Ranked as the No. 23 overall recruit in the Class of 2017, Allar will be after a second straight state title to cap off his high school career this week. In the past off-season, he was a Junior National freestyle champion and a runner-up at the Super 32 Challenge.
Allar is currently ranked No. 4 nationally at 170 pounds, and projects to compete collegiately as a 165/174. Iowa State did receive a bit of positive news this weekend, as Austin Gomez (Glenbard North, Ill.), ranked No. 26 overall in the 2017 class, announced his intention to commit again to Iowa State; Gomez had asked for a release from his letter of intent after the resignation of Kevin Jackson earlier this month.
