Was there a Mike Wilson in "88 class that played at an Ivy league school?

Was there a Mike Wilson in "88 class that played at an Ivy league school?

 

That's a good call. Mike was a DB for Cov Cath on the 1987 state championship team. 2nd team Associates Press All-State, honorable mention Courier-Journal All-State, and 1st team Enquirer All-NKY. He played at Princeton.

 

I always wondered if Mike Wilson (CCH '88) and Cov Cath Hall of Famer Dave Wilson (CCH '91) were related.

Mike and David Wilson are brothers.

Wow! Not only does he get to keep playing at the next level, but also get an unmatched world class level education. Congratulations!

To further close the loop, David Wilson and Lucas’s Dad, Barry Jones, were teammates and classmates at CCH.
