For Wetzel, this is just the beginning. He is heading to Ohio State University in the fall to play for the Buckeyes.

“I just fell in love with it,” he said about Ohio State. “I love the culture of the team there, the whole campus, all the different options academically and just the coaches too, volleyball-wise.”
