Dudley wrestling coach battles cancer, Greensboro News & Record, Jan 10
Editor's Note: Quentin Crosby is one of my favorite coaches in the state. While I don't cross paths with him very frequently throughout the season, every time I do see him, he always has a smile on his face. He has done a wonderful job developing his program at Dudley, and also his youth program - a class act and a coach who does things "the right way." I was amazed to find out he was diagnosed with cancer in September - weeks before the Super 32 Challenge, and yet he still was a tremendous help to Dave and me as he provided table workers for half the mats at our tournament.
Quentin - you are truly an inspiration to me and I'm sure to many others in the NC wrestling family. Thank you for sharing your story.
