Evan Wick, a four-time Division I All-American wrestler, joined the Cal Poly wrestling coaching staff as an assistant coach in October 2022.
Wick wrestled at Wisconsin before transferring to Cal Poly for his final season. He won five of six matches en route to a third-place finish in the 2022 NCAA Division I National Championships at Detroit. He also placed third as a freshman in 2018 and fourth as a sophomore in 2019. The 2020 NCAAs were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the National Wrestling Coaches Association awarded Wick All-American honors.
"Evan helped change the trajectory of our program," Sioredas said. "As good as he was as a college wrestler, I believe he will become an even better coach. He has consistently demonstrated a high level of character and leadership and I could not think of a better mentor for our student-athletes."
Wick was 23-1 in his lone season of wrestling at Cal Poly (2021-22) and closed out his collegiate career with a 133-22 record. He was 7-0 in dual meets at Cal Poly and 39-5 in his collegiate career. Among his other accomplishments at Cal Poly were first-place finishes in the Michigan State Invitational and the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational.
A three-time California state place winner while attending San Marino High School, Wick majored in rehabilitation psychology at Wisconsin and earned his bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies at Cal Poly.
Wick hasn't quite put the singlet away for good just yet.
"Evan will continue to compete internationally as a member of the Titan Mercury Wrestling Club, under RTC Coach John Azevedo, with goals of winning world and Olympic medals," said Sioredas. "Actively training will allow Coach Wick to continue to lead by example and provide significant hands-on experience to our current student-athletes. This is a win-win situation for everyone involved."
One of Wick's three brothers, Luka, has also competed on the Cal Poly wrestling team.
