some more accurate facts
keep in mind these are from just before his senior year in hs
Jerome Ward
St. Rita, Chicago
Projected college weight: 184
Background: Ward, the two time Asics All American is a physical specimin. Extremly strong and aggressive on the mat, Ward also plays fullback for the state ranked Mustangs. Still developing as a technical wrestler, Ward's raw talent continues to improve at a speed faster than any other wrestler in Illinois. A third place finish in freestyle this past summer at 189 pounds has mirrored Ward's fast rise to national elite wrestler. Ward has developed into a great shooter who can finish with a pin if need be. Ward's physical, brawling style is a fan favorite and his matches are always must see matches. Clinching his first state title with a 47 and 1 record, the future seems very bright for the states top 189 pounder.
What makes him a top recruit: Ward's ability to physically dominate a match makes it evident that he is a collegiate wrestler waiting on a coach to make him an offer. Ranked as the 19th best college prospect by Intermat, college coaches can find a future college All American waiting at 79th & Western in Chicago.
so he was a three time all american, and a 2 time state champ.
