Drexel transfer Austin DeSanto headed to Iowa

Drexel’s Austin DeSanto is headed to Iowa City.

On Sunday evening both FloWrestling and Andy Hamilton at Trackwrestling reported DeSanto was indeed transferring to the Hawkeyes. DeSanto, who projects as a 133 pounder and will have three years of eligibility left, described why to Hamilton.

“I thought about it for a while,” DeSanto said. “This whole week I thought about what I’m about and this opportunity and what I want to do with them and how hard they wrestle and how hard they train. That’s what I’m about. That’s what I want to become and I think they can get me to the point where I can become a national champ.
