SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. -- Cal Poly has added a trio of wrestlers to the program's 2022-23 recruiting class as each has signed a National Letter of Intent to continue their academic and athletic careers as Mustangs.
Luke Meyer (285 pounds) of Capistrano Valley High School, Nathan Glass (220) of Fernley High School in Nevada and Cash Stewart (157 pounds) of Poynette High School and Madison College in Wisconsin join seven other wrestlers who signed NLIs in November.
Luke Meyer of Capistrano Valley High School.
Meyer is a three-time state meet qualifier who earned second-team All-Orange County honors last winter and has earned a 4.1 grade-point average.
During the 2021-22 season, Meyer placed first in the Cossarek Classic and Mann Classic and, as a sophomore, finished sixth in the Five Counties Invitational.
Meyer also played football for the Cougars as a defensive lineman, earning first-team All-Sea View League honors after making 120 career tackles (87 solo) with 18 for lost yardage, nine sacks, 30 quarterback hurries, two forced fumbles and a pass breakup.
He made 68 tackles as a sophomore with four sacks and 23 quarterback hurries.
Glass compiled a 30-5 record with 23 pins en route to a Nevada state title at 220 pounds as a senior. He also was 24-7 with 17 pins as a sophomore in 2020, placing fourth in the Northern Nevada finals and qualifying for the state meet. The 2020-21 wrestling season was canceled due to the pandemic.

Glass, who also wrestled for the Silver State Wrestling Academy, placed first in the Walter Marrietta Vaquero Classic and Cody Louk Invitational as a senior and was second in the state 3A state championships as a sophomore after earning runner-up finishes in the Walter Marrietta Vaquero Classic, Douglas Invitational and Lovelock Mustangs Invitational.
Stewart is a four-time state medalist, including a state title in 2020 as a sophomore at 120 pounds, his high school's first state champion. He also was fourth as a freshman at 113, third as a junior at 138 and second as a senior at 160, losing to the 21st four-time Wisconsin state champion.
Stewart compiled a 138-8 career prep mark, including a 39-3 mark as a freshman, 44-1 as a sophomore, 13-2 as a junior and 42-2 as a senior. His hometown is Arlington, Wisc., and Stewart has already earned his Associate of Arts degree from Madison College while completing his high school requirements.
He chose Cal Poly over Stanford and Wisconsin because "at the end of the day it came down to the environment in the room, the environment with the coaches and where I felt I was going to be able to succeed the most," he said. "That's just a sense I got from there and it helped my decision."
Stewart plans to major in mechanical engineering in Cal Poly's College of Engineering, ranked No. 8 out of 220 public and private undergraduate engineering schools without doctorates offered according to the 2021 U.S. News and World Report's "America's Best Colleges."
