Maverick wrestler Elijah Madison, who will be a redshirt freshman this fall, went 7-0 in individual duals to lead the Missouri-Kansas Greco-Roman team to the Concord Junior World Greco-Roman Championship in Concord, Calif., last month.

Madison won the heavyweight championship in the individual tournament following the duals, posting a record of 3-0 on the day.

As a freshman last season, Madison went 23-1 while wrestling unattached in open tournaments. In high school, he went 137-8, ranking second in the nation and earning the 2007 National Wrestling Coaches Association national championship.
