Young just graduated from Wahlert Catholic High School in Dubuque, Iowa, where he transferred for his senior season. He wrestled for Belvidere North High School in Illinois as a sophomore and junior. Young capped his preps career with an Iowa Class 2A 165-pound state championship .

Even before Young’s addition, OSU’s 2024 class was ranked No. 10 in the country, according to FloWrestling. The class features top-100 prospects Cody Merrill and JJ McComas. The group also includes Rin Sakamoto, who will move from Tokyo to Stillwater to wrestle in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

The Cowboys have also added four from the transfer portal this offseason, including three multi-time All-Americans in Wyatt Hendrickson, Dean Hamiti and Cameron Amine.
