    Wrestling is the oldest sport. It has survived the BlackPlague, WWI, SpanishFlu, WWII, GreatDepression and will survive this. Tough times require tough people, so I’m hopeful more kids will join wrestling as a pathway to build resilience. Wrestling is needed now more than ever!

    So proud. Last time Detroit hosted I was in the stands with zero qualifiers. Another step. Gentle pressure, relentlessly applied. Until I die.

    So happy for Chloe in achieving AllAmerican status. She works her tail off and definitely earned her placement. A little backstory is before winning this match chloe was 0-3 in the round of 12 in other major tournaments. Great to punch this one through. #FARGO

    All this talk about wrestlers taking a @NCAA 7th year is pissing me off. Kolodzik wrestled 3years plus four events and can’t get a 4th NCAA tournament? He is the epitome of STUDENT-Athlete as aerospace engineering major at the #1 academic university in the country. What a joke.

    It’s really hard coaching this sport. In the highest of highs @tigerwrestling sends TWO to the semis of NCAA’s and I get to promote womens wrestling from the corner. And the lowest of lows with two of our guys getting knocked out. All in the same session. 🎢

    Check out our new series: “Homeschool With The Ayres Family”. Wrestling is a mandatory class in the Ayres home school. Learn a crafty counter to single when opponent is trying to get Turk out back door. @FloWrestling

    Dumbest rules in college wrestling? I’ll start: if you leave the weigh in line after designated skin check time you are disqualified from the tournament

    Our last day as a family in Princeton. It was a great run. Having spent the majority of my adult life here I feel so blessed. Chloe and Atticus grew up in one of the best places on earth. Lori and I were able to provide them some of the best opportunities in the world.

    Pretty interesting that every athlete at @PUTIGERS has practice at the same time. Also interesting is they all go through one door to get to their locker room. I saw a need so I filled it.Proud to announce that in addition to Wrestling HC I’m now also @Princeton Athletics Doorman
