With four individual champs, Team Iowa wins team title at Junior men’s freestyle national championships

The state of Iowa’s high-school wrestling renaissance has been building for a few years, with more and more in-state wrestlers competing and winning on the national scene.

They’ve done it individually, with national titles and age-level world-team berths. They’ve done it collectively, with two consecutive Junior freestyle national duals championships and a Junior Greco-Roman national duals crown, too.

This week, an assembly of Iowa’s top high-schoolers unveiled another masterclass performance, solidifying the state’s standing as the nation’s top destination for premiere prep wrestling.

Team Iowa eviscerated the field at the Junior men’s freestyle national championships inside North Dakota State’s FargoDome.
