Waukon wrestling team participates in Luther’s Team Wrestling Camp ...

The Waukon High School wrestling team participated in the 2019 Luther College Team Wrestling Camp in Decorah. More than 800 wrestlers from eight-plus states attended the 2019 Luther College Wrestling Camps throughout July, making the series of camps some of the biggest camps in the country. Max Thomsen, All-American wrestler from the University of Northern Iowa, and Lee Fullhart, NCAA champion and four-time All-American from the University of Iowa, served as clinicians for Team Camp I.

Campers at the 2019 camps wrestled 10-plus matches and also participated in team building activities, and intensive “Train Like a Norseman” sessions. The camp closed with an individual tournament, where tournament champions who went undefeated throughout camp were given a ‘Luther Wrestling Camp Outstanding Wrestler’ singlet. Waukon wrestlers Jakob Regan and Lance Egan earned Wrestler of the Day honors after being nominated by Luther camp coach Preston Schuelke, who served as the Waukon Camp Coach, providing guidance and coaching for campers throughout camp giving campers quality feedback. The Waukon wrestling team is coached by Mason Berns and Caleb Ferring, and team members participating in this year’s Luther College Wrestling Camp are pictured above with Camp Coach Schuelke.
