AJ Herrlein

With 9 years of coaching experience, I am passionate about developing young athletes in the sport of wrestling. In my free time, I love hanging out with my family, playing music, and hitting the golf course. I’m married to Meghan Herrlein, a dedicated 7th-grade history teacher at GMS, and together we have two energetic sons: John (3 years old) and Joey (2 years old).
