College Wrestlers. How are they recruited?
What do college coaches, scouts, or however wrestlers are recruited, looked at as a "good investment" for the coaches team? Is it ability, work ethic, record, state championships? Just curious, because as a sophmore this year, I'm trying to hopefully turn some heads, and any money towards college is more than I had in the first place. Also, how flexible are coaches if a player/athlete wants to compete in two sports. In my case, baseball and wrestling, if so offered. Just wondering, any information will be much appreciated.

All of the Above
Ability is certainly first and foremost. A state championship certainly suggests ability, but a state champ in one state may not be able to compete with a state champ from another state. A good video will help. Outside of pure ability, I would guess grades and attitude would be next. Reason being, if you have a good wrestler with good grades, he may be "less" likely to have a poor work ethic or a bad attitude. College coaches may very well call HS coaches to ask about the kid, once he has been identified by the college coach.
Regarding 2 sports, that's strictly a coach's call. Many DI programs discourage it, most DIIs are OK with it, DIII and NAIA schools will encourage it. It's a school by school thing.
