by Gary Abbott, USA Wrestling
Next weekend is the last opportunity for high school boys and girls who are not state high school champions, National Prep champions or past NHSCA National placewinners to earn their spot in the respected National High School Recruiting Showcase final events.
These Recruiting Showcase Qualifiers will be held in North Logan, Utah (March 10-12), Temecula, Calif. (March 11-12), Kansas City, Mo. (March 11-12) and Milwaukee, Wis. (March 12-13).
The top six place winners in each weight class in the six qualifiers will earn a spot in the National High School Recruiting Showcase. These events are contested in the style in which athletes will compete in college, boys (folkstyle) and girls (freestyle).
The qualifiers are open only to boys and girls athletes who qualify for the USA Wrestling Junior age division. Wrestlers must have been born September 1, 2002 or after, plus must be enrolled in grades 9-12. Athletes from any state may enter any of the five qualifiers.
These will be excellent competitions, where athletes from around the nation will be tested by other motivated athletes. In addition, if you are able to place in the top six in your weight class in a qualifier, you qualify for the national competition.
The 2022 High School National Recruiting Showcase for boys will be held at the UNI-Dome on the campus of the University of Northern Iowa, April 1-2. This will be held alongside the annual USA Wrestling Folkstyle National Championships, serving as the elite division for high school boys.

The High School National Recruiting Showcase for girls will be held alongside the U.S. Senior Nationals for women, with their championship finals side-by-side on the raised platform at the South Point.
This event series is a great opportunity for wrestlers to be exposed to college coaches and recruiters. All of the competitions will be broadcast live on FloWrestling, and information on the athletes at the National Showcase will be shared with college programs.
