Congratulations to University of Iowa wrestling alumni Joe Williams. One of the greats of Illinois high school wrestling, saw Joe wrestle for Bill Weick at Mount Carmel High School (Chicago) many times. Joe also an alumnus of Harvey Twisters Wrestling Club, a south side iconic wrestling club. Joe's oldest brother Steve Williams, was certainly one of the very best high school wrestlers I have (ever) seen. Pure excitement; Joe learned much working-out and competing with Stevie. Congrats to Joe, a well earned and well deserved honor.

I was hearing rumors that his brother T.J. was being heavily recruited by Okie St. Him coming to Iowa was not a slam dunk. I also believe T.J. has the best winning percentage of any Hawk wrestler. In all, the two brothers won 5 titles for the Hawks.
