    Big day for Fighting Illini: three top 100 Class of 2016 verbal commitments

    Three wrestlers verbally committed to the University of Illinois on Friday afternoon, all of whom are ranked among the top 100 overall in the Class of 2016. No. 74 Mike Carr (South Fayette, Pa.) was the first to announce his commitment. The two-time state placer won a state title this past season, and projects to compete at 141/149 in college.

    Next to commit was No. 46 Dylan Duncan (Montini Catholic, Ill.). The two-time state champion was a Junior National freestyle All-American last month in Fargo, after winning a Cadet National freestyle title the previous summer. Duncan projects to compete as a 133 pound wrestler in college.

    Last of the three commits is No. 61 Travis Piotrowski (Prairie Ridge, Ill.). The projected 125 pound wrestler has twice placed third at his state tournament, and is now a three-time Fargo All-American in freestyle. Last month he placed third at the Junior level in the 120 pound weight class, after a pair of All-American finishes at the Cadet level the previous two summers.
