Dylan Boyd is a Stillwater Senior Living Male Athlete of the Month for the Warriors. He started the season with a 14-3 overall mark and appears to be one of the area’s finest wrestlers for the season.
“Dylan is a young man who is working hard in the room and has been very helpful this year with helping out a lot of our newer wrestlers this year helping to teach them how to wrestle,” Coach Venne said.
“Dylan is planning to wrestle in college after graduation and has received interest from Millikin University, Lindenwood University, SIUE, Central Methodist University, and Missouri Baptist, but he is undecided at this time on the school he will attend next season.”
