"We are very excited about DeWitt joining our staff and running the Carolina Wrestling Club. This is something that is not only very good for our program, but also tremendous for amateur wrestling in the state of North Carolina," said Mock.
"DeWitt has been part of one of the best club programs in the country at Penn State University. In addition to working with our middle weights at the college level, he will be a great asset to local high school wrestlers with his knowledge and experience. We are pleased to welcome DeWitt and his wife Faryn to our Carolina family."
A four-time letterman at Penn State, Driscoll was a three-time Big Ten place winner and NCAA qualifier for the Nittany Lions. Despite missing significant time due to injuries in three of his four seasons, Driscoll finished his career ranked ninth all-time on the Penn State career falls list, and led the team in falls as a senior.
Driscoll graduated from Penn State in the spring of 2006 with a Bachelor of Science degree in recreation, park and tourism management. During his senior year completed a full-time internship with the Nittany Lion Wrestling Club, gaining experience in coaching and administration.
The 23-year-old Driscoll is a native of Connellsville, Pa., and a 2001 graduate of Connellsville High School. After placing third as a high school junior, Driscoll claimed the 2001 PIAA State Championship at 135 pounds. He went 140-20 with 97 pins, and capped his high school career by earning Outstanding Wrestler honors at the prestigious Dapper Dan Classic.
