From Kansas www.usawks.com website:

Jimmy May was recently named the first head wrestling coach at Baker University. Over a 20 year period, Coach May built a nationally ranked program at Eldorado High School in Las Vegas, Nevada. Ranked the 4th most successful high school wrestling program in the country, the ?Dynasty in the Desert? won 12 AAAA Nevada State Championships; 17 Regional Championships; 63 Individual State Champions; 19 All-Americans and a dual record of 317-20-2.

That's good move for Baker U. I managed to get a wrestling beat down by the hands of Akin once and I can honestly say, he knows his stuff.

Totally agree, there was some discord in Kansas over Eric not getting the head job, but he was all class in how he dealt with it. I was speaking to Coach May a few days ago and told him I think he made a great move in getting Eric. To this day, Eric is one of the nicest guys, and one of the best hand fighters in regards to wrestling I have ever seen. Then Coach May is a great pick up in his own right. Baker should make immediate strides in the NAIA

Akin is a great coach and I'm sure will prove to be a huge asset in terms of recruiting lightweights. Yeay Eric!
