I am and have been the Head wrestling coach at Davison High School, in Davison Michigan for 10 years. I coached the middle school for 2 years prior. I have been a middle school physical education teacher at Davison for 12 years. I am a proud graduate of Davison High School, where I was a 2 time State Champ and 4 time state placer, as well being a Dream Team All-american for 1988. My wife Jennifer is a Health teacher as well she runs the peer counseling program at the high school. She is like an administrative assistant for the wrestling team. Also being the biggest fan. We have 3 beautiful children. Chase 8, Haley 7 and Cannon 5. I earned my bachelors degree from Michigan State University where I was a 4 time NCAA Qualifier and Captain of the wrestling team. I wrestled in the 1988 JR World Championships, in Bregenz Austria, where I placed 7th at 74 kilos. I also placed 4th in 1987 Jr Freestyle Nationals and 2nd 1988 JR freestyle Nationals. I represented the USA Dream Team for the Oklahoma Classic where I was chosen Outstanding wrestler.

When I arrived to Davison I inherited a program that hadn’t had a winning season in 8 years or a State Champ since I had graduated. The high school team couldn’t fill a full lineup. I however, was up to the challenge. I coached the middle school for 2 years and established a freestyle and Greco state regional training facility at Davison. I realized we would have to establish a culture and create passion for the sport. I was fortunate to have former 2 time State Champ and 3 time NCAA Qualifier from LSU Kent Elliot. We pushed each other and inspired the attitude and culture of Davison Wrestling today. We won our first Team State title in 2000, we were second in 2001 and then won 5 straight Big School state titles. During this time we pushed the Junior and Cadet National duals, regionals and National Championships. We established our program as a national force and created an atmosphere that motivated kids and families to move to Davison. I have represented USA Michigan at the last 12 Cadet/Junior Nationals. We have established the Attack Trained wrestling Camps, where we have brought in numerous National level coaches and wrestlers. We have had access to many University of Michigan wrestlers, Michigan State, and Central Michigan. Mike Kulzcki, Ryan Bertin and Andy Hrovat have been a huge asset. They attended the University of Michigan and St Edwards in Ohio. This has allowed us to establish a nice rivalry with St Edwards. We have wrestled them in 6 duals since 2002 and actually beaten them at the Medina invitational, in 2003.

We have had 2 wrestlers win the NHSCA National title and 2 others place second. Chase Metcalf defeated Darrel Vasquez of California to win the 2002 Title. Paul Donahoe won the 2004 National title and also won 2 Jr Freestyle Titles as well as placing 4th in the 2003 JR Worlds. Paul is nationally ranked at Nebraska. Brent Metcalf University of Iowa, was a 4time undefeated State Champ as well record breaking 6 time Jr National Champ, he was 2nd in the 2005 Nhsca. Jon Reader Iowa State University was 2nd at the NHSCA in 2006 as well outstanding wrestler and double Jr National Champion in 2006. Trevor Perry is currently the 174lber at Indiana university, he placed 7th at the 2005 Nhsca and was 2nd Jr Greco and 6th Freestyle his senior Year. Kyle Chittick is a freshmen at Cleveland State and was a 3 time Fargo All-American. In addition Keenan Duffie is Wrestling 149 and 157 for North Carolina. Jason Whitman is currently wrestling for Central Michigan University and ZaK Burns former Cadet All-American and State Champ is at Princeton. These wresters established great expectations for Davison and the rest of Michigan.

I would like to thank my parents and brother and sister for allowing me to be married to this sport for 31 years. I started when I was 6 and haven’t stopped. My parents sacrificed so much and I appreciate it! Now my wife has inherited this sport, I thank her for allowing and sharing it with me. I have had tremendous support from parents. Without that we would not have won 6of the last 7 State Titles. Our school has been supportive and our community has been supportive. I have been blessed with a few passionate coaches in Coach Kent Elliott and Bob Smith as well as Bill Stouffer now. I am thankful for being a part and sharing the great lessons of wrestling with so many great families and kids. The Streeter’s, Roush’s, Metcalf’s, Perry’s, Readers’s, Rickard’s, Coggin’s, Chittick’s, Kidder’s, Burn’s and many others.
