Sam Colbray is #6

6) Young prospect makes his move

When you win five Fargo titles during your high school career, there will be expectations as you head off to college. However, through an abbreviated redshirt season and much of his first season in the Iowa State lineup, Sam Colbray has struggled to find his rhythm. He was just 11-10 heading into the weekend. After outlasting Cordell Eaton (North Dakota State), 5-3 in sudden victory, on Friday night, Colbray faced a stiff test on the road at South Dakota State. The Jackrabbits feature 10th ranked Nate Rotert, a senior and three-time NCAA qualifier. After building a 5-3 lead as the two battled in the third-period, Colbray pancaked Rotert and got the fall. It was the biggest win of his career so far.

Many bright spots as of late that need to overshadow the distractions of the Storr transfer saga. 2018 already much better than last year with 3 duals and post season left to make even more gains! This team looks to peak in March and score some points at NCAAs. Next year could be very good!

125: Mackall looking like a productive point scorer at 125 next year!
133: Gomez looking solid and will be a stud next year!
141: Parker will be a beast here with another year to improve and grow even more into this weight.
149: Degan looking solid and fun to watch!
157: Straw improving rapidly!
165: Jennings could be productive while Carr redshirts and gets big!!
174: Coleman will be a stud here!
184: Bush gaining solid experience and should be productive.
197: Colbray starting to show promise!
Hvy: Harry really solid as of late!
