My name is Troy Mercer and I'm a senior at Rockwall-Heath High School in Rockwall, Tx. I am interested in attending a College or University because I look forward to furthering my academics as well as the opportunity to be apart of a great wrestling program. I am charasmatic and a leader thats looking to be an addition in the wrestling room in persuite of becoming an All-American. I have alot of room to develop my skills because I started wrestling in the 8th grade and pushed myself to gain as much knowledge of wrestling as I could. I've been realitivley succesful in a short time by devoting alot of effort into wrestling by attending many camps, driving to other schools w/ quality wrestlers to train with and attending off-season competition.
