-Big Ten honors and three players were selected in the 2016 Major League Baseball Draft, moving the three-year total to 11 under Heller—the most for the program since 1991-93.

Coach Megan Menzel’s women’s golf program was represented in the national tournament as senior Amy Ihm competed as an individual after earning fi rst-team All-Big Ten honors. Ihm became the fi rst UI women’s golfer to compete in NCAA postseason competition since 1990 and just the second in program history.

The UI’s men’s golf team, under the direction of second-year head coach Tyler Stith, competed in its eighth straight NCAA Tournament. The Hawkeyes placed second in the Big Ten Championships as three Hawkeyes—juniors Carson Schaake and Raymond Knoll, along with true freshman Matthew Walker—earned all-tournament recognition.

Larissa Libby’s GymHawks advanced to the NCAA Regionals for the seventh time in the last eight seasons, hosting the event in Carver-Hawkeye Arena in 2016. Iowa recorded dual meet wins over fi ve conference foes, including three Big Ten teams who were nationally ranked at the time.  Two Hawkeyes were named to the All-Championship team, with Mollie Drenth representing Iowa as an individual competitor at the NCAA Championships. Drenth, Iowa’s fi rst NCAA Championships qualifi er since 2011, placed third on beam at the NCAA Championship, earning fi rst-team All-America accolades. She is the program’s fi rst All-American since 2004.

JD Reive’s UI men’s gymnastics squad placed fi fth at the Big Ten Championships and saw Matt Loochtan garner fi rst-team All-Big Ten recognition.  The Hawkeyes fell short of making team fi nals at the NCAA Championships, but saw fi ve student-athletes advance to individual event fi nals. The youthful roster excelled in the classroom, tying a school record with nine Academic All-Big Ten selections. Senior Jack Boyle was also named a fi nalist for the Nissen-Emery Award, an award given to the country’s most outstanding senior gymnast in the gym and in the classroom.

IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

Joey Woody’s second season as head coach of the UI’s men’s and women’s track and fi eld teams resulted in a record number of performers advancing to the NCAA Outdoor Championships. A total of 15 Hawkeyes advanced to the national championships, including Big Ten champions Briana Guillory (200 meters), Aaron Mallett (110 meter hurdles), men’s 400-meter relay, and women’s 1,600-meter relay.

The Iowa men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams both tallied top-40 fi nishes at the NCAA Championships under head coach Marc Long. The program had two student-athletes—junior Emma Sougstad (100 breast) and senior Roman Trussov (100 breast, 200 breast)—garner three All-America distinctions. Ten student-athletes were named CSCAA Scholar All-Americans and 35 earned Academic All-Big Ten recognition.

Under third-year head coach Andrew Carter, the Iowa rowing program continued to make signifi cant strides forward. The Hawkeyes were represented in the top-20 national rankings for the fi rst time in six seasons. The squad placed fi fth in the Big Ten Championships with 95 points, its highest championship point total since 2009. Senior Beth Baustian earned second-team Pocock All-America accolades, becoming the fourth All-American in program history and the second in the last three seasons. The Hawkeyes excelled off the water with 20 Academic All-Big Ten selections, the most for the program since 2009, and fi ve Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association Scholar Athletes.

Under second-year head coach Bond Shymansky, the UI volleyball team compiled a 10-3 record in nonconference action—the best overall start for the program since 2006 (11-1). The Hawkeyes won eight straight matches from Sept. 6-19, including a 3-1 victory over Iowa State -- Iowa’s fi rst win over the Cyclones since 1997 -- and a 3-1 win over No. 25 Texas A&M.

In October 2015, the NCAA reported that Iowa’s student-athletes had tied the record set the previous year by posting a Graduation Success Rate (GSR) score of 89 percent. That mark ranked six points better than the national average. The NCAA also noted the UI had posted a federal graduation rate of 71 percent. This was also a record, three points better than the national average—and tops the three State of Iowa Board of Regents’ institutions. Last May, the NCAA reported that all 24 of Iowa’s sports programs were comfortably above the Academic Progress Rate (APR) threshold. The NCAA also singled out the UI’s volleyball, men’s golf, and women’s swimming and diving for APR scores that ranked in the top 10 percent of their peer group. These three teams have each registered a perfect score of 1,000 in each of the past four years. Along with Uthoff and Disterhoft earning Academic All-American of the Year accolades, the Hawkeyes also boasted Academic All-Americans in football (senior defensive back Jordan Lomax) and wrestling (senior Nathan Burak). In addition, 167 UI student-athletes earned Academic All-Big Ten recognitions throughout the year, and wrestler Alex Meyer earned academic recognition from the National Wrestling coaches Association (NWCA). “Doing it Right” for Barta and the more than 225 staff of the UI Athletics Department is a charge that encompasses a long and varied list of responsibilities, including maintaining the department’s status as one of a handful of intercollegiate athletics programs nationally that successfully operates its sports programs and auxiliary enterprises in a fi scally responsible manner and without any institutional or taxpayer fi nancial support. The UI provides a superior experience for the more than 650 talented student-athletes who participate in the program

