"This is an exciting time for my family," Wesley said. "I knew that Grand Valley State was an ideal situation for me from a professional and personal standpoint. Grand Valley State has all of the components and elements necessary to build a successful program. I feel that Grand Valley State is the benchmark for Division II institutions in terms of academic and athletic excellence."
A native of Chesaning, Wesley graduated from Central Michigan University.
