Head Coach Clint Stoy commented on this year's recruiting class, "I am very impressed with the level of talent that will be a part of our program next year. My assistant coaches Levi Meyer and Matt Valley targeted some of the top athletes from Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and even Michigan, all who fit well within our program. These young men bought into our vision and will all make an impact next year. These guys come from great families and have a great work ethic to fit in with the program's mindset.
