I thought going into the meet that Sibley would be favored at seven weights and I thought we could win seven matches. We did end up doing that. The key difference between the two teams' performance was they had three pins and a forfeit. You have to give credit to the Sibley kids there because they were wrestling hard all the time. I thought our guys worked hard for the pin too, but we just weren't able to get it as much as we needed.
More Quotes from Tom Stauch:
I couldn't really see what was going out there (in Collins' match) and that was unfortunate for us, too. Dustin was working hard for the pin and I believe he was called for an illegal headlock. If Dustin gets the pin we would have each had three. I don't know what the rest of the criteria are - there's a list of about 12 things you go down - but it's one of those things we'll never know now.Tom Stauch
I think they've already put it behind them. I don't think there will be any lingering effects. One thing about wrestling this time of year is you don't have a lot of time to reflect on things that happened in the past. I think they're focused now on what they need to do.

Everybody worked hard for it and we just came up a little short. The bottom line is our guys wrestled hard and did a good job, but Sibley wrestled hard also and came out on top.

It is an unfortunate ending because that was one of our goals - to try and get back to Cedar Rapids - but I don't think it's something the officials could overlook. It was a good call, but unfortunate for us.

I thought the guys wrestled real well. Everybody placed that we had out there. You really can't complain about a performance like that. The other teams just had a few more bodies.
