2014-15 INDIANA HOOSIERS
CLEVELAND STATE SERIES
Saturday marks the 13th time the Hoosiers and
Vikings will face each other in a dual meet.
Indiana and Cleveland State have split the
series 6-6. The first meeting occured in 1974
-- Cleveland State won 30-5. IU has dominated
the last three matches with a combined score
of 113-17 (44-4, 44-3, 25-10). The Hoosiers have
come away victorious in five of the last six and
six of the last eight. This is the first time the two
schools match up in Cleveland, Ohio since 1992.
NATIONALLY-RANKED HOOSIERS
As a team, Indiana is ranked 25th (InterMat).
Two Hoosiers are ranked amongst the country’s
elite this week (InterMat/WIN Magazine):
#4/6 Taylor Walsh (165 lbs)
#18/15 Nate Jackson (174 lbs)
PIN KING
Redshirt senior Taylor Walsh is continuting
his impressive pinning ways. After leading
the country last season with 26 pins, Walsh is
already well on his way with 13 pins this season.
That brings his career total ro 60, which is the
most in IU history.
With 110 career wins, Walsh needs four more to
break into the top-ten list in Indiana history. Tied
for ninth with 114 are Joe Dubuque (2002-06) and
Sam Komar (1975-78).
This season Walsh became Indiana’s all-time pin
leader. At the end of the 2013-14 season, Walsh
was tied with Viktor Sveda (1999-2002) with
47 pins. In his first bout of this season, Walsh
captured the record and is only expanding his
lead in the record books.
