AJ Ferrari will be in Croatia next Monday to compete in the Cadet World Championships. If you havent heard the rumors of the Ferrari family moving to New Jersey are true as announced on the Ferrari brothers facebook page. AJ and Anthony will attend Blair Academy this fall so that does open up a state champion slot this fall in Texas. Meanwhile AJ is still a Texan so he will be reported on and we wish him the best of luck wrestling on the world stage.
The tournament starts Monday, July 2, at 10:30 a.m. local time (4:30 a.m. ET). Fans can watch all the action live on Trackwrestling.com and stay updated by following @USAWrestling on Twitter.
