Edmond Memorial has named Will Evans head wrestling coach, bringing three decades of Oklahoma wrestling and a track record of rebuilding programs to a Bulldog room with forty-four state champions in its history.

Evans arrives from Westmoore, where he spent eight seasons and turned the program around from the ground up. The clearest measure of that work isn't a bracket — it's the room. His first parent meeting at Westmoore drew six people, players and parents combined. His last drew two hundred, junior high through high school, boys and girls. In 2023 the Oklahoma chapter of the National Wrestling Coaches Association named him Class 6A Head Coach of the Year.

The results followed the participation. Westmoore went into the 2024–25 season returning nine state qualifiers and two state placers, and put multiple wrestlers on Fargo National Teams, including All-American Trae Rios.

Evans began his career in 1995 as a teacher and wrestling coach at Sapulpa, then spent nine years at Bristow — another program he rebuilt — before taking over at Westmoore. He returned to Sapulpa as head coach in 2025 before coming to Edmond.

He inherits a program with deep history and a full room, and a schedule that opens at home with the Pre-Turkey Open on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

“We're not just building wrestlers here — we're building young men who work hard, show up for each other, and finish what they start, on the mat and off it.”

— Coach Will Evans
