    Kelly, a native of Atwater, Calif., has served as a coach for the Dallas Dynamite Wrestling Club since 2008. He has also been involved with USA Wrestling and the Gator Wrestling Club. Over the past year, Kelly has guided U.S. teams in overseas tours to Iran, France, and Russia. In addition to his wrestling coaching duties, Kelly has worked with several MMA fighters, including past NCAA wrestling All-Americans Gray Maynard and Shane Roller, in training camps.

    Kelly was an assistant coach at Harvard during the 2006-07 season. Prior to that stint, he worked as an administrative assistant at Oklahoma State and coached the Cowboy Wrestling Club.

    Kelly is a 2000 graduate of Oklahoma State. He made his first U.S. World Team in 2003, and a year later captured a silver medal at the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. Kelly was also a four-time U.S. National Team member and 2003 Pan-American Games silver medalist.
