Richard Perry - PRTC Senior Athlete

from Philly Wrestling · host Kevin McGuigan

Richard Perry first started wrestling at his high school in Connecticut. He learned quickly how to succeed on the mat. The 2x State Champion went on to Bloomsburg University where he had over 100 wins and was a 3x NCAA Division 1 Championship Qualifier. He began his international career and took a quick trajectory towards freestyle success. After qualifying to be on the 2018 USA Wrestling National Team, Richard suffered a traumatic brain injury during a training exercise at Camp Pendleton, California. As he continues his rehabilitation from that tragic accident, Richard shares his story of being an overcomer and what it means to be a part of the Pennsylvania Regional Training Center. #RichardPerry #OlympicWrestling #USAWrestling #Overcomer #PRTC #PhillyWrestling
