Head Coach Ben DeMaagd

My name is Ben DeMaagd.  I have been coaching for 11 years. I teach science at Crestwood Middle School.  I am married to my wife Jen and we have two children.  I wrestled at East Kentwood and graduated in 2004.  I fell in love with the excitement of facilitating a program where young men can find success and a philosophy for their life through competing in the toughest sport in the world.  I love the wrestling community at EK and the support from a great coaching staff and administration.

Favorite Takedown:  Front Head Lock Series.
