Centerville, IA – No. 1 nationally ranked Indian Hills Men's Wrestling picked up nine victories on Wednesday night to roll past Iowa Lakes Community College in an Iowa Community College Athletic Conference (ICCAC) dual. The Warriors dropped the Lakers 47-5 on the night.

Eight of the nine victories for the Warriors came by way of bonus points, including four falls and three tech falls. Indian Hills moves to 9-0 overall on the year, including 7-0 in ICCAC action. The Warriors extend their program record winning streak to 23 consecutive matches.

Freshman Jayden Lee (Wayne, PA/Radnor) opened up the night with a dominant 16-1 tech fall at 125lbs for his first-career ICCAC dual win. Sophomore national qualifier Deontae Forest (Godfrey, IL/Alton) followed up with an impressive 18-2 tech fall at 133lbs.
