Fifteen months into his collegiate wrestling career, redshirt freshman Mason Eaglin is starting to come into his own, while also bringing comparisons to one of the all-time great Blue Devil wrestlers, Conner Hartmann.
Eaglin and Hartmann share a hometown in Port Orchard, Wash., 13 miles west of West Seattle, and an alma mater in South Kitsap High School. Hartmann arrived at Duke in August of 2011 right on the heels of Eaglin's 11th birthday and with current head coach Glen Lanham serving in the assistant coach role.
