Discussion Topic: NCWA All-Americans from Ohio Schools
Jeff Streu added to this discussion on March 16, 2022

I'm sure this will get lost in the shuffle of the NCAA discussions, but I wanted to put this out there as I have most years. The student-athletes and coaches in this league do it purely for the love of the sport, as there are no scholarships or coaches salaries and teams get very minimal financial support from the schools. There was no NCWA season in 2021, so all these wrestlers were eager to compete this year. In years past the NCWA website showed hometowns on each athlete's page, but for some reason this year it only shows high school, so I'm just going to list the ones from Ohio colleges. If anyone knows of any All-Americans from an out of state school who grew up in Ohio please let me know!

The Ohio State University Wrestling Club: 5th overall and 2nd in D2 (one individual tournament with two team scores)
-Parker Watson (Lutheran West), 3rd place, 149
-Yury Pozdneev (Orange), 5th place, 157
-Moustapha Bal (Fairfield), 6th place, 157
-Ben Blickle (Strongsville), 5th place, 165
-Zach Wolanin (Olmsted Falls), 7th place, 174
-Graham Carson (Miami Trace), 6th place, 184

University of Toledo: 14th overall, 9th in D1
-Serenity Thomas (Whitmer), 2nd place, 130 women's
-Zach Snyder (Anthony Wayne), 3rd place, 157
-Matthew Abraham (Padua), 3rd place, 197

University of Akron: 28th overall, 15th in D1
-Andrew Halko (Bishop Ready), 2nd place, 149
