Not all wrestlers need to have relaxed admission standards to enroll.

Basically, that's exactly what you implied about good ones.

Was he on it last year when he graduated?

No, but did he graduate last year? He wrestled at National Preps in 2022; I thought PGs were not eligible.

... But what? ... since we're all free to think what we want in the Utopian world of social media, the only nit picking going on here seems to be you bobbing & weaving trying to deny the fairly clear implication above.
Everybody knows about their use of academy prep schools in recent decades to improve recruiting in football and eventually other sports like wrestling. Navy used to be ahead of Army's curve in this regard - and both football programs tend to be miles ahead of other sports within the Patriot League.
So be it; whatever the academies can do in wrestling is a boost to the EIWA.
