Show notes
In this episode, Lehigh standout Luke Stanich joins the show fresh off winning a best-of-three series to make his first U20 World Team. We talk about his rise from the New Jersey high school scene, overcoming an early deficit in the Trials finals, and how he’s quickly adjusting to freestyle with minimal experience. Luke reflects on his freshman season at Lehigh, his decision to bump up to 141, and the value of his redshirt year. We also dive into the culture in the Lehigh room, his path through NJ states, and the keys to his successful transition to college wrestling — plus a few rapid-fire questions and transfer portal thoughts to close it out.1:10 - Winning Best of 3 Series3:30 - Minimal Freestyle Experience7:00 - Down 0-4 Against Zepeda9:10 - Growth Points10:30 - Freshman Season Takeaways12:00 - Going up to 14114:30 - Redshirt Season15:20 - Lehigh Vibes for Next Season17:30 - Growing up in Jersey19:30 - Breaking Through at NJ States24:30 - Successful Transition to College28:45 - Rapid Fire Q&A34:20 - Transfer PortalBe sure to SUBSCRIBE to the podcast.
