As many have mentioned we will add some preferred walk ons….we have a couple already and we just picked up another.

In an area of need at DL from Aurora we have 6’1” 270 pound Rocco Courtad.

The dude bench presses 455 and deadlifts 630.

Plus you gotta love the name…so now we will have a Rocco and a Gunnar on the sand team.

Tim Courtad (Rocco's dad) of course wrestled at Ohio lost to a fella by the name of Lesnar in the 2000 quarters.

I thought that name sounded familiar.

This Beau went to high school near Chillicothe.

Paint Valley to be exact. Could be a young man that works out. I am sure with his background, he will find Athens a better place for him than Marshall. Was a PWO at Marshall as well.
