Rutgers wrestling coach John Sacchi has decided that after 40 years he will be hanging up his wrestling shoes and enter retirement. Sacchi had posted a 447-162-9 career record, making him the second winningest active coach in college wrestling at any level with regard to dual victories.
“There have been so many great things that have happened with individual wrestlers over the years and it gives me great pleasure to know that some of the kids I coached are now coaching themselves,” Sacchi said. “It’s giving back to the sport. I feel very, very fortunate that I was able to find a career where I could make a living and enjoy every day of it.”
