Iowa got some fantastic news last night as Pennsylvania native Mike Kemerer announced that he would be continuing his career at Iowa:
The news was much needed for Iowa, who’s recruiting efforts have been relatively quiet since the addition of Cash Wilcke earlier this summer. Kemerer, who is ranked #10 by Earl at D1 College Wrestling, selected Iowa over Stanford, Cornell, and Lehigh.
Tony and I discussed Kemerer (and Joseph) at length when they were taking their official visit on Cross Face:
Kemerer comes to Iowa with a lot of national recognition as a multiple Fargo All-American and state finalist, as well as a member of the prestigious Young Guns Wrestling Club (the same very club that 2016 commit Kaleb Young is a part of). Coming in a top 10 recruit, Kemerer joins the likes of Mike Evans and Tony Ramos.
A few of Kemerer’s wins from Fargo:
First his win over Intermat’s #73 recruit (and Lehigh commit) Jordan Kutler
Two years ago he beat the gem in UNI’s 2014 recruiting class, Josh Alber
