Our guys are getting it done on the mat AND in the classroom!
This season our varsity team earned a 3.38 Team GPA and was recognized with the Iowa Wrestling Coaches and Officials Association (IWCOA) Team Academic All-State Award. Only 35 schools in the state achieved this honor!
Individually, Nick Milburn, Aiden Robson, and Lane Rozendaal were also recognized with Academic All-State honors.
Proud of these wrestlers for representing our program the right way—through hard work, discipline, and commitment in both academics and athletics. 📚🤼♂️

HUGE shoutout to our incredible coaching staff this season!
Year after year, these men pour countless hours into our wrestlers — investing in them not only as athletes, but as young men. Their commitment goes far beyond the mat. They teach discipline, toughness, accountability, and character that will last long after the final whistle.
They sacrifice evenings, weekends, and valuable time with their families to build meaningful relationships with our wrestlers and to help push our program forward. The impact they make can’t always be measured in wins and losses — it’s seen in the growth of the young men they mentor every single day.
We are beyond grateful for everything you do for our wrestling program.
And to the wives — thank you for holding down the fort at home and supporting the long hours and busy season so we can coach the sport we love. We couldn’t do it without you.
