  6. Zeke Jones Bio Sun Devil Wrestling Sun Devil wrestling head coach Zeke Jones enters his fifth season at the helm of the program and in just three and a half years has completely changed the face of ASU wrestling. Arizona State Vice President for University Athletics and Athletics Director Ray Anderson signed Jones to a contract that will keep him at ASU until 2021. A former Sun Devil, Jones was a three-time All-American and national runner-up as a collegiate wrestler, as well as a member of the 1988 ASU national championship team. An Olympic silver medalist himself, Jones served as head coach of the United States Freestyle Wrestling Team, coaching U.S. Olympians in the 1996, 2000, 2004, 2012, and 2016 Olympic games. Jones led his alma mater to its 18th Pac-10/12 championship (20th conference title including two Western Athletic Conference titles) in 2018 behind six individual champions in Ali Naser (133), Jason Tsirtsis (149), Josh Shields (157), Anthony Valencia (165), Zahid Valencia (174), and Kordell Norfleet (184). The Sun Devils also earned their highest finish (10th) at NCAA’s since 2011 in 2017-18. He has won four World Cup Gold medals and was selected The World’s Most Technical Wrestler, one of only three Americans ever to receive the award, by United World Wrestling, the international governing body for the sport of wrestling. Jones was Anderson’s first coaching hire, starting a long line of highly touted coaching hires at Arizona State that includes the likes of Bob Bowman (men’s and women’s swimming), Bobby Hurley (men’s bas- ketball), and Cliff English (women’s triathlon). “It is important we retain our high-caliber coaching hires and, without a doubt, Coach Jones has made a huge impact in his three years at Arizona State,” says Anderson. Already building an impressive resume at the ASU helm, Jones’ first full recruiting class, including heavy- weight Tanner Hall and brothers Zahid and Anthony Valencia, was tabbed the No. 1 recruiting class by D1CollegeWrestling.Net, FloWrestling, Intermat, and WIN Magazine. He continues to attract the nation’s top student-athletes, adding for 2018-19 the likes of Jacori Teemer, five-time New York state champion and Mason Smith, two-time NCAA qualifier from Central Michigan. In just three and a half years, he has also signed five No. 1 recruits in their perspective weights and eight that were ranked in the top 10 pound for pound. In addition, the Sun Devils have added eight cadet and junior world team members since Jones arrived. Academics have also been a high priority with Jones at the helm as several members of the current roster are part of Barrett Honors College, one of the nation’s top honors colleges. 6

Overall, three Sun Devils have represented their home nation in the Olympics on multiple occasions, including Saunders (1996 and 1992), Henderson (1996 and 1992) and Billy Rosado (1980 and 1976). Among the success of those Sun Devils are the two silver medals won by Saunders in 1996 and Zeke Jones in 1992. Seven times, a Sun Devil has placed in the Games, including Gary Bohay, who took eighth in 1988 for Canada.

  40. Sun Devils in MMA Sun Devil Wrestling In the world of MMA (mixed martial arts), the Sun Devil wrestling program has continually produced some of the top talents in the sport, both now and in the past. While former Sun Devils have held championship belts in the past, including UFC Heavyweight Champion Dan ‘The Beast’ Severn and Pride Welterweight and Middleweight (at the same time) Champion ‘Dangerous’ Dan Henderson, the current crop of talent is already turning heads. The trio of talented newcomers includes three Sun Devils that earned All-America honors at the 2006 NCAA Championships: Cain Velasquez, C.B. Dollaway and Ryan Bader. In October 2010, Velasquez’ rise to the top culminated with his TKO of Brock Lesnar at UFC 121 where he downed the defending champion and captured the belt to become the UFC World Heavyweight Champion. Velasquez is the first Sun Devil to hold a belt (in the current system of non-tournament fighting) and also is the first fighter of Mexican heritage to hold a title in any major organization. In Arizona, a trio of former Sun Devil All-Americans are continuing to evolve the sport, not only as fighters, but as trainers. Bader, the TUF Season 8 winner, Dollaway, known as ‘The Doberman’ and the TUF Season 7 runner-up, and their former coach Aaron ‘A-Train’ Simpson still train in the Valley and are in the process of opening their own gym in Gilbert. All three are fighters in the UFC, including ‘Darth’ Bader, who remains undefeated in the light heavyweight division. Historically, two Severn and Henderson have held distinctions that no other fighters have. Severn is the only UFC Triple Crown winner -- won a UFC tourna- ment (UFC 5), the Ultimate Ultimate Tournament and the UFC Superfight -- while Henderson, who has recently transitioned into the UFC, was a Pride Champion at two weight classes at the same time (middleweight and light heavyweight), the only fighter in Pride’s history to hold two belts at one time. Here is a list of the others that have participated in MMA (past & present): UFC World Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez Sun Devil Ryan ‘Darth’ Bader C.B. ‘The Doberman’ Dollaway Chance Farrar Kellan Fluckiger Don ‘The Predator’ Frye Dan ‘Hendo’ Henderson Rex ‘Big Dog’ Holman Eric Larkin Townsend Saunders Dan ‘The Beast’ Severn Aaron ‘A-Train’ Simpson Cain Velasquez Bubba Jenkins Thom Ortiz Organization UFC UFC WEC BODOG UFC/Pride UFC/Pride/Strikeforce UFC Bellator UFC UFC WEC/UFC UFC UFC UFC at ASU 2002-06 2004-06 1995-97 1998-03 1984-87 1992-93 1989-91 1999-03 1988-90 1976-81 1993-98 2003-06 2010-11 1987-90 PRIDE Champion Dan ‘Hendo’ Henderson UFC Hall of Famer Dan “The Beast” Severn “The Ultimate Fighter” Ryan “Darth” Bader 40

