Ohio State added some mass to its roster Friday night via the transfer portal, as former Utah Valley heavyweight Tate Orndorff announced via Instagram that he is moving to Columbus. The two-time NCAA Qualifier finished his redshirt sophomore season with an 18-4 record, placing fifth at the Big 12 Championship.
He'll have two years of eligibility remaining. The addition of another heavyweight to the roster all but confirms that Chase Singletary will move down to 197 pounds as Kollin Moore's successor.
Ohio State has planned for Singletary to take an Olympic redshirt this season while Greg Kerkvliet wrestled heavyweight.
