Cael Sanderson and Joe Heskett both enrolled at Iowa State. Both at the top of the recruiting class, with Heskett at the time rated a bit higher than Sanderson. Heskett had beat Sanderson at the Reno Tournament the year before in High School.

At the time - which would you have put your betting dollars on to be a 4 time NCAA Champ?

Maybe Heskett? But, I saw them both at the 97 Dapper Dan and felt Sanderson looked better.

Little did we know that Heskett has some really serious cardiac issues.  I wonder how much, if any, these issues were affecting him in high school and college.

It is amazing that Joe did what he did with his health problems. If they had caught them before College he never would have seen the mat.

One of my favorite wrestlers & a good guy.

At the time I figured Joe would have the better career. Cael amazed us all & he continues to do so. He and Joe made a good package at Iowa State.

Coincidentally enough, Joe's son just won a junior high state title in Ohio this weekend. I think he's going to Watterson, a program that is flourishing with involvement from Tommy Rowlands and Ross Thatcher.

He was/is a really great guy. Recollection is mid/late rsFR year think everybody thought Joe would have a slightly better career.
