Were any of you aware that Adolph Rupp taught / coached at Marshalltown? His second job.


Ironically he coached wrestling and led Marshalltown to a state title in 1926.

Rupp began his career in coaching by accepting a teaching job at Burr Oak High School, Kansas. After a one-year stay, Rupp moved on to Marshalltown, Iowa, where he coached wrestling, a sport he knew nothing about at the time and learned from a book. He led the Marshalltown team to a state wrestling title in 1926
