Like many of the kids that progress through our program, Coach James did not begin wrestling until he was in high school. In addition to wrestling in high school he also wrestled at Cypress College and for a brief stint in the Marine Corps. Coach James tries to instill in our kids many of the same character traits that were forged from his wrestling and military experiences. To this end, the kids have always come first.
Coach James is married to a beautiful woman, Melissa, whose unconditional and unwavering support has allowed him to spend uncountable hours away from home working with our BOHS wrestling family. Coach James and Melissa are blessed with three children, Kryslin Skylar, Braeden Thomas, and Landon Leo.
In addition to coaching Coach James also teaches at California State University Fullerton, for the Department of Kinesiology. Coach James has begun the final phase for earning his doctoral degree – the dreaded dissertation.
