St. Olaf College Head Wrestling Coach Sean Ahrar has announced his recruiting class for 2007-2008.
"I am extremely excited to work with these outstanding young men in the
upcoming season and throughout their wrestling career at St. Olaf
College," said Ahrar. "They are among the finest wrestlers in
Minnesota, Texas, Illinois, Connecticut, Colorado, and California. The
combination of these freshmen and ten veteran returners such as Collin
Pitts (two-time state runner up who redshirted last season), Dan
Rysavy, and Thomas Kopietz will make one of the toughest wrestling
teams in recent history of St. Olaf College Wrestling."