annually and the more than one million friends and fans of the UI who attend Hawkeye events on the UI campus while being responsible and productive citizens of the greater Iowa City and University of Iowa community. In 2016-17, Barta will be responsible for an annual operating budget that will exceed $100 million for the fi rst time, with 100 percent of the revenue side of that budget generated by the UI Athletics Department. The majority of that revenue comes as a result of success in traditional revenue sources: income as a result of membership in the Big Ten Conference (including television), sales of tickets to athletic events on the UI campus, and donations to the National I-Club. The National I-Club donations has grown into a critical piece of the fi nancial pie managed by Barta, exemplifi ed by continued years of outright fundraising support exceeding $26 million annually. That philanthropic support has been critical to the long list of athletics facilities that have either been built or renovated during Barta’s fi rst 10 years on campus. That list includes:

Construction of the recently-completed $55 million Stew and LeNore Hansen Football Performance Center

$47 million revitalization of Carver-Hawkeye Arena Installation of a new video wall and video ribbon board at Kinnick

Stadium Installation of a new video scoreboard and playing surface at

Duane Banks Field Partnered in construction of a new indoor turf facility that

accommodates Olympic sports like baseball, softball, and soccer. Renovation of the practice space inside the UI Fieldhouse for the

men’s and women’s gymnastics teams Construction of the Hoak Family Golf Facility for the men’s and

women’s golf programs Turf replacement at Grant Field, the home of Iowa’s nationally

ranked fi eld hockey program Resurfacing of the Klotz Tennis Center courts Installation of artifi cial turf on the outdoor football practice fi elds,

matching the playing surface of Kinnick Stadium Center-hung videoboards in Carver-Hawkeye Arena, along with

new sound and lighting systems

Providing the resources for UI student-athletes and coaches to be successful is a priority for Barta and his senior management team. That process includes providing state-of-the-art facilities, which is why Barta continues to work closely with institutional leadership on the fi nalization of a comprehensive master plan for the facilities available to the Hawkeyes. Additional facility projects on the horizon include:

A north end zone project at Kinnick Stadium that will provide additional premium seating options and additional upgrades

Installation of a new banked track in the UI Recreation Building, home of UI indoor track programs

Renovations to the Gerdin Athletics Learning Center, home to the UI’s Athletic Student Services staff

Stadium upgrades to the baseball (Duane Banks Field) and softball (Bob Pearl Field) facilities

A new clubhouse at the UI’s Finkbine Golf Course Additional olympic sport improvements for soccer, gymnastics,

volleyball, and other teams.

IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS GARY BARTA

Iowa’s contributions to the greater Iowa City community go far beyond the multi-million dollars of economic impact generated as a result of the staging of hundreds of annual regular season, postseason, and special events annually. Barta and UI student-athletes, coaches, and staff are also active citizens, logging thousands of hours of community service and spearheading eff orts to support a wide variety of causes ranging from construction of the UI’s new Children’s Hospital, to the UI’s extremely successful Dance Marathon, to involvement with Coaches vs. Cancer. Iowa football has been involved with the Children’s Hospital “Kid Captain” program for 10 years. UI athletics teamed with the UI Alumni Association on the “Black and Gold Friday” outreach program; partnered with the College Football Playoff Foundation on “Extra Yard for (K-12) Teachers” program; and partnered with select colleges on the staging of the fi rst “Academic Day” as part of Homecoming in 2015. Iowa’s annual “Day of Caring” serves as the foundation upon which all these outreach activities rest. Now in its 21st year of existence, the Day of Caring happens each April and typically involves representatives of most, if not all, of Iowa’s sports programs who provide a wide variety of assistance to an equally-wide variety of not-for-profi t organizations that service the greater Iowa City community. “Doing it Right” also encompasses eff orts aimed at improving the student-athlete experience. The UI Athletics Department invested more than $1.7 million directly into food cost for its student-athletes in 2014-15 in response to NCAA legislation aimed at providing a higher quality student-athlete experience. That commitment will continue annually and is complemented by increases to the value of the scholarships awarded the UI’s student-athletes as part of the NCAA’s eff ort to fully address cost of attendance.Barta’s involvement in the UI campus and the greater Iowa City community extends beyond his position as Director of the UI’s Intercollegiate Athletics programs. He is a member of the President’s Cabinet, comprised of vice presidents and other campus leaders that provide counsel to the UI’s president. Barta represents the UI and the Hawkeyes at the conference and national level as a member of the Rose Bowl Management Committee. During his tenure, he has participated in the creation and implementation of the Big Ten Network (BTN), the expansion of the Big Ten Conference and realignment of athletics conferences. Barta remains active on the conference and NCAA level. He is involved in committee work with NCAA Football, the Division IA Athletic Directors Association, and is an ongoing participant in the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). Barta is also involved in a variety of community groups, including the United Way of Johnson and Washington Counties and the Partnership for Alcohol Safety, a joint eff ort between UI campus leaders and the city of Iowa City. Barta often suggests to his staff that “Hope is not a strategy,” which is why the Department has completed

