Wrestling

[edit]

PennWest Edinboro has one of the premier NCAA Division I collegiate wrestling programs. Prior to moving to the Division I level in 1986, Edinboro was already well-known in NAIA and NCAA Division II levels. Bruce Baumgartner, Olympic wrestler, began instructing at PennWest Edinboro in 1984 as an assistant coach, and was promoted to head coach in 1991. He guided the Fighting Scots to three top 15 finishes in the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships. Baumgartner became the director of athletics in 1997. PennWest Edinboro's wrestling program has produced 120 PSAC champions, 59 EWL champions, 60 NCAA All-Americans, 4 NCAA Division I champions, 9 NCAA Division II and NAIA national champions, 2 USA Olympic team members, 17 PSAC tournament team championships, and 14 EWL tournament team championships.[citation needed]

Three former PennWest Edinboro wrestlers and former All-Americans have transitioned and found success in mixed martial arts. Former NCAA Division I champion Josh Koscheck is a former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) title challenger and Bellator fighter. Another former NCAA Division I champion, Gregor Gillespie is a former UFC fighter. Former NCAA Division I runner-up Chris Honeycutt is a former Bellator fighter and current Absolute Championship Akhmat (ACA) fighter.

The current PennWest Edinboro wrestling head coach is Matt Hill, who previously served as an assistant at Kent State Univsersity. Hill previously wrestled collegiately at PennWest Edinboro.
