We welcome Dan's wrestling coach Paul Bass to the podcast this episode.
Over his career, 37 seasons as a coach, 32 as head coach, all at Westhampton Beach High School, Bass amassed 324 wins, making him the sixth winningest coach in Suffolk County (NY).
During his time coaching, he produced 246 All-League wrestlers, eight county champions, 13 state qualifiers, and six wrestlers were All-State.
Bass was named the Coach of the Year title seven times in his career, and in 2015 he was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.
Coach Bass talks about what he gained from coaching the sport for almost four decades, what it still means to him today and how he and wrestlers both changed over the years.
Plus, he gives us the inside scoop on how good of a wrestler Dan was in high school.
In the intro we discuss the new classifications that came out earlier this month and go on a mini rant about how the state duals should be seeded.
All of this and more on this week's episode.
