Caden Kirchner

I started wrestling at five years old and grew up with the sport as a central part of my life. From my earliest days on the mat, I fell in love with the competition and the values wrestling instilled in me.

In eighth grade, I had a major turning point when I qualified for state for the first time. That achievement proved to me that I could compete with the best kids in the state and motivated me to take wrestling seriously and train harder.

I currently attend the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater and compete at the collegiate level. I earned a fifth-place finish in the WIAC Conference, continuing to build on my competitive achievements.

I have coaching experience with the Arlington Cardinals Wrestling Club, ISI, and New Wave Wrestling Club. I bring my passion for the sport and dedication to excellence to Gorilla Lab, focusing on helping young athletes develop both on and off the mat.
