    Keller went undefeated in five matches this past weekend at the Virginia Duals. Wrestling at 133 pounds, he registered a pin and two major decisions while scoring victories over wrestlers from Columbia, Drexel, Indiana and North Carolina.

    The junior from McDonald, Tenn., led UTC to a third-place finish and a 4-1 record in Hampton, Va. The Mocs defeated Columbia, Drexel and North Carolina twice while falling to eventual champion Indiana in the semifinals.

    Keller, currently ranked as high as No. 7 nationally by the National Wrestling Coaches Association and IntermatWrestle, is the team leader with a 27-7 overall record. He also owns a 10-match winning streak.
