Kerry Regner's been doing things a little differently in Walnut
Ridge, Arkansas. The head wrestling coach at Williams Baptist
College didn't wrestle folkstyle in college, rather he went to
Northern Michigan and worked in Greco-Roman.
On Thursday, October 20, Regner pushed his Greco roots a little
deeper into the ground at NAIA Williams Baptist College as the
school announced it was starting a Greco-Roman wrestling program.
That's right. A school in just its third year of wrestling is going
to create a separate competitive program in Greco-Roman
wrestling.
On Episode 288 of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast, Regner will
talk about the genesis of the idea, which started in 2014 as a
Regional Training Center concept and has morphed into the first
college-sanctioned Greco-Roman wrestling program in America.
Northern Michigan has been offering scholarships to compete in
Greco-Roman, but the program hasn't competed under the guise of the
athletic department.
Regner is overcome with options and directions. Now he just needs
to hire a coach.
