A day after I praised Virginia Tech's recruiting two of the Hokies in-state rivals have made great additions. UVA got a commitment from NJ State Runner-UP Jonathan Becker, a Cadet Freestyle Champ. Becker is ranked the #41 overall recruit by Intermat.
Also in Virginia, Old Domion picked up a 2x NJ state placewinner Eric Dunnet. He also has placed this past summer at Fargo and NHSCA Jr's. Coincidentally, he lost in Fargo in the 5/6th place match to future teammate and fellow 09 recruit Justin LaValle of MN.
Finally, Illinois has a potential replacement for Patrick Bond at 197, Tony Dallago. Seeing this announcement on Intermat made me do a double take. Dallago is this years Chris Spangler/Jay Borschel/Mike Pucillo/Tommy Rowlands award winner. He plans on wrestling this season at 189 after 160 his junior season, 140 as a sophomore and 112 as a freshman. Tony has won wherever he's wrestled though, placing at PA AAA in each of his first three HS seasons, including a runner-up finish in 2007.
Each of these young men have been added to their teams recruiting page.
