2025 OL/DL Joey VanWetzinga Commits

Here is a “cool story bro.”

My son played on some really good USSSA teams from around Des Moines. He was probably about 9, and we were getting ready to roll a team from Bettendorf. About 4 innings in, we’re trying to figure out why we can’t hit off this damn fat kid on the mound!?!

That fat kid was Joey Van Wetzinga.

Cool story finished.

Looks like he converted that into muscle.
 
His dad Rusty was a heck of a football player in high school, at Augustana, and for the Steamwheelers.

Looks like his older brother is an incoming freshman FB for us too. Good football family.
 
So, here is the question, is he a DE or OL. Is he class of 26 or 25? The tweet says a lot.
