Scot Davis, who has more than 1,200 career victories as a high school wrestling coach, was recently named the head wrestling coach at St. Paul Highland Park High School.
Davis most recently coached at Sandpoint High School in Sandpoint, Idaho, where his wife’s family lives.
“Red is my wife’s favorite color, and the school’s mascot name, the Scots, just felt like it was calling out for me,” Davis said of taking the coaching job. “It was also the type of school and location I haven’t coached in before. It will add a new experience to my resume.”
Davis has a career record of 1,205-209-4 in 43 years as a high school coach. In 25 years (1986-2011) at Owatonna High School, Davis led the Huskies to Class 3A state championships in 1998 and 2005 while compiling an 886-124-1 record.
