Kasper Joins Duke Coaching Staff

Editor’s Notes; Good to see Jacob Kasper sticking around. This will help the Blue Devils as they continue to improve and that will have a positive affect on other college teams in our state. We encourage all former wrestlers and younger fans to look over the home meet schedules for the colleges in North Carolina and see some college action.

DURHAM, N.C.—Duke University wrestling head coach Glen Lanham has announced the addition of former Blue Devil standout Jacob Kasper to the coaching staff. Kasper will serve as an assistant coach and will work closely with the upper weights as well recruiting for the program.
“I’m excited to have him join our staff,” said Lanham. “I think this is the first time in the program’s history we’ve had someone as decorated as him coming back to be a part of the coaching staff. He’s going to add a youth and an excitement to our program. Whatever Kasper does, he’s passionate about and that will spill over into coaching. He’s already had some great ideas. I’m excited to see him as a coach.”
A two-time All-American at heavyweight and the Duke single-season wins record holder, Kasper joins the staff after one of the most decorated careers in Blue Devil wrestling history. The Ohio native graduated in May after finishing a career-best fourth at the NCAA Championships to earn his second consecutive All-America honor.
