Quotes from Fox Chapel coach Ron Frank: “Andrew began in our elementary program. He’s been a silent hero in the background for us. His forte is on top. He’s good at riding and turning his opponent for back points. He works hard in every practice and attends several camps each summer to improve his technique. He really loves the sport and would like to wrestle in college.”
