Episode 97 Zach Elam Former College Wrestler

Welcome back to another episode of the RU Strong Podcast, hosted by Jeff Durr, where grit meets greatness and athletes share their journey of resilience on and off the field.

Today’s guest is someone whose story embodies Tiger Styletoughness and Scarlet Knight pride. A two-time NCAA All-American, five-time NCAA qualifier, and Southern Scuffle Champion, he’s also a three-time Academic All-Big 12 selection, proving that excellence doesn’t stop on themat. A proud member of the 100-Win Club with 107 career victories, and the 2024 Tiger Style Most Outstanding Wrestler, he’s one of the most decorated heavyweights to ever wear the black and gold of Missouri wrestling.

Now calling Belmar, New Jersey home, Zach is training with the Scarlet Knight Wrestling Club at Rutgers University, embracing a new chapter surrounded by the beach, good food, and great competition. His journey from KansasCity to Columbia to Rutgers has been built on hard work, family, and faith, lessons learned from his longtime coach Brian Smith, his brother, and his own battle through injuries and adversity.

Tune in to hear how Zach Elam continues to live Tiger Style, now carrying that same championship mindset into his next phase with the Scarlet Knight Wrestling Club and beyond.
