The future is bright for Iowa wrestling.
This of course was never in doubt. Every year Iowa has a new pack of incoming youngsters ready to take the reigns from graduating All-American contenders. This year it’s no different, with a new generation of Hawkeyes competing tremendously at the U20 Junior men’s freestyle national championships. This weekend was a part of USA Wrestling’s U.S. Open events last week in Las Vegas.
Gabe Arnold grabbed all of the headlines, with his dominant performance at the 79-kilogram weight class. Though he was the big winner from this weekend, it was not just him at all. Multiple other Hawkeyes reached the finals and the podium, showcasing why Iowa will keep on being a force in Division I wrestling.
Here is a roundup of Iowa performances from this weekend at the U20 Junior men’s freestyle national championships.
