Chase McLaren with his parents Dustin McLaren and Jess Ehrman and Atlantic/CAM coach Tim Duff

Atlantic/CAM wrestler Chase McLaren signed his national letter of intent Thursday to wrestle for Grand View University in Des Moines.  Entering his senior season, McLaren has a chance to be a four time state qualifier after a 7th place finish at 132 pounds last season.  McLaren credits the Atlantic/CAM program for making this opportunity possible.

McLaren describes how he will fit into the Grand View program.

Grand View has won the last seven NAIA national championships and had 10 All-Americans last season.  McLaren wants to tap into that success.

McLaren considered playing baseball in college, but chose to wrestle at Grand View after fielding other offers.  He will study business and said being in Des Moines was another plus for Grand View.
