Grif Wurtz is a rangy, high-IQ DB who keeps showing up on the stat sheet and the honors list
Wurtz was a true every-down defender for St. Thomas in 2024, starting in all 12 games and finishing with 73 tackles, 2 interceptions, and 4 pass breakups, while also earning Academic All-PFL and FCS ADA Academic All-Star recognition.[1][3] What makes him stand out is his blend of production and reliability: he has been a steady tackler for multiple seasons, has created takeaways, and even made a splash on special teams with a 79-yard fumble return TD earlier in his career.[1][2][4] He looks like a smart, durable fit for a defense that values versatility, effort, and consistency.