  41. Family Legacy Sun Devil Wrestling Families have played a key role in the development of Arizona State’s wrestling program, and not just in the sense of former wrestlers coming back to coach the current members. To date, 31 different families have had multiple members of their family on a Sun Devil wrestler roster, including Anthony and Zahid Valencia. Although most families represented are brothers, there has been one deep-rooted tradition at ASU with the father-sons combination of Glenn Sr., Glenn Jr., Wayne and Rob McMinn. Together, they competed for the Sun Devils in three different decades. To date, the Jeffries (Jim, John, Randy, Ron & Tim) have the most family members to wrestle for ASU with the Severns (Dan, Dave, Mike & Rod) right behind them with four members.

  42. Honors and Awards Sun Devil Wrestling THE DAN HODGE AWARD The Dan Hodge Award, considered the Heisman Trophy of collegiate wrestling, is given annually to the most domi- nating and undefeated wrestler in the nation. In 2003, Eric Larkin went 34-0 en route to the NCAA title at 149 pounds, as well as his fourth Pac-12 title, to earn the Hodge and cap a stellar senior campaign in Tempe. Larkin was only the third Pac-12 wrestler to earn the award first given in 1995, following Stephen Neal of CS Bakers- field in 1999 and Oregon State’s Les Gutches in 1996. The Hodge, named for legendary Oklahoma Sooner wrestler Dan Hodge, takes into consideration a wrestler’s dominance on the mat, his number of pins, his overall record, past credentials, the quality of competition he faces, his sportsmanship, his citizenship and his heart. Hodge exemplified all those things, going 46-0 in his collegiate career and winning three national titles (1955-57) while never surrendering a takedown to any opponent. 1969 1968 1967 1965 1964 1963 PAC-12 WRESTLER OF THE YEAR 2018 Zahid Valencia 2017 Zahid Valencia 2015 Blake Stauffer 2011 Anthony Robles 2009 Anthony Robles 2005 Cain Velasquez 2003 Eric Larkin 2002 Eric Larkin 2001 Eric Larkin 2000 Steve Blackford 1993 Ray Miller 1992 Ray Miller 1990 Dan St. John 1989 Dan St. John 1988 Mike Davies 1987 Mike Davies 1986 Adam Cohen 1985 Eddie Urbano 1983 Gary Bohay 1979 Bill Cripps PAC-12 COACH OF THE YEAR 2018 Zeke Jones 2017 Zeke Jones 2011 Shawn Charles 2006 Thom Ortiz 2005 Thom Ortiz 2003 Thom Ortiz 2001 Lee Roy Smith 1998 Lee Roy Smith 1997 Lee Roy Smith 1993 Lee Roy Smith 1990 Bobby Douglas 1989 Bobby Douglas 1988 Bobby Douglas 1987 Bobby Douglas 1986 Bobby Douglas 1985 Bobby Douglas 1981 Bobby Douglas 1979 Bobby Douglas Rick Cahill Curley Culp Curley Culp Glenn McMinn, Sr. Buzz Hayes Dave Greer HWT HWT HWT 115 147 137 Smart, Rocky Suter, Matt Trulson, Jason 2003 1995 ASU WRESTLER OF THE YEAR 2018 Zahid Valencia 2017 Zahid Valencia 2011 Anthony Robles Bubba Jenkins 2010 Anthony Robles 2009 Anthony Robles 2008 Patrick Pitsch 2007 Brian Stith 2006 Brian Stith 2005 Cain Velasquez 2004 Ryan Bader 2003 Eric Larkin 2002 Eric Larkin 2001 Eric Larkin 2000 Steve Blackford 1999 Eric Larkin 1998 Aaron Simpson 1997 Casey Strand 1996 Markus Mollica 1995 Markus Mollica 1994 Steve St. John 1993 Ray Miller 1992 Shawn Charles 1991 Ray Miller 1990 Dan St. John 1989 Dan St. John 1988 Mike Davies 1987 Mike Davies 1986 Adam Cohen 1985 Eddie Urbano 1984 Eddie Urbano 1983 Gary Bohay 1982 Jackson Kistler 1981 Dan Severn 1980 Dan Severn 1979 Dave Severn 1978 Don Shuler 1977 Ricky Reed 1976 Roye Oliver 1975 Bruce Young 1974 Tom Jeffries 1973 Bob Vargas 1972 Kelly Trujillo 1971 Gary Coley 1970 Gary Seymour OUTSTANDING WRESTLER AT PAC-12 CHAMPIONSHIPS 2017 Zahid Valencia 2009 Anthony Robles 2005 Brian Stith 2003 Eric Larkin 2002 Eric Larkin 1990 Dan St. John 1988 Dan St. John 1986 Adam Cohen 1985 Eddie Urbano 1983 Gary Bohay 1979 Bill Cripps PAC-12 MEDAL OF HONOR 2003 Eric Larkin 1990 Dan St. John 1983 Gary Bohay 1981 Dan Severn 1980 Dave Severn PAC-12 SCHOLAR-ATHLETE OF THE YEAR 2015 Chace Eskam 2013 Jake Meredith ACADEMIC ALL-PAC-12 First Team Anaya, Arturo Carpio, Ares Dagy, Micah Drouin, Chris Eskam, Chace Etukeren, Imanibom Frost, Nick Fukumoto, Tai Gressley, Tim Griswold, Sean Hall, Tanner Holman, Rex McMinn, Wayne Meredith, Jake Millhof, Ryan Owen, Curtis Perryman, Mark Ray, Curtis Rico, Ted 2017 Sage, Tyler Simpson, Aaron 174 174 125 157 125 125 165 157 157 HWT 197 149 141 141 165 133 177 167 167 167 134 167 126 158 167 158 190 190 150 150 150 126 158 HWT 190 177 177 126 150 177 134 118 142 150 HWT 174 125 157 149 141 167 158 150 150 126 142 2006, 2007, 2008 Second Team Albarracin, Eric Carpio, Ares Castillo, Chris Drouin, Chris Friedman, Adam Frost, Nick Hawkins, Michael Hyman, Dan Leydecker, Randy McMinn, Wayne Meredith, Jake Pruett, Quinton Shields, Josh Simpson, Aaron Smart, Rocky Swanson, Andy Swigart, Michael 1995 2014 1995 174 174 184 125 125 HWT 149 141 141 165 167 158 167 158 190 190 150 150 126 142 2008, 2009 1997 2002, 2004 2010, 2011 2000 2000 1993 2011 2008 2018 1997, 1998 2002 2001 2010 Honorable Mention Carpio, Ares Crooks, Cory Gaughan, Kevin Harris, Austyn Kramer, Josh Kraus, Matt Owen, Curtis Payne, Pat Pierce, Oliver Pruett, Quinton Ray, Curtis Shields, Josh Stauffer, Blake Valencia, Anthony Varela, Vicente 2015 2018 2006, 2007 2017, 2018 2017, 2018 1999, 2000 2016 1999 2010 2015 2001 2014, 2015 2006, 2007 2009 2003 2011 1991 1991 2016 2006, 2007 2005 2017 2016 2017, 2018 2017, 2018 2009, 2010 1991 1992 2013 2018 2003 1999, 2000 2004 2017 1996 42

