CENTERVILLE - The Iowa Central wrestling team opened their ICCAC dual season here Wednesday night, falling to Indian Hills, 27-9.

Picking up wins for the Tritons were Lane Cowell, Nolan Miller-Johnston and Jesus Gutierrez.

Cowell, a Fort Dodge Senior High graduate, posted a 9-7 overtime win over Chris Busutil at 125 pounds. Busutil entered the night ranked third. 

Miller-Johnston topped Destin Jones at 157 pounds, 7-6, and Gutierrez bested Lais Cardero at 174 pounds, 7-4. 

Hayden Halter, Aidan Harris, Justice Hefley, Kody Cook, Aiden Carr, Trevion Sample and Kade Campbell suffered losses. Cook, also a former Dodger standout, was clipped at 165 pounds by seventh-ranked Cameron Nesbitt, 7-6. 

"It's still early," Iowa Central head coach Luke Moffitt said. "We've got some guys working their way into the lineup. The nice part about this schedule is we will get the chance to see Indian Hills later this season."

The Tritons head to Des Moines for the Grand View Open on Saturday.
