CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa– Augustana wrestling’s Jackson Rohman Finished second at the 2023 DII National Championships and earned All-America honors at 125 pounds. This is the second trip to the national tournament for Rohman and his first All-America honor.
Rohman reached the National Championship match with a win over No. 1 Cole Laya of West Liberty Saturday morning, 4-3.
In the championship match, Rohman wrestled hard on his feet in the first period, keeping the match scoreless.
In the second period, he started on top and Garcia earned the first point of the match with an escape. Rohman brought Garcia down to the mat to take a 2–1 lead, but an escape by Garcia would tie the match at 2–2 to end the second period.
