Incoming Iowa Wrestling recruits will be on the mat this weekend.
Leo DeLuca will lead #2 nationally ranked Blair in a dual meet at #1 Wyoming Seminary tonight in the biggest high school dual meet of the year. #1 nationally ranked DeLuca will face #3 Nathan Desmond in a big match at 120. Desmond is a Penn State recruit. DeLuca and Desmond are in the Class of 2025.
On Saturday Blair will face Belmont Hill and Northfield Mount Hernon in dual meets at home.
Dru Ayala will be at the JHAWK at Cedar Rapids Jefferson on Saturday. Keyan Hernandez will be at the 65th Annual Cowboy Invitational in Miles City, MT on Friday and Saturday.
In Colorado on Saturday Jake Howell will be at the Jaguar Invitational in Littleton and Leister Bowling will be competing at the Pueblo Centennial Invitational.
I did not see where any of the incoming Iowa Women’s Wrestling recruits are competing this weekend.
