Tune in every Wednesday to listen to ASK KOLAT. Hear 2000 Sydney Games US Team Member, World Medalist, and 2x NCAA Champion Cary Kolat answer questions from wrestlers, coaches, and parents. Kolat relies on a lifetime of wrestling and career of coaching from youth to college to international. Ask your own questions in the comments or on social media using #AskKolat.
Cary Kolat breaks down how to transition from youth wrestling to high school, from high school to college wrestling, and from college to the senior level. The main difference going from youth to high school is you see the kids who have been specializing in wrestling and the kids that have done numerous sports or just started wrestling. Finding a club to get extra practice and coaching from can help you catch up or get ahead. The biggest gap is transitioning to college as a student-athlete from high school. There are only 77 division 1 wrestling programs with an average roster of about 30 wrestlers. It's a very small pool of people that will ever make a World or Olympic team. Wrestling at the senior level requires an entirely different mindset. You have to be open to the possibility of losing. Kolat had 3-4 training partners rotate so he could wrestle against fresh guys. This would give him a simulation of what it will be like when he's in a tournament exhausted.
