Charles City native Lilly Luft is getting ready for her sophomore season wrestling for the University of Iowa.

The three-time state champion for the Comets says her adjustment from high school to collegiate wrestling had a lot to do with attitude.

Luft adds that one of her biggest lessons in her first season with the Hawkeyes is being open to bettering her wrestling craft.

Luft earned All-America honors her freshman season at Iowa and is ranked nationally in the Top Ten at 138 pounds heading into the new season. Still, she couldn’t imagine being among the clinicians who led a youth wrestling clinic in Mason City this past weekend.  That lineup included Kennedy Blades and Adam Coon, who both competed in the Paris Olympics, Olympic head coach Bill Zadick, and David Carr, two-time nationals champ and five-time All-American at Iowa State.

Luft and her Iowa Women’s Wrestling teammates open the ’24-25 season November 4th in Pennsylvania against East Stroudsburg University.
