Updated 10:20 pm

From Register News Services • February 6, 2010

Vernal, Utah — Iowa senior Ryan Morningstar scored his 100th career victory and the top-ranked Hawkeyes posted their seventh shutout of the season Saturday night, blanking Utah Valley 38-0 at Uintah High School.

Morningstar took a 3-1 decision over Jeb Clark. He scored two nearfall points in the second period and an escape in the third to win his fifth-straight bout. He is 20-3.

The trip was a homecoming for Hawkeye senior 184-pounder Phillip Keddy, who was a two-time state champion at Uintah.


Iowa (19-0, 4-0 Big Ten Conference) extended its winning streak to 57 duals and 39 road duals with the win over Utah Valley (8-3, 2-1 WWC). Both streaks, as well as the seven shutouts, are school records.

Coach Tom Brands also picked up his 95th career victory as Iowa allowed only three takedowns.

Redshirt freshman Matt McDonough, ranked fourth in the nation, took a 7-4 decision at 125 pounds over No. 11 Ben Kjar to improve to 25-0.

Senior Daniel Dennis scored a takedown with three seconds left in his 133-pound match to score a 6-5 victory and collect his 60th career win.

At 141, Hawkeye sophomore Montell Marion scored Iowa's first team bonus points of the night with a 20-7 major decision over Jeff Newby. Marion scored seven takedowns in the last five minutes to improve to 16-3.

Senior Brent Metcalf scored his 14th pin of the season and the 45th of his career, sticking Justin Morrill in 1:43 at 149. Metcalf is 25-0 and ranks eighth on Iowa's all-time career pins list with Mark Reiland (1989-92).

Senior Jay Borschel kept his record of 24-0 perfect with an 8-2 decision at 174 for his 85th career win.
