Clone Zone: Wrestling Preview

Don't miss this chance to watch a video with the legendary Cael Sanderson as he previews his team for the 2006-07 wrestling season. This exclusive six-minute video with the Olympic Gold Medalist and four-time National Champion is only found via the Clone Zone on Cyclones.com. Also included in this feature are interviews with All-American Kurt Backes and Cael's younger brother, Cyler.

Sanderson gives a weight-by-weight analysis of this year's squad, in addition to talking about Backes' adjustment to 197 lbs., and talks about the new changes to the atmosphere at Hilton Coliseum for wrestling. The first-year coach also takes a moment to reflect on the impact that the 2005 top-ranked recruiting class will have on this year's team as each individual spent their first season redshirting under the tutilage of Sanderson and former coach Bobby Douglas.

As of Oct. 19, 448 season tickets had been sold for the 2006-07 season. Sanderson wants to top last year's total of 511.

Iowa State will make it's Hilton Coliseum debut on Nov. 26 against Arizona State.
