BOLIVAR — The Taylor family and Bolivar-Richburg wrestling
have started to become synonymous.
When Todd Taylor first took over in 2007, the program was a
shell of what it has grown into now. Like many other small schools in New York
state, B-R struggled to draw a large number of athletes to the sport.
After a two-year hiatus from 2009-10, Taylor has been the
head coach of Wolverine wrestling since 2011. Now, with the help of his sons,
Andrew and Obert, Taylor has turned B-R into one of the Southern Tier’s premier
wrestling programs. And in his 10th year as coach, Taylor was named the Big 30
Wrestling Coach of the Year.
The Taylor-led Wolverines had a historic 2019-20 season,
three-peating as champions of their Section 5 class, sending three athletes to
the New York State tournament and placing a wrestler in the state finals for
the first time ever. Read the full story HERE.
