Zeke Jones Bio

Sun Devil Wrestling

Sun Devil wrestling head coach Zeke Jones enters his fifth season at the helm of the program and in just three and a half years has completely changed the face of ASU wrestling. Arizona State Vice President for University Athletics and Athletics Director Ray Anderson signed Jones to a contract that will keep him at ASU until 2021.

A former Sun Devil, Jones was a three-time All-American and national runner-up as a collegiate wrestler, as well as a member of the 1988 ASU national championship team. An Olympic silver medalist himself, Jones served as head coach of the United States Freestyle Wrestling Team, coaching U.S. Olympians in the 1996, 2000, 2004, 2012, and 2016 Olympic games.

Jones led his alma mater to its 18th Pac-10/12 championship (20th conference title including two Western Athletic Conference titles) in 2018 behind six individual champions in Ali Naser (133), Jason Tsirtsis (149), Josh Shields (157), Anthony Valencia (165), Zahid Valencia (174), and Kordell Norfleet (184).

The Sun Devils also earned their highest finish (10th) at NCAA’s since 2011 in 2017-18.

He has won four World Cup Gold medals and was selected The World’s Most Technical Wrestler, one of only three Americans ever to receive the award, by United World Wrestling, the international governing body for the sport of wrestling.

Jones was Anderson’s first coaching hire, starting a long line of highly touted coaching hires at Arizona State that includes the likes of Bob Bowman (men’s and women’s swimming), Bobby Hurley (men’s basketball), and Cliff English (women’s triathlon).

“It is important we retain our high-caliber coaching hires and, without a doubt, Coach Jones has made a huge impact in his three years at Arizona State,” says Anderson.

Already building an impressive resume at the ASU helm, Jones’ first full recruiting class, including heavyweight Tanner Hall and brothers Zahid and Anthony Valencia, was tabbed the No. 1 recruiting class by D1CollegeWrestling.Net, FloWrestling, Intermat, and WIN Magazine.

He continues to attract the nation’s top student-athletes, adding for 2018-19 the likes of Jacori Teemer, five-time New York state champion and Mason Smith, two-time NCAA qualifier from Central Michigan.

In just three and a half years, he has also signed five No. 1 recruits in their perspective weights and eight that were ranked in the top 10 pound for pound. In addition, the Sun Devils have added eight cadet and junior world team members since Jones arrived.

Academics have also been a high priority with Jones at the helm as several members of the current roster are part of Barrett Honors College, one of the nation’s top honors colleges.

The first four-time winner of the new millenium, Larkin moved through three weights for his awards. He made the natural progression from fourth as a freshman (133) to third as a sophomore (141) to second as a junior (141) before capping an undefeated senior year (149) with the national title and earning the Dan Hodge Award.

Miller was the program’s second fourtime Allt-American by viture of competing at a higher weight class than that of Charles with his honor in 1993. Miller finished fifth, fourth and second at 157 pounds before closing his career as the NCAA Champion at 167 pounds in 1993.

Mollica earned his four honors split between two weight classes and made two of his awards national championships. His awards were first then fifth at 158 before claiming gold then fourth at 167 pounds. He, along with Dan St. John, are the program’s lone multiple champions with both winning titles at two different weight classes.

Eight wrestlers that wore the maroon and gold of Arizona State University also have dawned the national colors of their native lands during Olympic competition. The Sun Devils have been a part of the Summer Games on six occasions with the most recent coming at the 1996 Atlanta Games. There, Team USA was represented by Rob Eiter, Townsend Saunders and Dan Henderson (all three of which placed in the Top 12 of the competitions) while Marco Sanchez represented Puerto Rico.

Overall, three Sun Devils have represented their home nation in the Olympics on multiple occasions, including Saunders (1996 and 1992), Henderson (1996 and 1992) and Billy Rosado (1980 and 1976). Among the success of those Sun Devils are the two silver medals won by Saunders in 1996 and Zeke Jones in 1992. Seven times, a Sun Devil has placed in the Games, including Gary Bohay, who took eighth in 1988 for Canada. At 2004 in Athens, Jones and Saunders represented Team USA on the sidelines with the freestyle teams as Jones served on the men’s staff while Saunders was on the inaugural women’s freestyle staff.

ZEKE JONES

TOWNSEND SAUNDERS

Zeke Jones became the first Sun Devil wrestler to medal at the Olympic Games as he took home the 52kg (114.5) freestyle silver medal at the 1992 Barcelona Games. Jones, the 1991 World Champion, easliy won his first two matches (15-0, 16-1) before slipping past Constantin Corduneanu (Romania) in the quarterfinals. Following his 9-5 defeat of Mitsura Sato, the 1988 Olympic champion, in the semifinal, Jones faced Hak-Sun Li (PRK) and dropped an 8-1 decision in the final for his lone loss of the tournament. Jones has been to one other Olympiad as he served as a coach for Team USA in Athens, Atlanta, Sydney, and London.

After finishing seventh in the 1992 Barcelona Games, Townsend Saunders was back on the Olympic mats in 1996 in Atlanta as he once again competed at 68kg (150.0) to become the program’s third, two-time Olympian. Looking to finisher higher than he had before (fourth at the 1993 Worlds was his best thus far), Saunders opened with three close wins (3-1, 3-1, 4-0) to reach the final where dropped a 1-1 decision to Vadim Bogiyev (Russia) to earn the silver medal. Saunders returned to the Games for a third time in 2004 Athens as he helped coach the first women’s freestyle team. He married five-time World Champion Tricia Saunders.

