James Green Retires, Joins USAW Coaching Staff
Husker great James Green announced his retirement from wrestling on Friday, April 8. While he will no longer be competing, Green will step into a new role as the developmental coach for Team USA.
"Nothing is guaranteed in this life, and we must control what we can control," Green said. "I can't wait to share my knowledge of the sport with the next generation."
As a competitor, Green won a silver medal at the 2017 World Championships and a bronze medal at the 2015 World Championships. The former Husker competed on six U.S. Senior World Teams and most recently wrestled for the Southeast Regional Training Center and the Titan Mercury Wrestling Club.
