PETITION TO REINSTATE ADAM LYNCH AS HEAD COACH OF THE OHIO COUNTY KY VARSITY WRESTLING TEAM

02/29/2024 – 03/28/2024

Attention: Ohio County Board of Education 

The supporters whose name you will find signed on this petition request Adam Lynch be reinstated immediately as Head Coach of the Ohio County, KY Varsity Wrestling Team. 

As members of the wrestling community, and caregivers of these student athletes, we fully support Coach Lynch and feel strongly that losing him as the leader will be a drastic setback to the Ohio County Wrestling program, and will negatively impact the young men and women on the team.

Reinstating Adam Lynch as Head Coach matters to us because we believe he has proven himself as a competent and successful leader. Mr. Lynch has consistently demonstrated a genuine care and concern for the student athletes, and has the background and the attitude to teach the technical excellence and spirit of determination required for wrestling proficiency.

The majority of members of the program, including associate coaches, caregivers, and students are greatly saddened by and disappointed by the decision to force his resignation as a means to incriminate someone for the unfortunate actions of a handful of juveniles. The unauthorized actions of these students have already been reprimanded, which we believe to be sufficient. The removal of our seasoned Head Coach will achieve nothing more than hurting our kids and our program.

We request Adam Lynch be immediately reinstated as Head Coach.
