A surreal moment to win my second national title for The University of Iowa. Wrestling has given me so many opportunities and I am so fortunate to be part of this organization. Thank you to everyone that has helped me along this process. As always, go Hawks!
Back home! Weekend was a lot of fun with my brothers. Thank you everyone who congratulated me and hats off to Nick I told him at midlands if we ever wrestled we had to put on a show. And the Pokémon theme song is cause I love competitive Pokémon and I love that song! Go hawks!
I just want to take a moment to thank my team, coaches and family. I am truly honored to be the 2020 hodge recipient and represent my university. The 2020 Hawkeyes accomplished everything we could of. Right now we stay home, stay healthy and wait for March 2021.
It’s an honor to be selected a Hodge Trophy winner for a second time! Congrats to
@GSteveson
for winning as well! It is an honor to be a co-winner with you. Good luck in your future endeavors man!
I’ve been quiet this weekend but it’s been a tough weekend watching my teammates battle without me. This guy embodies everything we strive to be. Going to miss slapping your hand while you run out after me. If you think you aren’t going to miss him you are lying. Go Hawks.

The most impressive thing about
@yiannidiako_LGR
winning NCAA’s with a torn ACL is how poised and smart he wrestled preventing any further injury all while winning and wrestling as if he was healthy. What a freak, you said I was the man ha no you are the man.
This is one of the sports coolest traditions. As a fan and fellow wrestler this looks like one of the hardest things to do. Congrats on a great career Tony.

Iowa Hawkeye fans are awesome, I was at Carver to workout during Iowa WBB vs Wisconsin and I couldn’t even use my parking pass to get a spot it was so packed! At the Iowa vs Minnesota dual it was almost completely packed on a Monday in this weather. Nothing like being a Hawkeye

She did was what she had to do and my quote has absolutely nothing to do with her situation. I could have competed at the trials. But I also knew I could compete and win NCAAS and be healthy this is not something to be compared imo. She’s the 🐐, did what was best for her.
He gets a lot of flack for his emotions but I couldn’t ask for a better teammate and brother. And yes this quote literally embodies what Austin Desanto thinks about wrestling. Good luck this weekend Yianni!l
Coach Duroe was in my corner for my first two world titles and I remember hugging him after each win and how he helped me mentally prepare for every match. The time and effort he put into this sport, man wrestling was truly blessed with a man like Mike Duroe. Rest In Peace coach.
“Like Dan Gable said, When I shoot, I score. When you shoot, I score.” This can be applied to even as big of a stage as the NFL. Man this is awesome thank you

Dan Hodge played an instrumental part of my wrestling career. From my first big tournament to winning an award named after him in college. He will be breaking apples in a better place. Rest In Peace to a legend.
My heart is truly heavy about Eli Stickley. A young wrestler, competitor, and man died far too soon yesterday. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone that knew this incredible young man and everything he stood for. Rest In Peace Eli.
Wrestling is at a loss these last two days.
This would’ve been an even more historic year but what a year to be a Hawkeye and a Hawkeye fan! So proud to be a Hawkeye, we have so many incredible student-athletes on campus! Go Hawks baby!
When you are missing wrestling and the only thing you can do is mess with your family’s dog! 😂 Hope everyone is staying healthy and positive during these times
