Andrew (A.J.) Meyers '17 Recruiting Profile

Wrestling has been my life style ever since I was five rolling around in the High School East room. On and off the mat I treat everything like a match whether its dieting, training, or tests.  Wrestling has taught me to work hard in everything I do and to always work smart and hard to be the best. 

Being who I am, I am generally an aggressive wrestler trying to outwork my opponent with slick moves, set ups, and fakes. come naturally to me because I have very good control over my hips and I'm also a creative wrestler and that goes for riding on top because of how close I can keep my hips to the other wrestler. This also helped me pick up free style quickly with the throws and rolls being my first free style match was in Indianapolis. Along with good hips, I am an explosive wrestler especially from bottom. 

My goal ever since I'd say middle school was to get a scholarship for wrestling and then a few years after that I realized the opportunity that wrestling presented me with. I could make a good living from getting a scholarship through wrestling and I am very interested in the field of business for all the opportunities out in the world for it. Wrestling has given me the mind set to be able to out work my opponent  and excel in school.
