Iowa - both HWC and IWWC?

[1032004]

Putting this on the college forum because there are very few posts on the women’s forum, and since HWC wrestlers rarely wrestle internationally (kidding, kinda) it probably didn’t deserve to be on the international board.

I had noticed awhile back that a lot of Iowa’s women’s wrestlers when they wrestled in non-college events technically competed under the “Iowa Women’s Wrestling Club,” not HWC.

However I believe Kennedy Blades is part of HWC?  Is she the only woman on HWC?  And If they’re going to have Blades on HWC, why the separation at all?   Does this have to do with the Park Merry situation?

I think she wanted to be coached by the Brands

What male wrestlers are competing for HWC other than Lee?  It's 1 man band over there...

Maybe they feel they can't compete with Penn State?

I think right now it's him, DeSanto and Buchanan. Teemer and Parco I heard are sticking around and will compete when healthy. Definitely need to add more

Perry is trying to get his real estate license and coach MMA in Arizona.

Has Buchanan actually competed in a HWC singlet?  Desanto has but he’s not really a legit contender.

Kennedy is coached by Izzy Martinez.  He was in her corner in Paris and in Budapest this past weekend.
