Championship belt comes to Selwyn House

Selwyn House Wrestling Coach Rob Moore dropped in on a recent meeting of school directors on November 8 with a little surprise: the championship belt won by ultimate fighter George St. Pierre in his comeback bout in Madison Square Garden on November 4, where St-Pierre returned from a four-year hiatus to defeat Michael Bisping and become the UFC middleweight champion.
 
Upon his return from New York to his hometown of Montreal, St-Pierre presented his belt to the coaches at the Montreal Wrestling Club, in appreciation for the coaching and training he has received there.

"What a humble, classy, incredibly honest and approp-riate thing to do," said Mr. Moore. 
 
“For the past 16 years George has been training with us at the Montreal Wrestling Club/National Training Center, where I have been helping him in his preparation for numerous world events,” explains Mr. Moore.
 
Mr. Moore has been coaching at Selwyn since 1988 and is also currently a coach for the Canadian national Wrestling Team. He is also currently coaching his son, 2014 Selwyn House grad Alex Moore, who is currently a Sport Canada Carded athlete and 2020 Olympic Hopeful.
