Tyler Thomas '24 Recruiting Profile

As a wrestler I want to compete at the highest level I can. I have been wrestling for since i was 5 years old but i did take time off before i returned back to the mat 3 years ago. Some of my accomplishments are making NJ National Team, winning a NJ Freestyle/ Greco state championship. Also competing at Fargo Nationals and finishing one round shy from placing. I try to focusing on learning as much as I can before I focus on winning matches. I work out 5 days a week, I also train at Pennsylvania Regional Training Center. I travel to wrestle at as many different places as possible to get used to wrestling different people and styles. I work hard ever practice and when I'm not at practice I'm focusing on my school work keeping my grades up, staying out of trouble and getting all school work done before wrestling. I think my dedication and work ethic separates me and other athletes. Some of my short term goals are to places in New Jersey states as well as places at fargo. Also i wanna continue to help the younger wrestlers at my club learn different things and sharpening their skills. Giving back to the community means a lot to me because i was lucky of enough to have someone take me under there wing and show me the respect and values i should hold myself to on and off the mat, as well as in the classroom.
