Season Outlook:
Olivet is being led in 2018-19 by senior captains Tyler Grimsley and Jake Harvey. The team is looking to build off an 8th place finish at the NWCA Multi-National Duals and a 14-4 record from last year. Most of last year’s line-up was seeing varsity competition for the first time, and with the addition of a very talented and hard working freshman class, competition in the room should create further development.
