Having a breakthrough National Champ like Mekhi was a huge step for the program. And the success both Mekhi and Ty have had on the National/International scene helps. But demonstrating that others are now building on that success shows that the program is working and can take good wrestlers to the next level internationally. Most of the best folkstyle wrestlers have those aspirations too, and we typically lost those recruiting battles before. Maybe that tide is turning.

And focusing specifically on Bryce, he is such an exciting, relentless wrestler to watch. His highlights alone are an amazing recruiting ad.
