UNI Wrestling Panther Pep Talk: Bryce Steiert Finds Healthy Balance at 165 Pounds

UNI WRESTLER BRYCE STEIERT WILL COMPETE IN HIS SECOND NCAA TOURNAMENT IN THE SAME PLACE FROM WHICH HE DREW INSPIRATION TO START WRESTLING. HE’S TAKEN PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID SOME OF THE INJURIES THAT ARE KEEPING SOME STUDENT-ATHLETES FROM COMPETING AT NATIONALS. STEIERT’S BROTHER WRESTLES FOR WARTBURG COLLEGE, A DIVISION III COLLEGE IN HIS HOMETOWN, WAVERLY, IOWA, AND HE HAS SEEN HOW THOSE INJURIES CAN AFFECT A COLLEGE CAREER. HE HAS SPENT A LOT OF TIME WATCHING AND TRAINING WITH HIS BROTHER, ANDREW. AFTER BEING RANKED AT 157 POUNDS, STEIERT MADE THE JUMP TO THE NEXT WEIGHT CLASS. HE WORKED HIS WAY BACK INTO THE RANKINGS AND EARNED A SEED FOR THE NCAA TOURNAMENT AT 165 POUNDS.
