  • Exploring the world of California Community College wrestling at the 3C2A Championships

    Exploring the world of California Community College wrestling at the 3C2A Championships
    2024/12/19
    For the past 20-something years that I’ve covered the world of college wrestling, one system has always been extremely unique and interesting to me, the California Community College Athletic Association. Now branded as the 3C2A, the organization has sponsored a men’s wrestling collegiate championship since 1959. In 1982, the strangest thing about the league came into being - it became a fall sport. So for over 40 years, the first wrestling to kick off each season isn’t the NWCA All-Star Classic or an open somewhere in Michigan, it’s in September in California.

    So what and who is actually competing out there? I went to find out, seeing some familiar faces along the way to tell some stories about what the athletes and coaches get out of competing in wrestling’s fall season.

    On this episode, you’ll hear from:
    7:40 - John Sachs from Tech-Fall.com
    10:50 - Mt. San Antonio head coach David Rivera
    13:00 - Fresno City College head coach Paul Keysaw
    16:00 - Palomar College head coach Timmy Box
    20:45 - Lassen College head coach Lonnie Nalls
    25:30 - Mt. San Antonio assistant coach Chris Mecate
    32:20 - Cal Poly Humboldt (D2) assistant coach Jim Zalesky
    35:30 - Cuesta College head coach Joe Dansby
    41:20 - Sacramento City College head coach Marques Gales

  • Catching up with Concordia, TCNJ, Lakeland, Central, Sioux Falls and Stevens Institute at the Auggie Invitational

    Catching up with Concordia, TCNJ, Lakeland, Central, Sioux Falls and Stevens Institute at the Auggie Invitational
    2024/11/19
    One of the dynamics of small college wrestling is finding mat time for your large rostered teams. At Augsburg University, the Auggies host the Auggie Invitational, which has multiple divisions to help larger programs get mat time and keep their starters and non-starters engaged in their respective programs.

    On Saturday, November 16, Jason Bryant of Mat Talk Online skipped over to Si Melby Hall on Augsburg’s campus to talk to a handful of coaches from around the region, country and Division II and III. What does each coach like to get out of these trips.

    On this episode, you’ll hear from:

    8:10 - Concordia-Moorhead (Minn.) head coach Quincy Osborn.
    12:36 - TCNJ head coach Joe Galante
    19:15 - Lakeland head coach Mike DeRoehn
    27:40 - Central head coach Landon Williams
    33:50 - Sioux Falls head coach Matt Meuleners
    40:18 - Stevens Institute head coach Anthony Bonaventura

  • 411 Throwback: Talking with David Taylor after winning the 2009 Dave Schultz H.S. Excellence Award

    411 Throwback: Talking with David Taylor after winning the 2009 Dave Schultz H.S. Excellence Award
    2024/11/05
    Back on May 8, 2009, the Wrestling 411 podcast with Kyle Klingman and Jason Bryant was running through its first (And only) season. A senior from Graham High School in Ohio named David Taylor would win the 2009 Dave Schultz High School Excellence Award from the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. Taylor had signed with Iowa State, but Cael Sanderson had a few week prior left Iowa State to take over at Penn State. At the time, Taylor didn’t yet know where he was publicly going to go, although most assumed he would follow Sanderson to Penn State.

    This interview is from during Taylor’s senior year in high school. Taylor recently finished with a bronze medal at the non-Olympic world championships in Tirana, Albania, which most believe was his last competitive tournament. Taylor now takes over as the head coach at Oklahoma State. Enjoy this throwback from 2009.

  • Iowa Women's Wrestling Media Day: Head Coach Clarissa Chun

    Iowa Women's Wrestling Media Day: Head Coach Clarissa Chun
    2024/10/15
    On Iowa women’s wrestling media day, Iowa women’s wrestling coach Clarissa Chun addressed the upcoming season. The team returns nine All-Americans, including four defending national champions, and welcomes seven freshmen and four transfers.
    Chun highlighted the benefits of training in the new state-of-the-art Goschke Center and emphasized the importance of continuous improvement, rather than focusing solely on outcomes. She praised transfer Kennedy Blades for her quick integration into the team and discussed the growth of leadership within the program, particularly from the current juniors who have embraced guiding the newcomers.
    Chun also addressed the hunger and competitive spirit of the incoming freshmen, noting their desire to challenge for starting positions. Chun reflected on the culture established at Iowa, which has attracted top recruits and transfers, and expressed a desire to see more Division I programs, especially in Power Five conferences, add women’s wrestling. She also gave an update on injuries, stating that Nyla Valencia and Haley Ward will be out for the season but the rest of the roster is ready.
    Chun concluded by discussing the importance of international training opportunities, mentioning the recent collaboration with the Canadian team and last year’s experience with the Ukrainian team. She also previewed the upcoming U23 World Championships, where three Hawkeyes will compete, including Macey Kilty, Kylie Welker, and Skye Realin.
