RALEIGH – Wrestling's associate head coach, Adam Hall, has been named as the next head coach at Utah Valley, as announced on Thursday.
After nine seasons with the Wolfpack Wrestling team, Adam Hall has accepted the position of head coach at Utah Valley following the 2024 NCAA Tournament. This announcement comes after current head coach, Greg Williams, has decided to step down to retire after leading the program since the 2006-07 season.
The Idaho native was promoted to his current role prior to the 2019-20 season. During his time in Raleigh he has helped coach the program to six ACC titles, seven top-20 team NCAA finishes, and five top-10 recruiting classes in the last seven years. In just his first season with the Wolfpack, Hall helped NC State to one of its best seasons in 2015-16. NC State won the 2016 ACC Championship, the first at NC State since 2007.
Prior to his stint at NC State, Hall began his collegiate coaching career at Columbia for four years as an assistant coach. During that time he also earned his Master of Science in Sport Management in 2015.
His experience comes from his time as a two-time All-American and two-time PAC-10 Champion at Boise State from 2007-2011, in addition to qualifying for the NCAA Tournament all four years of his collegiate career. His senior year he was named the PAC-10 Wrestling Scholar-Athlete of the Year. Hall even had the opportunity to represent the U.S. when he finished fifth at the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Trials.
