"I'm really excited about the guys that are committed for next year," Sedivy said. "We've worked hard to make sure these young men fit the expectations we have of our wrestlers, and each of these student-athletes will make a positive impact on Dakota Wesleyan in the following years."
The Tigers were 7-5 last season and finished third in the Great Plains Athletic Conference.
