Dylan Ness was named the Outstanding Wrestler, and his performance was certainly spectacular. However, on my ballot I voted for Taylor Moeder. The manner in which he dispatched his opponents was a marvel to behold, and definitely made him a legitimate candidate for the award.

Daniel Deshazer was a real warrior, battling injury but never using it as an excuse. The things that kept him from a national championship were small in nature, but when facing the caliber of opponents that come up here there is just no room for error. Still, Dapper should take considerable pride in the All-American status he earned while overcoming significant challenges.
