BOONE, N.C. — A one-time North Carolina high school state champion who didn't immediately break into App State Wrestling's starting lineup, Jon Jon Millner closes his career as one of the all-time greats in program history.
Millner became App State's first four-time SoCon champion, making him a four-time NCAA Championships qualifier at 149 pounds. He earned All-America honors in each of his two NCAA appearances, with COVID canceling the 2020 tournament and an illness forcing him to withdraw from this week's 2023 event.
After winning his fourth SoCon title in his final match, Millner walked off the mat in the Holmes Center with a 121-24 career record to leave him No.
