IOWA CITY, IA - Former Hawkeye wrestlers Luke Eustice and Ty Eustice will be featured in one clue of the category "Sports Terms" Wednesday, March 21 on the TV game show JEOPARDY! Jimmy McGuire and Kelly Miyahara of the JEOPARDY! Clue Crew taped several clues at Carver-Hawkeye Arena featuring the Eustice brothers in August. Check your local listings for the channel and time JEOPARDY! airs.

The Eustice brothers are natives of Blue Earth, MN. Luke was an all-American and NCAA finalist at 125 pounds in 2002, lettering for the Hawkeyes from 2001-04. Ty was a two-time all-American at 149 pounds, competing in the NCAA finals in 2006. He lettered for the Hawkeyes from 2003-06. They are the 10th set of brothers to wrestle together in the Hawkeye varsity lineup since the 1950s.

Actually, a few months ago there was an entire wrestling catgegory on Jeopardy. It featured questions (okay, answers) about amateur wrestling, and several of them had demonstrations by Iowa wrestlers. The one they showed this week was probably a leftover that wasn't used the first time.

The Eustice brothers have been on Jeopardy more than Alex Trebek. It seems like this thread comes up about once a month.

And that's a good thing. Never hurts to put wrestling into "mainstream TV" now does it.

It's definitely good for the sport, as minor of a thing as it may be.
