Not sure how they can include Walt Gillmor in that list considering he hasn't been on the team since before Christmas... But, impressive none-the-less

The list would be based on grades at the end of the fall semester. Presumably at the end of the fall semester he was still on the roster? I don't know, but that would be my guess.

Congrats to these wrestlers has to be a tough job with all the travel and work outs plus cutting weight.

Big congratulations to all these guys. Anybody who can wrestle D1 while carrying good grades is likely to be successful in whatever they pursue in life.

(Looking forward to seeing Alex Meyer next year, too!)

Exactly, well done to all of these young men!!

Best part, most of these are in difficult fields of study. No basket weaving here, must be why we can't get all the top recruits too tough of practices and too high of educational expectations.......

Congrats to all of these young men. Very proud of all of them.

Just a minor correction that everyone probably realizes -- Klapprodt is from SD.

 

[Fan In Black]

Very impressive. Congrats to all of these young men.
