Jonathan Deupree, Class of 2015, Wrestling
A back-to-back NCAA Division III Northeast Regional Champions (184 pounds), Jonathan Deupree finished a stellar three-year career with the Huskies’ wrestling program with a record of 66-11, including 16 wins by fall.  Surpassing the 20-win mark in his final two seasons, Deupree was an outstanding 52-8 during the 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 seasons. He was named to the All-New England Wrestling Association teams in 2014 (second team) and 2015 (first team).
 
Placing fifth at the NCAA regional championship (2013) in his first season to earn All-Region status, Deupree continued his upward trajectory claiming the title of Regional Champion in 2014 and 2015. At the 2014 NCAA Regional Championship, Deupree rumbled his way to the final and earned a thrilling overtime win by fall (7:37) victory over Roger Williams’ David Welch to punch his first of two tickets to the NCAA Championship, and was named the tournament’s Co-Wrestler of the Championship.  Ranked in the top 10 nationally for a majority of his final season, Deupree defended his title in 2015, posting a 4-0 record at the regional championship and defeating SUNY Cortland’s Tyler Beckwith by decision in overtime 9-7.
