Mike McMullan Commits To Northwestern

October 21, 2009, 6:33pm
Mike McMullan, Wyoming Seminary's returning National Prep heavyweight champion has verbally committed to Northwestern University. Recognized as an InterMat Top 100 recruit, InterMat Wrestling 49 Pennsylvania Top 10 wrestler, and ranked among The Open Mat's top 2010 college prospects, McMullan is one of the most distinguished high school heavyweights in the nation.

In addition to his wrestling accomplishments McMullan is a decorated football player, lacrosse player, and honor roll student. The Wyoming Seminary College Prep senior reports that while the selection process was challenging, visiting Northwestern's Evanston, Illinois campus made the decision easy. The combination of Northwestern's academic profile, campus, coaching staff, and Big Ten affiliation caused him to quickly realize that it was the right place to pursue his goals over the course of the next five years.

"I really connected with Coach Cysewski and Coach Pariano. I am excited about their vision for the Northwestern wrestling and my opportunity to be a part of it. I look forward to working with them."

McMullan enters his senior season intent on defending his National Prep title and establishing himself as a premier heavyweight at the national level. He will have ample opportunity to do just that with a schedule that includes the ASICS Walsh Ironman, Beast of the East, Cheesehead Invitational, Blair Super Quad, and the National Prep Championships.
