Head coach John Stutzman remembers the “dark age” of UB wrestling.
It was a time when the Bulls won one Mid-American Conference matchup in three seasons. The program wasn’t getting many standout wrestlers out of high school, while competing in a conference that is one of the best in the nation.
Stutzman and the Bulls (10-8, 2-5 Mid-American Conference) are hoping recent and incoming recruits – wrestlers who’ve won state championship at the high school level – can continue the program’s climb out of its “dark age.”
No one wrestler embodies that more than Kyle Akins.
