Anderson Becomes All-American

Anderson Becomes All-American

Plainsman wrestler, Justin Anderson, was selected as an All-American after the National Tournament in Council Bluffs, IA.  Anderson was no stranger to the tournament, as he would qualify last year as a freshman.  Last season, he did not finish the way he would have liked, so he was preparing himself to do better; in which he did.  His first match, Anderson would have a close one, but would ultimately win with a 9-7 decision.  He had put himself in a great position by getting on the winning side of the bracket right away, and would keep helping himself by getting another win in 9-7 fashion.  Anderson's luck would shortly end in his third match, as he would be pinned.  Not wanting his tournament to end in his next match, Anderson would dig deep and would pin his opponent, sending him into the placing rounds.  With that pin, the best he could do was place third, and the worst he could do was eighth.  His next two matches would not go the way he had hoped by losing in a 12-9 decision, then by being pinned.  Anderson would finish the tournament by placing eighth in the tournament.

Congratulations Justin on your accomplishments throughout your career as a Plainsman!
