Mason Goretsas - 2026 Week 5 Clinic
Advertisement
Week 5 Clinic run by McDaniel College Head Coach, Mason Goretsas.
"Goretsas was elevated to head coach of the Green Terror for the 2018-19 season after spending the previous four years as an assistant coach and successful career on the mat.
In his first season as head coach, the Green Terror won 10 dual matches, reaching double-digit wins for just the second time since 2005-06. He made it back-to-back 10-win campaigns in 2019-20, guiding a lineup that had six rookies in the postseason lineup. He guided Ryker Eckenbarger to the conference title at 141 and tournament’s Most Outstanding Performer award.
A local product, Goretsas was a two-time Maryland State Champion for North Carroll High School before starting his collegiate career at the University of Maryland. Goretsas returned home in the fall of 2011. He wrestled for the Green Terror for three seasons, posting a 67-27 record at McDaniel. He was a two-time place finisher at the Centennial Conference championship. He finished fourth at 141 in 2012 before also earning a fourth-place showing at 149 in 2014.
Goretsas graduated from McDaniel with his bachelor of science degree in exercise science in 205 and completed his masters in kinesiology in 2018. He and his wife, Kelsey – a member of the Green Terror women’s basketball team during her undergraduate days at McDaniel – welcomed their first child, Bo, in November 2019." - McDaniel Wrestling Coach Biography
This will be Coach Goretsas' fourth visit to the MSWL and between him and former McDaniel Head Coach, Davey Blake, the MSWL has developed a nice little pipeline to McDaniel! Over a half dozen MSWL wrestlers have gone on to compete for McDaniel in the past few years and Coach Goretsas lead two former MSWL wrestlers, Xavier Howard(AA) and Jaedyn Harris to the D3 National Championships three years ago. We're always excited when we're able to get him back for another clinic and hopefully continue the pipeline!
