I was informed this weekend by Will Cokeley that Ryne Cokeley is currently planning on taking a grayshirt year next season and wrestling for the Badger Wrestling Club.

Ryne Cokeley, wrestled all four years for Coach Mike Medina at St. James Academy. Ryne had a historic high school wrestling career. Ryne is one of our state's outstanding four time state champions. Very few wrestlers are part of this very exclusive club. Ryne won State Championships in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

Other Career achievements per the program from the March 8, 2011 Annual Missouri-Kansas Metro Classic Senior All Star Dual (it may be that some of the following should be updated for subsequent accomplishments). It should also be noted that Ryne won his match this year that the Metro Classic Senior Dual:
