Bio

A record-setting football running back and third-place finisher in the state high school wrestling tournament for Mt. Carmel High School, Jack Duby was a two-time Community College All-American at 150 pounds at Palomar under coach John Woods. He placed second in the state in 1983 and was the 1984 state champion, posting a 34-0 win-loss record with 142 takedowns and zero takedowns against. He accepted a scholarship to LSU, then moved on to the University of New Mexico when LSU dropped wrestling. He won a conference title for the Lobos and qualified for the NCAA Division I National Tournament but had to scratch because of an injury. He received his Bachelor's degree from New Mexico. Duby's final competition was in 1995, when he placed first at the U.S.Army Wrestling Championships. A career officer, Major Duby is an operational planner at the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk, Lousiana
