LITTLE ROCK - Another program milestone has been reached for Little Rock wrestling as the program's first official student-athlete has been added to the roster. Head coach Neil Erisman has added Conner Ward to the program's inaugural roster, building up to the program's first season of competition in 2019-20.
"Conner is a tough, hard-nosed gritty kid," Erisman said. "He's not flashy and he's not about making it about himself, but he's an incredibly tough wrestler. He has a very similar path as I did, experiencing some heartbreak in his career, but he used that as motivation and became a state champion.
