Winning his first championship was sweet, but doing it 40 years after his father, Nate, won his first title at Iowa State made it even sweeter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Like Father, Like Son&#8230;<br><br>David Carr joins the ranks of his father, Nate Carr, as a National Champion at Iowa State! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ncaawrestling?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ncaawrestling<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Fe9VVQjR8c\">pic.twitter.com\/Fe9VVQjR8c<\/a><\/p>&mdash; NCAA Wrestling (@ncaawrestling) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ncaawrestling\/status\/1373432310377414656?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 21, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It&#8217;s been amazing,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ncaawrestling\/status\/1373431190166773763\">he said<\/a>. &#8220;I&#8217;m just happy to be father-son national champs. It sounds good.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nate Carr was a dominant force on the mat for the Cyclones, winning three NCAA championships between 1981 &#8211; 1983. He was also a bronze medalist at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, but the story doesn&#8217;t stop there. David&#8217;s uncle, Jimmy, made the U.S. Olympic team in 1972 at the age of just 17. And his older brother, Nate Carr Jr., is a former wrestler for the Cyclones and is now an assistant coach at Lock Haven University in Pennsylvania. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">David continues the family&#8217;s wrestling success. He won four state high school titles in Ohio and was a gold medalist at the 2019 Junior World Championships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wrestling is in this family&#8217;s blood. And it&#8217;s as deep rooted as their faith. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;All glory to God,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ncaawrestling\/status\/1373431190166773763\">said Carr<\/a>. &#8220;With Him, I couldn&#8217;t do this. I walk by faith, not by sight. Jesus got me through this whole tournament.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And he didn&#8217;t just get through the whole tournament.
