Important Schedule Update!
We’re excited to share an update to our upcoming practice schedule and to officially welcome a new coach to the mat.
- Youth practices begin Monday, March 3
- JH/HS/Open practices begin Monday, March 16
Starting March 16, our JH/HS/Open group will be led by Justin Taylor, a former Auburn High School wrestler and an accomplished, proven coach. Justin brings years of coaching experience and a deep passion for the sport back to our program.
As an athlete, Justin was a two-time Alabama state qualifier, placing 3rd as a junior and 2nd as a senior. As a coach, he has helped develop state champions and future collegiate wrestlers, and we’re thrilled to have his energy, technical expertise, and leadership shaping our room.
This is a big step forward for our program, and we’re excited about what’s ahead.
We’ll see you on the mat.
