One of the top juniors in the country will be staying in-state for college as Rocky Elam has committed to wrestle for Missouri.

The #12 junior prospect is joining his older brother Zach, who was an NCAA qualifier this year for the Tigers as a true freshman. There are only four guys above him on the 2020 Big Board who have not yet announced their verbal yet.

Elam was 52-1 this year for Staley high school and won a Class 4 title for them, his first Missouri state championship. This past summer he was the 182lb Fargo Cadet freestyle champ.

Currently ranked #10 at 182, he was third at Super 32 this past October. We have him projected as a 197 at the next level, where current Mizzou starter Wyatt Koelling is a redshirt sophomore. They also have redshirt freshman Jacob Raschka, but he did not wrestle any matches this past season.

The Tigers now have two of the Top-12 verbals from the class of 2020, as #3 Keegan O'Toole is also committed.
