Reitmeier on Tvinnereim: “We are excited to announce that another outstanding student-athlete is joining our program in Jacob Tvinnereim. Jacob is coached by Augustana Alumni Randy Baker and is another outstanding student-athlete from Southern Minnesota. Jacob is a tough, athletic kid who is looking to score all the time. He has lots of experience at the national level wrestling in Freestyle and Greco. We feel Jacob hasn’t reach his full potential in wrestling and his ceiling is extremely high.
