Nando

He's assistant coach, Fernando Villaescusa's son.
They lived in Arizona prior to Iowa, where Nando wrestled for Sunnyside HS. Same place as RBY, Ech, and some other great ones. He was a runner-up and champ in Arizona his frosh and soph seasons. Came to Iowa and got 3rd and 2nd his Jr. Sr. seasons. Lost to a couple of other DI commits, Mooberry and I can't remember the other.
Last season, as a Redshirt, he was unremarkable in opens, but he rolled with the likes of Coleman, Bastida, et al. and has clearly jumped levels over the course of the past year. Feels like he's adjusted to DI.
