TULSA, Okla. — Iowa sixth-year men’s wrestler Massoma Endene dominated on day one of the National Duals Invitational, picking up two ranked wins to help the Hawkeyes advance to the semifinals. In his first bout against No. 14-ranked Evan Bates of Missouri, the Wartburg transfer collected the Hawkeyes’ second pin of the dual.
Endene pinned Bates in two minutes and 20 seconds. Endene countered Bates’ attempt at a single leg, and rolled the Missouri redshirt fourth-year to his back to secure the fall.
