Talking Wrestling with Burke Paddock

About this episode

Burke Paddock discusses his wrestling career and current role at the USAFA Prep School.

Burke Paddock will be the first to tell you he came up short during his career. But he knows he’s not simply defined by his wrestling accolades. A 2x NY state champ and 5x state placewinner, Burke wrestled at Iowa for 2 years. He was a World Team Trials runner-up in both freestyle and greco and also placed 4th at the U.S. Open in 2023. Burke is now helping out at the USAFA Prep School and living in Colorado Springs.
