And our last non-conference dual will be against the Hawkeyes.
125: Spencer Lee SO - Brands pulled the redshirt on a true freshman for the first time ever. This move paid dividends for the Hawkeyes as Lee went 22-2 and dominated his way to a National title notching victories over Alonzo Allen (Chattanooga), and Luke Welch (Purdue), Our very own Nick Piccinini, Nathan Tomasello (Ohio State) and Nick Suriano (Rutgers).
133: Austin Desanto SO - Desanto transferred from Drexel where he went 28-7 and 2-2 at Nationals and made it to the round of 12 with wins over John Muldoon (SIUE) and Jack Mueller (Virginia).
141: Max Murin RSFR - Murin went 15-3 last season in redshirt and had wins over 3 qualifiers in Colby Smith (Missouri), Mike Carr (Illinois), and Pat D'arcy (Princeton).
This more than likely means that Vince Turk is the odd man out.
149: Pat Lugo RSJR - Lugo went 6-2 last season in redshirt and had wins over Matt Kolodzik (Princeton) and Austin O'Connor (North Carolina). Lugo was a 2 time Nationals qualifier for Edinboro and made it to the round of 12 as a sophomore in 2017.
157: Kaleb Young RSSO - Young went 9-7 competing as a backup at 165 and 174. Although his record wasn't all that impressive he did wrestle a lot of good guys and he did have a win over Andrew Fogarty (North Dakota State).

184: Cash Wilcke RSJR - Wilcke has competed at 197 the past couple years and should move down to his natural weight of 184. Wilcke went 21-8 and has finished in the round of 12 the past two years. Wilcke had wins over Eric Schultz (Nebraska), Thomas Lane (Cal Poly), and Nathan Traxler (Stanford).
