    Iowa gets commitments from PA lightweights Lee, Teasdale

    A pair of wrestlers that ended the 2015-16 high school season ranked No. 1 in the nation at their weight class verbally committed to the University of Iowa on Wednesday afternoon. Spencer Lee (Franklin Regional, Pa.) is ranked No. 1 overall in the Class of 2017, and was the top-ranked 120-pound wrestler this past season. Gavin Teasdale (Jefferson Morgan, Pa.) is ranked No. 3 overall in the Class of 2018, and was the top-ranked 113-pound wrestler this past season.

    FloWrestling.com first reported the commitments.

    Both Lee and Teasdale are undefeated in their high school careers, Lee having won three state titles and Teasdale two. Each is projected as a 125/133 for their collegiate career.

    Lee is also a two-time Super 32 Challenge champion, a UWW world freestyle champion each of the previous two years at 50 kilograms (Cadet in 2014, Junior in 2015), and a two-time Walsh Jesuit Ironman champion. Teasdale has twice represented the United States at the UWW Cadet world championships after winning a Cadet freestyle national title, 42 kilograms in 2014 and 50 kilograms in 2015.

    At present, Iowa has three other verbal commitments from top 50 prospects in the 2017 class, while Teasdale is the first commit for 2018.