Sun Devils in MMA

Sun Devil Wrestling

In the world of MMA (mixed martial arts), the Sun Devil wrestling program has continually produced some of the top talents in the sport, both now and in the past. While former Sun Devils have held championship belts in the past, including UFC Heavyweight Champion Dan ‘The Beast’ Severn and Pride Welterweight and Middleweight (at the same time) Champion ‘Dangerous’ Dan Henderson, the current crop of talent is already turning heads. The trio of talented newcomers includes three Sun Devils that earned All-America honors at the 2006 NCAA Championships: Cain Velasquez, C.B. Dollaway and Ryan Bader.

In October 2010, Velasquez’ rise to the top culminated with his TKO of Brock Lesnar at UFC 121 where he downed the defending champion and captured the belt to become the UFC World Heavyweight Champion. Velasquez is the first Sun Devil to hold a belt (in the current system of non-tournament fighting) and also is the first fighter of Mexican heritage to hold a title in any major organization.

In Arizona, a trio of former Sun Devil All-Americans are continuing to evolve the sport, not only as fighters, but as trainers. Bader, the TUF Season 8 winner, Dollaway, known as ‘The Doberman’ and the TUF Season 7 runner-up, and their former coach Aaron ‘A-Train’ Simpson still train in the Valley and are in the process of opening their own gym in Gilbert. All three are fighters in the UFC, including ‘Darth’ Bader, who remains undefeated in the light heavyweight division.

Historically, two Severn and Henderson have held distinctions that no other fighters have. Severn is the only UFC Triple Crown winner -- won a UFC tournament (UFC 5), the Ultimate Ultimate Tournament and the UFC Superfight -- while Henderson, who has recently transitioned into the UFC, was a Pride Champion at two weight classes at the same time (middleweight and light heavyweight), the only fighter in Pride’s history to hold two belts at one time.

Here is a list of the others that have participated in MMA (past & present): Sun Devil Ryan ‘Darth’ Bader C.B. ‘The Doberman’ Dollaway Chance Farrar Kellan Fluckiger Don ‘The Predator’ Frye Dan ‘Hendo’ Henderson Rex ‘Big Dog’ Holman Eric Larkin Townsend Saunders Dan ‘The Beast’ Severn Aaron ‘A-Train’ Simpson Cain Velasquez Bubba Jenkins Thom Ortiz

Sun Devil Wrestling

Families have played a key role in the development of Arizona State’s wrestling program, and not just in the sense of former wrestlers coming back to coach the current members.

To date, 31 different families have had multiple members of their family on a Sun Devil wrestler roster, including Anthony and Zahid Valencia.

Although most families represented are brothers, there has been one deep-rooted tradition at ASU with the father-sons combination of Glenn Sr., Glenn Jr., Wayne and Rob McMinn.

Together, they competed for the Sun Devils in three different decades.

To date, the Jeffries (Jim, John, Randy, Ron & Tim) have the most family members to wrestle for ASU with the Severns (Dan, Dave, Mike & Rod) right behind them with four members.

Honors and Awards

Sun Devil Wrestling

THE DAN HODGE AWARD The Dan Hodge Award, considered the Heisman Trophy of collegiate wrestling, is given annually to the most dominating and undefeated wrestler in the nation. In 2003, Eric Larkin went 34-0 en route to the NCAA title at 149 pounds, as well as his fourth Pac-12 title, to earn the Hodge and cap a stellar senior campaign in Tempe.

Larkin was only the third Pac-12 wrestler to earn the award first given in 1995, following Stephen Neal of CS Bakersfield in 1999 and Oregon State’s Les Gutches in 1996.

The Hodge, named for legendary Oklahoma Sooner wrestler Dan Hodge, takes into consideration a wrestler’s dominance on the mat, his number of pins, his overall record, past credentials, the quality of competition he faces, his sportsmanship, his citizenship and his heart. Hodge exemplified all those things, going 46-0 in his collegiate career and winning three national titles (1955-57) while never surrendering a takedown to any opponent.

Pres. Crow/Ray Anderson

Sun Devil Wrestling

Michael M. Crow became the 16th president of ASU in

2002 and under his leadership, the Wall Street Journal named ASU in the top five for producing career-ready

graduates who succeed in business. He is committed to Arizona State being a “New American University”, one that combines academic excellence, inclusiveness, and societal impact. Time Magazine named Crow one of the Top 10 college presidents in the United States. Crow understands the importance of athletics as part of the academic experience, as he was a heavyweight wrestler and football player in high school and competed in track and field at Iowa State.

Crow on Zeke Jones: “I said to Ray, either we’re going to have a wrestling team that’s going to compete for national championships or we’re not going to have a wrestling team so you need to find the best person in the world to be our coach. Zeke Jones is our coach: Multi-time world champion in wrestling, NCAA champion, ASU graduate; and at the time that Ray hired him, sitting Olympic coach for the United States Olympic Team in wrestling, former coach at the University of Pennsylvania. That is the person; the personage, the kind of character that we are looking for.”

Ray Anderson was named ASU VP for University Athletics and Athletics Director on Jan. 9, 2014. Since his arrival, he has made revolutionary changes to the Arizona State athletics department, adding sports in an industry that trends toward dropping them, with the addition of men’s ice hockey, women’s lacrosse, men’s tennis, and women’s triathlon. He has also hired multiple notable head coaches in Bob Bowman, Cliff English, Zeke Jones, and Bobby Hurley, to name a few. Prior to ASU, Anderson served as executive VP and chief administrative officer of the Atlanta Falcons as well as in the sports agency business and as an attorney.

Anderson on Zeke Jones: “It is important we retain our high-caliber coaching hires and, without a doubt, Coach Jones has made a huge impact in his three years at Arizona State. He consistently demands high academic commitment and athletic dedication from our student-athletes and he and his staff worked tirelessly to recruit one of the top-rated recruiting classes in college wrestling history.”
