Concordia led No.1-ranked Augsburg after two matches, but then ran into eight straight Top 6-ranked wrestlers and lost 45-6. Ty Bisek picked up his 23rd win of the year when he posted a pin in the second period of his match at 133.
It wasn’t the outcome they wanted, but the Cobbers returned from the NWCA National Duals with a pair of wins and several quality individual performances. Concordia dropped its first two duals of the tournament, but responded by posting wins over Olivet (Mich.) and Aurora (Ill.).
It was an opening and a closing for the Cobbers in the middle of December. No.11-ranked Concordia opened its dual meet schedule and closed out the 2023 portion of its schedule by going 2-1 at the Prairie Wolf Duals hosted by Neb. Wesleyan.
All-American Ty Bisek and senior Gabe Zierden led Concordia across 8th street and helped the Cobbers return with a boatload of hardware from the MSU Moorhead Dragon Open.
Concordia moved up three spots in the latest NWCA Division III national rankings. The Cobbers opened the year ranked 18th in the NWCA poll, and through the strength of their early-season competition and results, have moved up to No.15 in the DIII rankings.
Gabe Zierden captured his second straight multi-team invite title as he led Concordia at the Augsburg Invite. Zierden was one of six Cobber wrestlers to post Top 8 finishes.
Ty Bisek, Gabe Zierden and Ayden Friese won weight class titles at the Haws/Elton 4-Team Rumble hosted by St. John’s and were a part of a group of 17 Cobbers who recorded Top 5 finishes.
