Head Wrestling Coach Kyle Rodewald told me that besides assistant Tucker Taylor, “Samuel Cox will be the volunteer assistant. That way, we’ve got somebody the right size and younger than me and Tucker to wrestle with Daryl. It’s actually going to be really good. He’s getting ready to get into shape for the Air Force.
