Jake Ryan
- Title:
- Director of Operations
Jake Ryan, a member of the Cal Poly wrestling team from 2018-22, was hired as the program’s director of operations in August 2022.
Ryan won six of 14 matches at 141 pounds, all by decision, as a redshirt freshman during the 2019-20 season. He represented Cal Poly in the Pac-12 Championships at 141 pounds and won his first match before an injury sidelined him for the rest of the tournament. The season was shut down a short time later due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ryan won his first three matches that year, including two in the first two duals of the season against San Francisco State and Buffalo. He did not wrestle in his final two seasons due to injury nor did he wrestle in any matches during his redshirt year in the 2018-19 season.
Ryan is a 2018 graduate of Oakdale High School, wrestling under former Cal Poly wrestling standout Steve Strange. After a series of injuries, he finally earned his first CIF-Sac-Joaquin Section Masters championship during his senior season, earning a berth in the state finals. Ryan suffered injuries to both knees as a freshman and sophomore and tore his rotator cuff during the summer prior to his junior campaign.
On his way to a 24-4 season as a senior, Ryan placed first in the CIF-Sac-Joaquin Section Division III Championship and was third at the CIF-Sac-Joaquin Section Masters Meet for his spot in the California State High School Championship at 145 pounds, where he was 2-1.
Ryan graduated with honors from Oakdale High School and is majoring in interdisciplinary studies at Cal Poly.
