A six-year member of the Golden Eagle wrestling program and a 2020 National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) All-American, Brock Zacherl enters his third year as the top assistant coach in 2023-24.
Zacherl finished his Golden Eagle career as one of the most decorated wrestlers in Keith Ferraro's first six years as head coach, earning four trips to the NCAA Division I Championships and compiling an all-time record of 114-17 in the Blue and Gold, including a 59-2 mark in dual matches. In 2020 he was named a National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) All-American for the first time in his career. Perhaps the most impressive number attached to Zacherl's career is his undefeated record in home matches, as he compiled a 44-0 record in varsity matches as a Golden Eagle.

The 2016 Eastern Wrestling League (EWL) champion at 141 pounds and 2020 Mid-American Conference (MAC) runner-up at 149 pounds, Zacherl punched his ticket to the NCAA Championships four times in his career. His best showing came in 2018 when he won two matches to start the tournament to reach the quarterfinals. Zacherl was set to compete in his fourth Championships in 2020 before the event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Zacherl earned a pair of degrees from Clarion, starting with a Bachelor's degree in Economics in 2018. He went on to earn his MBA in 2020 in.
