WRESTLING: Wood's Stanley makes a return to La Salle

By Dennis C. Way

There was no mistaking the man in the designer suit coaching wrestling at La Salle High Thursday night.

Hall of Fame wrestling coach Vic Stanley, who has retired from the sport he loves more times than six professional boxers, is back doing what he does best.

Only these days Stanley is shouting instructions to a team wearing the black and gold of Archbishop Wood.

The 72-year-old Stanley, who retired from coaching in 2011 following six seasons at La Salle, was back in familiar territory Thursday, and he was also among friends, including a who’s-who of La Salle wrestlers from the past decade.
