d1 All Americans for KY

Recommended Posts

I can confirm Barnes, Black, and Kyle Ruschell -- 2 time D1 AA and highest placer (so far) from Kentucky with a 3rd and a 4th place finish.  

Not sure about Grant... but I'm sure Barnes or someone out there can confirm!

You are correct!   I did a little Googling and found he was an All American in 1984 with an 8th place finish. Below is a paragraph from an article about his coaching and wrestling accomplishments on NIUHUSKIES.COM...

 

"In 1983 Grant transferred to the University of Northern Iowa from the University of Kentucky after the Wildcats dropped their program. He gained All-America status for the Panthers in 1984 with an impressive 32-11-1 record and an eighth-place showing at the NCAA Championships as a 158-pound competitor. He followed that successful campaign with a 20-4-1 mark at 167 pounds as a senior and completed his collegiate career with an 86-37-4 (.693) ledger."
