BVU Wrestling BeaverCast

In 1989, Dave Jordan became Buena Vista's first NCAA Division III champion by topping Joe Dasti of Kean in the 118-pound finals. On Episode 26 of the BVU Wrestling BeaverCast, we'll visit with Jordan, who is currently the Vice President of Mortgage Lending at Community Choice Credit Union in Clive, Iowa. Jordan was under .500 his junior year in high school before a coaching change at Cedar Falls High School brought him the abilities of Dave Cunningham. The next year, Jordan won a state championship and found himself being sought after by colleges around the state and the region. He settled on Buena Vista because of someone else's trip to the gas station. Jordan has some stories to tell, and not tell, about his teammates from the era. It's an entertaining look back at Jordan's career. The BVU Wrestling BeaverCast is proudly sponsored by two-time All-American Monte Merz and High Country Search.
