When American International closed its doors to wrestlers, I wondered where Jack MacKiernan an NCAA D2 qualifier with Super Region I finishes of 3rd-4th-4th would end up. Quite surprised that the answer is Mount Olive. I imagine with as good as both he & Calan Staub are, that we may see some weight changes. I wouldn't think they'll both be fighting for 184 all season long, but perhaps they will.
