This past weekend was the NCWA (National Collegiate Wrestling Association) National Championships in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The weather was great and Ohio boys represented well. Below is a list of All-Americans that attended high school in Ohio. If I missed anyone please let me know.
Akron:
Derrick Andolsek, Wellington, 8th, 174
Ohio State WC:
Caleb Hernandez, Napoleon, 8th, 133
Parker Watson, Lutheran West, 3rd, 141
Yury Podzneev, Orange, 7th, 165
Benjamin Blickle, Strongsville, 4th, 174
Graham Carson, Miami Trace, 5th, 184
Toledo:
Kaden Blair, Fairview, 1st, 133
Ezekiel Burkholder, Bath, 5th, 157
Matthew Abraham, Padua Franciscan, 3rd, 197
Jacob Meek, Clay, 3rd, 285
Bellarmine:
Devan Hendricks, Greeneview, 1st, 174
Thaddeus Huff, London, 2nd, 285
Clemson:
Kenneth Lambert, Strongsville, 7th, 141
Bellarmine had a total of 8 All-Americans - four of which were champs - but for the purposes of this thread I only listed the ones from Ohio. Bellarmine is currently transitioning to NCAA DI, and as such is not allowed to compete in the SoCon or NCAA tournament until they complete their transition, so they opted to compete in the NCWA post-season this season and next. Bellarmine won the NCWA team race, dethroning Liberty who had won the last three tournaments.
Toledo took 6th place, Ohio State Wrestling Club took 1st in Division 2 (one tournament, two teams scores) and 7th overall, and Akron took 34th.
