Justin Dwork

Justin is a well-traveled wrestler who has been trained by some of the best wrestlers in the world. He trained under Olympic Gold Medalist Kendall Cross throughout high school, where he represented Team Massachusetts at both the ASICS Fargo Junior Freestyle National Championships and the NHSCA Senior National Championships. He competed for four years at Ithaca College under coach Marty Nichols and Olympian Dave Auble, before spending four seasons building and coaching the University of Connecticut NCWA team. At UConn, Justin turned a virtually non-existent program into a top ten team by his second year with the program, successfully qualifying four wrestlers for the National tournament in each of the first two years. He has since spent his time applying his wrestling experience towards training, coaching, and competing in Mixed Martial Arts. He is a multiple time Northeast Grappling Tournament champion and 2-1 as a professional fighter.
