    Kjar headed to Utah Valley State

    OREM, Utah -- Utah Valley State wrestling coach Greg Williams announced that Ben Kjar of Viewmont High School has signed a national letter of intent to wrestle at Utah Valley State.

    Kjar comes to Utah Valley with solid wrestling credentials. At Viewmont he was a three-time state champion. In 2002 he was the National Junior Freestyle, Greco-Roman and Folkstyle champion. He was also a two-time FILA Espoir National Champion in 2003. That same year he was third in the Greco-Roman and Freestyle University National Championships.

    "This is huge for our program," Williams said. "Ben is the type of kid that will make an immediate impact for our whole program. He has high expectations for himself and he cares about everybody around him. Even though he will redshirt this year, his impact in our room will be tremendous."

    This isn't the first time Kjar has worked with Williams. Kjar wrestled for Williams on the club level from for over five years.

    "Working with Greg Williams again is a sweep opportunity," Kjar said. "I am excited to come to UVSC. There is not another program in the country like this. It will be exciting to put our own personality into building this."
