After making official NCAA visits to Arizona State University,
Clarion University, the University of Tennessee Chattanooga, the University of
Wyoming, and the University of Oklahoma, where at each he received wrestling
scholarship offers in the early signing period, Oviedo High School State
Champion Chase Gordon has signed a letter of intent to continue his wrestling
career and obtain his college education at the University of Oklahoma.
Chase's resume of wrestling includes 2009 Florida High School State
Champion, two-time Fargo USA Wrestling All-American, 2009 FILA Junior Nationals
All-American, and 2008 Brute Adidas Folkstyle National Champion/Outstanding
Wrestler.
As a junior in high school, Chase's trek to an individual State
Championship at 140 pounds included wins at the Florida High School State
Championships tournament over four seniors. Along the way, he dispatched a
regular season loss, just one of two on a 46-2 season campaign, with a win in
the quarterfinals. In the semifinals, he defeated the state runner-up from
the previous year to advance to the Championship Finals. In the match for
the State Championship title, Chase won over the defending State Champion to
stand on the upper rung at the awards ceremony as a State Champion.
Chase Gordon is a three-year Team Captain for the four-time State
Champion Oviedo wrestling program.
