All-American LaMont Is Headed To Big Ten
All-American Taylor LaMont announced that he plans to finish his career at Wisconsin after making four trips to the NCAA Championships at Utah Valley.
Wisconsin has added another key lineup piece in its quest to continue moving up the NCAA team ladder.
All-American Taylor LaMont announced Tuesday that he plans to finish his college career with the Badgers after making four trips to the NCAA Championships at Utah Valley, where he compiled a 69-21 record while bouncing between 125 and 133, including a 12-6 mark this past season.
In addition to his college feats, LaMont is a Greco standout who’s made seven age-group World Teams.
The Mapleton, Utah, native entered the transfer portal in April and considered Cal Poly, Iowa and Iowa State before picking Wisconsin. He’s joining a program that finished 14th at the NCAA Championships and had three All-Americans — Eric Barnett (125), Austin Gomez (149) and Dean Hamiti (165).
Along with Barnett, who still has a redshirt season at his disposal, and returning NCAA 133-pound qualifier Kyle Burwick, the addition of LaMont gives the Badgers another highly credentialed lightweight option.
