Neil Erisman Named Little Rock Trojans’ Head Coach

TDR Editor; Good to see assistant coaches in demand and willing to take the step up and meet the challenge of being a head coach. Not only that but the first coach in a new program on the D-I level. That is accepting a big challenge. Good luck Coach Erisman.

LITTLE ROCK – Little Rock has reached another milestone in the process of adding wrestling as its 15th intercollegiate athletic program with Director of Athletics Chasse Conque announcing the hiring of Neil Erisman as the program’s first head wrestling coach. Erisman brings to Little Rock an impressive career both as a competitor and coach at the Division I level, encompassing two of the nation’s top programs in Oklahoma State and North Carolina. During his coaching career, Erisman has mentored 20 NCAA All-Americans and four NCAA individual champions. “Today starts a new chapter for Little Rock Trojan Athletics with the hiring of Neil Erisman as our first head wrestling coach,” said Conque. “We had tremendous interest in the position and we feel coach Erisman is the right person to lead our program at Little Rock. Neil brings a deep understanding of the sport, a passion for leading young men and a commitment to doing things the right way, giving us great confidence that bright days are ahead for Little Rock wrestling.”
