Buffalo Bulls Wrestling

I am attending the Greater Buffalo Hall of Fame banquet tonight in honor of former UB Wrestler and Hall-of-Fame Coach Eric Knuutila.  Coach Knuutila will be inducted into the Hall-of-Fame later on this evening as both a Niagara County Community College Coach and a UB graduate/wrestler.  At NCCC, Coach Knuutila became one of the winningest coaches in NCAA Wrestling history.  He and his wife Linda have provided WNY with decades of leadership, guidance and service to the wrestling community.  They have also been mentor’s and role models to thousands of student-athletes across NYS and around the country.  I am very happy to say that Eric and Linda Knuutila have mentored me through the years as both a competitor and as a coach. 

He is widely recognized by people around the country as one of the most respected and decorated coaches in the country.  I am both honored and privileged to attend Coach Knuutila's Induction tonight.

 

Congrats Coach and Linda!!
