Send us a text

Coach Scotti Sentes shares his journey from wrestling in diapers at age two to transforming Campbell University's wrestling program and his upcoming transition to the Wrestlers in Business Network. His story reveals how wrestling shapes character, develops work ethic, and creates lifelong connections while highlighting the importance of making the sport fun alongside pursuing excellence.

• Started wrestling at two years old in Florida with his entire family involved in the sport
• Father was a former high school wrestler who recognized wrestling's value in getting his own life on track
• Majored in English and Poetry at Central Michigan University while balancing Division I wrestling
• Had his first child during junior year of college, forcing quick maturation and exceptional time management
• Transitioned directly into coaching at Cal Poly after graduation
• Transformed Campbell's program from a struggling team to conference champions
• Led the program through COVID challenges during his first year as head coach
• Recently raised $100,000 for Campbell Wrestling before announcing his departure
• Joining Wrestlers in Business Network to help connect wrestlers with career opportunities after college

I'm excited about being able to help wrestling at all levels through this new position. There's never a good time to leave coaching, but this opportunity will allow me to make a wider impact while still maintaining the connections I've built.
