What started as a project for Black History Month a few years
ago turned into something bigger for South Carolina high school
wrestling coach Kevin Emily. On Episode 432 of the Short Time
Wrestling Podcast, we'll talk with Emily about his two books,
Pathfinder and Pathfinder Vol. 2.
Emily, who coaches at Midland Valley High School in Graniteville,
S.C., has spent a lifetime around wrestling. Prior to moving back
to his family in South Carolina, Emily coached at storied West High
School in Waterloo, Iowa. His first book chronicles some of the
early journeys of African-American wrestlers in the sport of
wrestling, going back to the first black NCAA championship
qualifier, Harold Henson of San Diego State.
Throughout the show, Emily details stories and meanings behind why
he turned his idea into a self-published book and then why he felt
the need to push another volume out, creating what's more or less a
Pathfinder series.
Emily wrestled collegiately at Chattanooga.
