Episode #10: Lennie & Jim Zalesky talk about growing up together and their joy of coaching the sport they have grown to love, wrestling.
Growing up you might think that wrestling was the only thing talked about in the Zalesky house for the all-american and hall of fame wrestlers Jim and Lennie Zalesky, but you would be wrong. Jim only competed in 1 event when was in the 7th grade and neither of them really got into the sport until high school. A very modest start for these 2 gentlemen who are now coaching together in the first season at Cal Poly Humboldt after a 33 year hiatus for wrestling on campus in Arcata, CA. Lennie came out of retirement for this opportunity and Jim left another position to come coach with his brother. Listen to them share their stories from wrestling in the basement as kids to winning national titles at Iowa and now back together again on the beautiful north coast of California.
