Nick Matt named Head Varsity Wrestling Coach

Newly appointed CHS Head
Wrestling Coach Nick Matt

The CHS Athletic Department is proud to announce the hiring of CHS alumnus Nick Matt as our new Varsity Wrestling Coach. 

Matt served as an assistant coach to Coach Dave DelPico during the 2021-22 season. He was a three-year wrestler at CHS who served as a captain during his senior year.  Matt brings with him to this position, a passion for the sport and a great appreciation of the history and tradition of CHS Wrestling.  During his days on the Bulldog mat, he was a sectional finalist and placed at the States and was the first heavyweight in CHS Wrestling history to qualify for the All-State Tournament. 

Matt, who is currently a senior at Bridgewater State University, had this to say upon the official announcement- "I am both honored and ecstatic, to be named the new head coach of the Canton High School Wrestling program. I look forward to carrying on the traditions and legacy of the Canton wrestling program while creating new ones."

The CHS Athletic Department wishes coach Matt and the entire CHS Wrestling team, the best of luck in helping to write the next chapter in this program's proud history.
