Some people believe that success can be accomplished by working and specializing in one sport year-round but for former Mizzou Defensive Tackle and current Oak Park Head Wrestling Coach, being a multi-sport athlete is something that shaped him into the man and person he is today. In a recent discussion, Coach Vincent noted, “Kids need to be multi-sport athletes, coaches need to share athletes. One of the big things in my interview process we were talking about was how football and wrestling, they need to be married and they go hand in hand.”
Vincent grew up in the Kansas City Metro Area in the city of Olathe, Kansas.
