Vasquez wrote the following when announcing his commitment on Instagram Saturday night:
Enough time has passed, and I have finally made a decision that you all have been waiting patiently for! I am proud to announce that I will be officially continuing my academic and athletic career at ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY!!! I am looking forward to becoming a part of the Sun Devils, one of the best college wrestling teams on the West Coast.
I truly believe that Coach Zeke Jones wrestling program will align with the goals that I have in the college wrestling world, as well as academic and professional. I am humble to be staying in the West Coast, representing the side of the country I love the most, and the people that have supported me throughout my high school wrestling career. I want to give a huge shoutout to my family, all of the coaches, friends, and most importantly the Lord, for bringing me to this point in my life!
Just under two months ago, Vasquez became just the fourth wrestler to win four state titles in the single-class California state wrestling tournament. He also ended the 2019-20 season ranked second nationally at 145 pounds. He projects as a 149/157-pounder in college.
