When a team has a lot of success, it’s only natural for its coaches to be asked to take on better jobs at other schools. App State wrestling is no exception to this.
Over the last five years, the Mountaineers have won four conference championships and had 22 individual berths for the NCAA Championships. After this level of success, former co-assistant coaches Josh Roosa and Ryan LeBlanc took head coaching jobs elsewhere. Roosa was hired to become the head coach at King’s College in May, and LeBlanc was named the new head coach at SoCon opponent The Citadel in July.
