History
The Bulls won the 1978 NCAA Division III National Championship over Millersville by a score of 91.75 to 90. Most notably, the Bulls didn't have a single wrestler earn an individual title in the win (Mike Jacoutot had the highest finish, placing 2nd in the 126 weight class). [3]
After graduating from the University of Iowa, Paul Bradley coached wrestling at the University of Buffalo and Indiana University before transitioning into mixed martial arts.[4]
