    Dana adds to recruiting class

    Blair, NE -- The 2006 NAIA National Champions, Dana College, inked four more star athletes to their incoming recruiting class. These four athletes will be added to the class of five that have already signed earlier in the season, bringing the Viking total to nine.

    Headlining the most recent signees is 4X Alabama state champion, Forrest Millsap. A standout wrestler for Homewood High School in Birmingham, AL, Millsap claimed four state titles and a Brute Nationals title in his four years at Homewood. Millsap is currently ranked No. 14 in the country by Wrestling USA magazine and is among Intermat's Top 150 recruits. Millsap will compete for the Vikings at 149 and will major in Art.

    Also making the trip to the Midwest from the south is Lumpkin County's Josh Ghobadpoor. Ghobadpoor was a four-time state finalist, placing 2nd, 1st, 2nd, and 2nd. Ghobadpoor is ranked Honorable Mention by Wrestling USA magazine and will compete for the Vikings at 174.

    Joining Millsap and Ghobadpoor are Jordan Davis and Clayton Wurtele. Davis was a state qualifier from Blaine, MN. Davis will compete at 174 and major in Pre-Med. Wurtele comes to Dana from local Nebraska City, NE where he was a state qualifier. Wurtele will major in Criminal Justice and sports a 4.0 G.P.A and will compete at either 141 or 149.

    These four young men join Donny Altman, Brian Graham, Eric Graham, John Schmalz, and Micah Laufenberg on Dana's incoming recruiting class. The Vikings claimed the No. 1 Non-Division I recruiting class in 2005 as ranked by Wrestling USA magazine.
