This waitin’ is for the birds. Not having wrestled against competition since December 10, the Central College wrestling team dropped six spots to No. 19 in the most recent National Wrestling Coaches Association Division III poll. The 7 – 0 Wartburg Knights remain the unanimous No. 1, while Coe has moved up to 12th, and Luther is a few rungs ahead of the Dutch at No. 17. Central still has two wrestlers ranked in the individual polls, while Wartburg has an astounding nine grapplers receiving recognition. The Dutch return to the mats this Saturday versus Ozarks and Davenport University in a triangular home meet starting at 4:00 p.m.
