Incoming 'Cats Lead USA All-Star Team for Dapper Dan Wrestling Classic
Three
incoming members of the Northwestern wrestling class have been selected
to represent the USA All-Star Team at the 40th Dapper Dan Wrestling
Classic. Bryce Brill (Mt. Carmel, Ill.), Stevan Micic (Hanover Central,
Ind.) and Johnny Sebastian (Bergen Catholic, N.J,), all signed to
National Letters of Intent in November by Northwestern head coach Drew
Pariano, were chosen for the prestigious high school all-star meet.
With
three future Wildcats wrestlers on Team USA, Northwestern leads the
tournament with the most incoming recruits of any collegiate program.
Penn State and Stanford follow NU with two apiece. Brill (Illinois),
Micic (Indiana) and Sebastian (New Jersey) are all two-time high school
state champions. Brill (152 lbs.) and Sebastian (182 lbs.) are each
ranked No. 1 nationally in their respective weight classes by
Flowrestling. Brill and Micic (No. 2 at 126 lbs.) have each gone 136-5
in their high school careers, while Sebastian has posted a 110-16
record.
The trio will compete at the 40th Dapper Dan Wrestling
Classic on Sunday, March 16 at the Fitzgerald Field House on the campus
of the University of Pittsburgh.
The Dapper Dan Wrestling
Classic features the nation's best seniors on Team USA as they take on
