Last weekend outgoing wrestling coach Gary Franke was honored by and inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame. It was an outstanding night filled with great honorees and some great W&L Alumni. We are all so very proud of Coach for his hard work and efforts over the years and were proud to attend this great event. Here are some photos of "The HOF"
