This is quite a list of additions today with eight new wrestlers. Please watch me closely on this one because with so many there is a high chance of error and I want to correct any errors. Here goes:

Evon Royal of Junction City High School will be wrestling next year at Dana College. Here is what one of his coaches Stand Up King had to say about Evon:

Evon Royal (4-time state qualifier, 3rd in 2009, state runner-up 2010) will be signing with Dana College today. Great Kid and I wish him the best!

I will let also let their own coaches great description announce these two following wrestlers.

Chance Davis of Clay Center Community High School verbally committed to DII Colorado School of Mines. Chance was a 3x state qualifier and 4th place finisher this past season. Great wrestler and student 3.9 GPA 33ACT score. I am very proud of Chance and I know that he has what it takes to be a very good college wrestler.

Please let me know if any of the above information is incorrect and needs to be changed or if any additions or deletions need to be made to the above list. On additions it helps if I receive a confirmation by posting or private message from the wrestler, a parent, high school coach or college coach. Also it helps if I can get any accomplishments like state championships, state placing or qualifying, league titles so I can make special mention of that in the announcement with the listing. A link to a newspaper article of the signing is also a good confirmation source. Thank you.
