wrestling. He was the starting defensive back for the 2002 state football champions and was a three-time All-State selection in wrestling, winning the 152 lbs division in 2002.
After high school, Ferguson enrolled at
Central Michigan University before transferring to
Grand Valley State University. He also did a stint at
Muskegon Community College. He went on to garner All-American honors twice, winning the national championship in the 165 lbs division.
