September 13, 2007
St. Cloud, Minn. - Luke Becker, a four-time All-American and an NCAA
Division I national champion at 157-pounds in 2002, will be the guest
clinician at the 2007 St. Cloud State University
Husky Fall Wrestling Clinic, which will take place on Saturday, Oct.
27, in the Halenbeck Hall Fieldhouse. Becker will replace
Cole Konrad as the event’s guest clinician, since Konrad will be
competing at the upcoming Sunkist International Open in Chandler, Ariz.
This informative all-day clinic will start with check-in between 8 a.m.
and 9 a.m., and it is open to all individuals from first grade to 12th
grade. The final session of the day will conclude at 3:15
p.m. The cost of the clinic is $45, and the fee includes three
sessions of expert instruction, a clinic t-shirt and lunch. A
special team rate of $40 per person is available for teams that
register 10 or more wrestlers for the clinic.
The clinic will feature Becker as its guest clinician. As a
member of the University of Minnesota wrestling team, Becker helped the
Gophers win national team titles in 2001 and 2002. He gained NCAA
All-America honors four times during his collegiate career with fourth
place finishes at 157-pounds in 2001 and 2003, and a sixth place finish
at 157-pounds in 2000. Becker won two individual Big Ten
Conference titles, and he was a three-time Minnesota State High School
state champion at Cambridge-Isanti High School. Becker currently
serves as an assistant coach at the Unversity of Minnesota under head
coach J Robinson.
