Hawkeye Report Podcast with Clarissa Chun
We have a special edition of the podcast as we are joined by Iowa women’s wrestling head coach Clarissa Chun. Tom Kakert and Tanner LaFever discuss a variety of topics with Coach Chun, starting with building a program from the ground floor and how she has done that and what she learned along the way.
We also discuss the growth of women’s wrestling on a national and local level and what that means to her, having a pair of the top wrestlers in the country show up in her program this summer to be part of the team, the impact of the new wrestling facility on the program and how attracting talent to Iowa City creates and iron sharpening iron mentality in the program.
Also we look at the development of the Iowa women’s wrestling club and support that they are starting to provide along with athletes seeking out developing their own NIL opportunities at Iowa.
