I-Ridge wrestling coach Berrier deserves honorย
Tim Berrierย has coached Ironwood Ridge to three state wrestling championships as well as three No. 2 finishes. He was deservedly honored last week by the National State High School Association as one of 22 prep coaches of the year, in any sport. Few coaches in Tucson have ever paid their dues the way Berrier did; he previously coached at Pueblo and Salpointe Catholic dating to1991. Berrier has been at it so long that his once-in-a-lifetime wrestler, four-time Salpointe state championย Nick Frostย of the 1990s, now a systems engineer for General Dynamics in Scottsdale, is the wrestling coach at Red Mountain High School.
