Season Outlook:
The Cardinals bring back a strong squad in 2015 after graduating just two starters from last year’s team. Layten Binion returns after finding his way to the All-American podium for the first time last season and looks to climb a few spots higher. Josh Tardy, an NCAA Qualifier from 2014 also returns after a year away. Look for junior 165 pounder Eric Kirkman to make a big splash after dramatic improvement toward the end of last season.
