Big weekend for Univ of Wisc Freshman TJ Ruschell

[KickEmOut 5]

University of Wisconsin Freshman TJ Ruschell who is in his red-shirt year had an impressive win over the weekend at the Flash Flanigan Open in Iowa.  He has moved up to 149lbs and placed 3rd losing only to the eventual champion Roger Wildmo from Michigan State.  In his 3rd place match he Majored Jarod Donar from the University of Minnesota.  Donar was a 4x HS State Champion in Wisconsin and went 189-0. He was also a 2x Fargo AA (2nd and 3rd), 3x Freestyle AA and Greco National Champion.  Big win in convincing fashion.  Props to TJ for repping the Bluegrass.

Big win!  Nice to major a kid with credentials like that.  Should be a huge confidence boost.  Great job!!!
