After four years of wrestling for Muhlenberg, Jake Gordon joined the staff as a volunteer assistant coach for the 2018-19 season.
Gordon won 51 bouts during his career, setting a school record with 10 technical falls. He came in third at 174 at the 2016 Centennial Conference Championships and went 20-16 as a junior, placing fifth at Messiah.Â
Gordon was equally accomplished off the mat, earning a prestigious NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship. He won the Muhlenberg Alumni Association Future Alumni Leader Award, the 2017 Paul M. White '27 Business Award and the 2018 Muhlenberg Goodwill Prize. Gordon co-founded DressedGPS, an online platform that allows students to rent or sell outfits to other students, an experience that helped him secure a competitive fellowship through Taglit Excel.
A two-year wrestling team captain, Gordon is currently pursuing a master of science in management at nearby Lehigh University.