  45. Pres. Crow/Ray Anderson Sun Devil Wrestling Michael M. Crow became the 16th president of ASU in 2002 and under his leadership, the Wall Street Journal named ASU in the top five for producing career-ready graduates who succeed in business. He is committed to Arizona State being a “New American University”, one that combines academic excellence, inclusiveness, and societal impact. Time Magazine named Crow one of the Top 10 col- lege presidents in the United States. Crow understands the importance of athletics as part of the academic experience, as he was a heavyweight wrestler and football player in high school and competed in track and field at Iowa State. Crow on Zeke Jones: “I said to Ray, either we’re going to have a wrestling team that’s going to compete for national championships or we’re not going to have a wrestling team so you need to find the best person in the world to be our coach. Zeke Jones is our coach: Multi-time world champi- on in wrestling, NCAA champion, ASU graduate; and at the time that Ray hired him, sitting Olympic coach for the United States Olympic Team in wrestling, former coach at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. That is the person; the personage, the kind of character that we are looking for.” Ray Anderson was named ASU VP for University Athletics and Athletics Director on Jan. 9, 2014. Since his arrival, he has made revolutionary changes to the Arizona State athletics department, adding sports in an industry that trends toward dropping them, with the addition of men’s ice hockey, women’s lacrosse, men’s tennis, and women’s triathlon. He has also hired multiple notable head coaches in Bob Bowman, Cliff English, Zeke Jones, and Bobby Hurley, to name a few. Prior to ASU, Anderson served as executive VP and chief administrative officer of the Atlanta Falcons as well as in the sports agency business and as an attorney. Anderson on Zeke Jones: “It is important we retain our high-caliber coaching hires and, without a doubt, Coach Jones has made a huge impact in his three years at Arizona State. He consistently demands high academic commitment and athletic dedication from our student-athletes and he and his staff worked tirelessly to recruit one of the top-rated recruiting classes in college wrestling history.” 45
