Congrats to Teasdale & Verkleeren

Too bad Pa didn't go 3 for 3.

We haven't discussed Verkleeren much here. What weight does he project at in College? Any idea where we stand with him and interest level?

I know that Teasdale is a regular at Rec Hall.

Verkleeren just wrestled the entire season at 145. He's an incoming JR, and middleweights are really tough to project at least until their JR year is underway ... but guessing he'd be squarely in the 157-165-maybe 174 logjam we have going. Maybe 149 at a school that prioritizes cutting over growth.

Something to keep an eye on: older brother Derek is an in coming SR, wrestled 152 last year, projected 149/157 in college. Derek is not quite as good as Jarod and DNQ for states this year. But many schools will go after older brother for a better shot at the younger prize.