a comprehensive review and rewriting of the strategic plan for the UI Athletics Department and continues to work with the UI’s leadership on a long-term fi nancial plan. As the Director of Athletics at the University of Wyoming for three years, seven diff erent Wyoming coaches were named Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year. He also spearheaded a fundraising eff ort that netted the Cowboy athletics program $11 million in private support and $11 million in matching state funds. As the senior associate athletics director at the University of Washington, he directed the “Campaign for the Student-Athlete,” was a participant in the design, construction and/or renovation of several Washington athletics facilities, including Bank of America Arena and the Dempsey Indoor Practice Facility. In addition to almost doubling the amount of annual private support received by Washington, Barta also managed the department’s external relations division, a task that included managing corporate sponsorship and radio contracts. His responsibilities at Washington expanded over time to include hiring coaching and administrative staff , and the day-to-day oversight of several Huskie sport teams. The roots of his development experience extend to his fi rst two positions: director of development at his alma mater, North Dakota State University, and director of athletics development and external relations at the University of Northern Iowa. Barta earned a bachelor of science degree in mass communication and broadcast journalism from North Dakota State in 1987. He was an option quarterback for Bison football squads that won the Division II NCAA National Championship in 1983, 1985, and 1986. Barta, and his wife, Connie, have a son, Luke (18), and a daughter, Madison (15). He was born Sept. 4, 1963, in Minneapolis.

IOWA WRESTLING2016-17 MEDIA GUIDE

School Fight SongThe Iowa Fight Song was written in 1950 by Mason City, Iowa, native Meredith Willson. Best known as the creator of Broadway’s “The Music Man,” Willson was awarded a 1963 University of Iowa Alumni Association Distinguished Service Award for “setting the spirit of Iowa to music.” The lively cheer is sung hundreds of times during Iowa athletics events the year around.

The word is Fight, Fight, Fight for IOWALet every loyal Iowan sing;

The word is Fight, Fight, Fight for IOWAUntil the walls and rafters ring (Go Hawks!)Come on and cheer, cheer, cheer for IOWA

Come on and cheer until you hear the fi nal gun.The word is Fight, Fight, Fight for IOWA

Until the game is won.

The Hawkeye NicknameThe University of Iowa borrowed its athletic nickname from the state of Iowa many years ago. The name Hawkeye was originally the name of the hero in the fi ctional novel, The Last of the Mohicans, written by James Fenimore Cooper. Cooper had the Delaware Indians bestow the name on a white scout who lived with them. In 1838, 12 years after the book was published, people in the territory of Iowa acquired the nickname, chiefl y through the efforts of Judge David Rorer of Burlington and James Edwards of Fort Madison. Edwards, editor of the Fort Madison Patriot, moved his paper to Burlington in 1843 and renamed it the Burlington Hawkeye. The two men continued their campaign to popularize the name, and territorial offi cials eventually gave it their formal approval.

Herky The HawkeyeThe Hawkeye nickname gained a tangible symbol in 1948 when a cartoon character, later to be named Herky the Hawkeye was hatched. The creator was Richard Spencer III, instructor of journalism at Iowa. The impish Hawk was an immediate hit and acquired a name through a statewide contest staged by the athletic department. John Franklin, a Belle Plaine alumnus, was the man who suggested Herky. Since his birth more than 65 years ago, Herky has symbolized Iowa athletics and epitomized university life. He even donned a military uniform during the Korean War and became the insig-nia of the 124th Fighter Squadron. During the mid-1950s, Herky came to life at a football game as the Iowa mascot. Since that time, Herky has been a familiar fi gure at Iowa athletics events.

School ColorsFor 40 years Iowa was without school colors, but in 1887 a group of 50 seniors met on the steps of the Old Capitol to decide what are now the school offi cial colors. They chose gold, the color of Iowa’s vast corn fi elds and black, the color of the rich soil.
