    College Choices for Walsh Ironman Champions (2012-22)

    The 2023 Walsh Ironman began today and for over a decade now, it’s been considered the toughest in-season high school tournament in the nation. Since its inception in 1994, the Ironman’s alumni is a “who’s who” of great wrestlers. 

    On that note, we’ve decided to take a look at which schools have inked the most Ironman champions over the last 10 tournaments (2012-2022). 

    Below are past Ironman champions sorted out by the school they originally signed with out of high school. Though the 2022 tournament has been included, we did not list wrestlers that are still active in high school.
