To begin the season, Porter finished fifth at the Oklahoma Gold Showcase and sixth at the Body Bar Invitational.
Jermail has started to take it to the next level, said Head Coach Jim Andrassy. Jermail didnt start wrestling until his sophomore year of high school and has made some big strides. He hasnt reached his full potential yet, but hell continue to get better and better with hard work. Jermail was among the best freshmen in the country but his goals go well beyond that.
The Golden Flashes were ranked No. 25 in the final NWCA Dual Meet Poll after posting a record of 14-4-1 and finished second at the Mid-American Conference Championships.
