Kai Atesalp '23 Recruiting Profile

I began training and competing in combat sports at the age of four. I started wrestling when I was 8 years old. I trained in judo, jujitsu, kendo and taekwondo, and have had a black belt since the age of 12. During that time I also started club wrestling for the junior league for my high school at the age of 8 and qualified for state championships 3 years in a row from 2013-2016. I transitioned from club wrestling to my current team when I started high school and by my sophomore year, I had fallen in love with the sport and have continued to progress placing in CIF and even going to masters. I received All League 2nd team in 2021 and 2023. The main goal I have is to keep improving in every way, and becoming an asset to my team and show that I am better than the person next to me. I am very competitive and want to show the world what I can do!
