Kevin Jackson is considered one of the best freestyle wrestlers in U.S. history, winning a gold medal at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain at 180.5 pounds, and claiming World Championship gold medals in both 1991 and 1995.

Kevin is one of only five U.S. wrestlers to claim three career World-level titles. In college, Kevin competed for both LSU and Iowa State University. From 1983 through 1985 Kevin was a three-time All-American at LSU. After his junior season, Louisiana State dropped their wrestling program and Kevin transferred to Iowa State for his final year of eligibility. At the 1987 NCAA tournament the Iowa State Wrestling star 167-pounder finished second to end his college career as a four-time All-American.

Kevin was inducted into our Glen Brand Wrestling Hall of Fame of Iowa in 2002.
