Testimonials
"Its going well - the parents are really impressed."
Pete DiPol
Head Wrestling Coach
Haddonfield High School, NJ
"I am completely blown away by the RIOT Sports Marketing program. At small Division III colleges such as ours, resources are limited and it's always a challenge to get people in the stands for duals. Coach Harshaw is obviously a forward thinking individual and has now provided us all with a cost-effective method of marketing and promoting our programs. I feel RIOT has found the missing piece to the puzzle in the fight to save college wrestling."

"I met personally with Jim Harshaw to find out what Riot Sports Marketing was all about and how it could help my wrestling team. All I can say is, 'WOW!' I was totally blown away! Over the years I've had a number of ideas on how to promote my team. Not only will Riot do these things for me, it will do many more that I never realized could be done. And the best part of all? I don't have to do anything myself. I HIGHLY recommend Riot Sports Marketing to ANY coach who would like to give his wrestling team undreamed-of exposure and revenue-making opportunities."

"Riot is the future of sports marketing. I want it for everyone of my programs."

" I truly believe that the many benefits Riot Sports Marketing can bring to a high school (or collegiate) wrestling program far outweigh any costs incurred. Riot provides programs with a core set of tools that are essential to fundraising, marketing your team and overall program development. With the challenges facing our sport today there is no better time to research the services that Riot provides."

"I am convinced and I think our Board is convinced that Riot Sports Marketing allowed us in our most recent Gala & Benefit to double our attendance and total donations. Last year we had a little over 450 people attend where we raised $450,000.
As of now, as donations are still “trickling in” where we have raised over $900,000 with over 1000 people on the Intrepid.
If we can move a few new cities to become successful it will be provide the validity nationwide that we can reverse the downward curve of participation that wrestling is experiencing in its High Schools and Colleges."
