BURNSVILLE, Minn.– Augustana wrestling head coach Jason Reitmeier has been named the NSIC Coach of the Year, announced by the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference on Thursday morning.
Reitmeier led the Vikings to the most conference wins in his coaching career this season. In the conference, the Vikings finished 8-1 and were runners-up in the NSIC. The Vikings then finished second at the NCAA Division II Region V Championships.
