Former Norwin and Bucknell wrestling standout Drew Phipps will join the staff at Seton Hill as a graduate assistant.

Phipps served as an assistant at Bucknell, which he graduated from in 2020, last season. He piled up 99 wins at the collegiate level and was a two-time NCAA qualifier and a three-time conference placewinner.

“What an amazing opportunity to not only continue to grow and develop as a wrestling coach but to earn a valuable degree along the way,” Phipps said. “I couldn’t be more excited for this opportunity.”

He will work toward obtaining a two-year MBA degree while he is coaching.
