    Nate Carr Jr. named assistant coach at Lock Haven

    LOCK HAVEN, Pa. -- Nate Carr Jr. has been named the new Lock Haven University assistant wrestling coach.

    Carr, a 2012 graduate of Iowa State, is a former standout wrestler for the Cyclones.

    Most recently, Carr has spent the last two years with the Finger Lakes Wrestling Club in Ithaca, New York. As a senior level athlete and coach at the Finger Lakes Wrestling Club, Carr has also spent time working with the nearby NCAA Division I Cornell wrestling program.

    Cornell finished in the top-10 at the NCAA Tournaments in each of the last two seasons.

    Prior to his time in Ithaca, Carr spent time on both the University of Maryland and University of Virginia coaching staffs.

    Before joining the Iowa State wrestling program as a student-athlete, Carr was a 2007 National Junior College Champion at Iowa Central Community College. At Iowa State, he was a two-year starter. Carr was a 2010 United States Freestyle All-American and finished as runner-up at the 2015 Canada Cup.

    He graduated from Iowa State with a Bachelor of Liberal Studies in 2012.

    Carr's father, Nate Carr, Sr. was a three-time NCAA champion at Iowa State and won a bronze medal while competing for Team USA at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, South Korea.

    LHU head coach Scott Moore is excited about the addition of Carr to the Bald Eagle staff.

    "Nate is a great addition to the staff and I'm looking forward to him getting here," said Moore. "The LHU wrestling program is certainly back on the map in a big way and Nate will help us continue our climb. His recent experience working with some of the best coaches in the country will certainly make an impact here at Lock Haven."

    Carr is looking forward to his start in The Haven.

    "I'm excited about joining the Lock Haven University wrestling program," said Carr. "I am looking forward to helping these young men achieve their goals both on and off the mats. Lock Haven wrestling has a rich tradition of winning and competing at a high level, and it will be an honor to help continue that tradition alongside coach Moore."
