FORT WORTH, TX - Over the weekend, Quincy Monday, Princeton wrestling alumnus and assistant coach, showcased his wrestling prowess at the 2023 Wrestling Senior Nationals held at the Fort Worth Convention Center in Texas. Making a seamless transition from collegiate wrestling to the senior level, Monday asserted his dominance on the mat, securing two decisive wins by decision and two more victories by tech fall. Completing the weekend undefeated, Monday claimed the 74 kg title by defeating Alex Marinelli (HWC/TMWC) with a 14-2 tech fall, subsequently earning qualification for the US Olympic Trials.
"Winning senior nationals this weekend was the next step on my journey for my Olympic aspirations, as it qualifies me for the Olympic Trials in April." said Quincy Monday. "It's so special to be able to continue to compete and train out of the Princeton room while also coaching the college team. The energy is very high and the team inspires me to keep competing with passion and intensity, representing the Princeton wrestling brand: TOUGH, AGGRESSIVE, and EXCITING."
"Quincy's Senior National title win is a significant achievement, although not entirely unexpected," said head coach Joe Dubuque. "He's made such a quick transition to the senior level, and it's going to be scary to see how much further he can improve by April. This accomplishment holds great importance for our program. We get to witness a graduate of our system excel at the senior level immediately after receiving the finest education in the country and that's truly gratifying. Recruits will recognize that pursuing their Olympic aspirations doesn't mean putting them on hold when choosing Princeton."
