2023 NCAA Division III The Season: Cornell (IA)

 



With the addition of both Carter Happel and Matt McDonough to the coaching staff, it is inevitable that the future of Ram wrestling is bright.  With a guy like McDonough in the room in terms of not only wrestling skill & physical ability but more so mental toughness, we may even see an eventual resurgence of glory years of the late 1940's and early 1950's. I predict that we're onto the beginning of something that years from now we'll tradition. 

165 lbs
Casey Allen 

Not everyone in NCAA Division III wrestling is going to take an advantage of the extra season that COVID-19 provided, but Casey Allen is one of them. A two time Regional Place-Winner who has thus far been 7th & 4th, he will look for a third medal as well as his first qualification to the national tournament. 

197 lbs
Treyten Steffen 

Another wrestler I think we'll see some good things out of this season will be Treyten Steffen.  The junior went 26-21 last season with a 5th place finish at the Lower Midwest Regional. He simply needs to hone in on his strengths and skills while fixing his weaknesses.  The potential to make the W side much larger than the L side is quite good.
