IOWA STATE’S BOBBY DOUGLAS TO BE KEYNOTE SPEAKER AT 
NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIPS BANQUET

  Iowa State University head wrestling coach, Bobby Douglas, will be the keynote banquet speaker at the 14th annual National High School Seniors Wrestling Championships this year, the National High School Coaches Association (NHSCA) announced today.

 

The event is scheduled for March 27-29 at the Public Hall Convention Center in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. The tournament will be preceded by the National High School Coaches Convention, which begins March 26. The National High School Seniors Wrestling Championships is open to any high school senior who has been a state finalist during his career, except for four single-class states: California, where top-six place winners are eligible to compete, and Indiana, New Jersey, and New York, where top-four place winners are eligible. In addition, seniors who have finished in the top four in the High School Division of the NHSCA National Open Championships are also eligible.

In his 30th year as a head coach and 11th year at Iowa State, Bobby Douglas was the winner of Wrestling Institutes Newsmagazine’s 2002 Dan Gable Coach of the Year Award. Since taking the helm at Iowa State in 1992, Douglas has accumulated a 147-52-3 dual record, an amazing .735 winning percentage.

For Douglas, life at the top of collegiate wrestling has been the rule. Seven wrestlers on his first Cyclone team earned All-America honors at the 1993 NCAA Championship, ISU’s highest total in 10 seasons. The Cyclones were 13-4 in dual competition and Douglas was named Big Eight Conference Coach of the Year.

In 2000, Douglas was named the National Wrestling Coach of the Year as the Cyclones went 20-2 in dual action, including a win over Minnesota for the national dual team title.

Before taking over Iowa State’s prestigious wrestling program, Douglas built one of his own at Arizona State. From 1975 to 1992, Douglas guided ASU to nine conference titles and nine top-10 NCAA team finishes, including the school’s first national championship in 1988 and consecutive NCAA runner-up finishes in 1989 and 1990. Douglas’ coaching accomplishments have not gone unnoticed, earning conference coach of the year honors nine times at ASU and three times with Iowa State.

He was USA Wrestling’s Man of the Year in 1992 and the National Wrestling Coaches Association Coach of the Year in 2000.

Douglas is considered one of the nation’s most knowledgeable and respected experts in his field and because of this he has been USA Wrestling’s top choice to coach several World and Olympic teams, most recently the 2002 U.S. Freestyle World Team.
