WVU hires Olympic medalist Sammie Henson

Postby aacoach61 » Mon May 19, 2014 11:32 pm

Olympic Silver medalist and World Champion Sammie Henson has been hired as WVU's new head wrestling coach. AD Oliver Luck pointed out that Henson's background should reinvigorate the Olympic training center at WVU that was last a hot spot when Zeke Jones was an assistant.

Great article and interview link below:

Greg Jones comes off as very congenial, considering his position. He'll land somewhere.
