After his successful Paris Olympics endeavor, Sebastian Rivera has chosen Columbia University as his next element to concentrate on.
The 26-year-old has had a favorable connection to his previous fold, Rutgers’ wrestling coaches. Still, he decided to break his relationship with the camp and follow his mentor, Donnie Pritzlaff, to the Paris Olympics.
After leaving Rutgers, Pritzlaff moved to NYC this June as the head coach in the wrestling wing. Rivera will now join him as his deputy.
However, But when Rivera spoke about Penn State Wrestling and that everybody was leaving, hosts Frankie and Roger Mathews couldn’t believe his initial words.
After all, under Cael Sanderson’s coaching, the wrestling program has almost touched the sky. PSU had the highest number of wrestlers participating in the US Olympic wrestling trials, including names like Aaron Brooks.
However, Rivera stood firm in his answer. He added, “A lot of them are just done. Like, no, are you gonna wrestle anymore? You’re doing a lot of Jiu-Jitsu
.” Rivera also disclosed that he had received a call from none other than Bo Nickal, requesting him to join PSU as a wrestler.
