Hoos With Trophies?
Bellevue East's Garrett Grice can solidify his place as one of the greatest wrestlers in Nebraska history with a fourth state title.
He'll also be honoring the memory of his late father.
“He’ll be in the arena in a way."

Great read here on incoming @UVAWrestling recruit Garrett Grice who is trying to quad-peat in the state championship this week in Nebraska. The Omaha native already has three state titles coming into this week’s meet. He also shares the story of how his late father will be there in spirit cheering him on in this piece from the Omaha World-Herald. You can also check out this piece on Grice from Omaha’s ABC affiliate KETV. It is also in the Tweet below.

And this (below) from fellow @UVABaseball and Nats teammate Sean Doolittle.
From UVA to DC, Zim had such a huge impact on my career.
To the OG Nat Mr. Walkoff –
It was a privilege. Congratulations on an amazing career. I can’t wait to see what the Ryan Zimmerman statue at Nats Park looks like! pic.twitter.com/IZRO9AYGlG— Sean Doolittle (@whatwouldDOOdo) February 16, 2022
