Nicholas Pezzano Wrestling; Returns to host a wrestling clinic where it all started 25 years ago

Belleville Recreation wrestler in 1999-2000, Army Veteran, former Passaic Valley High School wrestling standout. 2x NJ Medalist and 123-20.

Coach Nick returns to Belleville 25 plus years later to host a Community Wrestling Clinic for boy and girl wrestlers. In a world where opportunities like this are rare we are grateful to have Coach Nicholas Pezzano return to teach the wrestlers the skills he learned. Coach Nick started his own club during his time after his competing days in High school and DelVal University. His creation still goes on today, Eagle Eye Wrestling.

These opportunities were created by Coaches like Nick who welcomes all wrestlers alike from residents to non residents of Belleville. If you like wrestling you had to be there!

Thank you for Nick's learning experience and the relationships he made goes beyond the mats.
