Huge get. Love to see it. The NJ connection is on fire.

Congrats to Sonny! Nice pickup for the Hawkeyes.

 

[Hawkeye89]

Great addition to start out the 2027 class!

I can understand why he did not thank his English and Grammar teacher. Seriously though, great get for you guys and he seems like a great kid. Congrats to TnT.

[pennstaterincarolina]

Seriously though, good pickup. What is his projected weight?

Nice pickup. How long until the first post asking if he can make 149? 141?

Depends on what weights Grothus and Slaton are at, respectively....

He wrestles at our local H.S., Rumson-Fair Haven. Iv'e had the pleasure of watching him in person the past two seasons. You guys are getting a very good one; really entertaining to watch. Congrats to all parties!!

Sonny won't be going to Super 32 it's nothing serious and he will be back on the mat soon. He would've been the #2 seed behind Bassett. They will both be at the Beast in December
