    Grahn to be honored by National Wrestling Hall of Fame

    The Oregon chapter of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame has announced that Portland State head coach Marlin Grahn, along with five other Oregon coaches, will be inducted on April 29 to honor their lifetime service to wrestling. Grahn has spent his entire career both as a wrestler and as a coach at Portland State.

    Marlin Grahn
    Grahn, was a Viking assistant coach from 1973 to 1983. In 1984, Grahn became Portland State's head coach, where he has remained until the present time. In 33 years, Grahn has coached 40 All-Americans and eight individual NCAA Division II national champions. His teams placed in the top five nationally four times, winning two national titles and finishing in second once.

    Grahn, along with his fellow inductees, will join 53 Oregon coaches who have previously been enshrined.

    The Honors Banquet will take place at the Holiday Inn Portland South in Wilsonville, Ore., on the night of the 29th. A no-host social will start at 5 p.m., followed by the banquet at 6:30 p.m.
