Congrats Josh. Your a great role model for the young Bison wrestlers and so much fun to watch.
I can't wait to see Josh bring the first Big XII title to NDSU.
What a stud.
For those that don't know, Josh will be wrestling in Kiev, Ukraine this weekend at 57kg.
He has trained with the Nittany Lion Wrestling Club (although the USAWrestling press release has him representing NDSU, he is still listed on the NLWC site as a Resident Athlete), so I'm very eager to see the progress he has made.
I think he has enough speed and skill to succeed on the international level, the key is to get him to let it fly and not worry about getting scored on. Hopefully coaches McKnight and Sanderson have helped him get to a new level.
