The day will consist of five sessions (9:15 and 10:30 a.m., and 1, 2, and 3 p.m.) that focus on technique, peaking, strength, nutrition, mental skills and drilling. The cost of the clinic is $30 per coach or wrestler.
Barbee, who enters his seventh season at Army, was a three-time All-American at perennial power Oklahoma State. The Black Knight's mentor has led the program back onto the national scene cracking the NCAA Top 25 polls last season, and will serve as the primary instructor throughout the day.
Mike Clayton and Bill Maldonado round out the Army coaching staff, and list of presenters for the day's events. Clayton, a 1995 Navy graduate, has mentored 30 All-Americans and eight NCWA Champions during his coaching career. Maldonado, a 2002 Iowa State, was a NCAA All-American with the Cyclones and holds a master's degree in education.
Participants are encouraged to watch Army's Black vs. Gold intra-squad dual meet following the clinic. Admission is free with matches starting at 4 p.m.
Any wrestlers or coaches interested in attending any of the day's planned activities can contact Maldonado by phone at 845-938-5028 or by e-mail at william.maldonado@usma.edu.
