WINFIELD, Kan. – Three-time All-American Sarah Bollinger has been named Head Women’s Wrestling Coach at Southwestern College. The announcement was made Tuesday by Athletic Director Matt Shelton.

“We couldn’t be more excited to have found Sarah,” Shelton said. “She brings a wealth of experience, both as a student-athlete and as a coach at the NAIA level, and embodies the Builder Spirit that we always look for in a head coach. I’m excited to see where she takes our newest program.”

Bollinger comes to Southwestern after a three-year stint as Assistant Wrestling Coach at Missouri Baptist University in St. Louis, Mo., where she helped produce six All-Americans and a national champion. She also coached an NAIA Champions of Character award winner, and saw 13 of her student-athletes graduate last season.

“I’m excited to start the women’s wrestling program at Southwestern College,” Bollinger said. “This is an incredible opportunity, and I can’t wait to get to campus and get started.”

Bollinger also has six years of coaching experience USA Wrestling High School National Team, where she has produced 62 All-Americans, and a pair of national champions. In 2016, Bollinger coached Team Missouri in its first two years of existence, and led the squad to a 10^th place finish in its first season of existence.

Bollinger graduated from Missouri Baptist in 2016 with a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science and Physical Education, and will complete her Master’s degree in Sport Management this May.
