After taking an official visit to North Dakota State, 2016 All-American Pat Downey is headed to Iowa City for an official visit to the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Downey has a year of eligibility remaining and is coming off a strong showing this spring in freestyle, notching a thrilling victory against two-time NCAA champion Gabe Dean at the U.S. Open in April.

The Junior Freestyle World silver medalist is a fit for Iowa at either 184 or 197lb. He has stated he's a natural 184 but placed at NCAAs at 197. If Downey has world or Olympic aspirations post-NCAA, the Hawkeye Wrestling Club could be an ideal spot for him to train full-time after college.
