Marcie VanDusen enters her second season in charge of the women's wrestling program at Menlo College.  In her first year at the helm, the Lady Oaks thrived on their way to top five finishes for returning wrestlers Sherry Sabado and Michelle Iminez-Linares at two separate National Tournaments, but that was just the initial foundation.  This year Van Dusen brings in a stellar recruiting class of 15 dynamic freshmen which has given the program incredible possibilities for years to come.    

VanDusen spent eight years as a member of the U.S. National Team, culminating with a spot on the 2008 U.S. Olympic Team and a ninth-place finish at the Beijing Games. During her stretch on the U.S. National Team, VanDusen was a 2004 World University champion and 2008 World Cup gold medalist, and also represented the U.S. as a member of the 2007 World Team. She is a two-time national champion.

While VanDusen's coaching career is at an early stage, she has been just as successful as a leader off the mat as she was a competitor on it. VanDusen was just named the California USA Women's Wrestling Director and is also a coach for the California USA Wrestling women's team which she led to a dominant first-place performance at the National Junior Duals in 2009. She also serves as an instructor at Rim of the World Wrestling Club in her native Lake Arrowhead, CA., as well as a number of clinics across the country.

Within USA Wrestling, VanDusen is a proven leader as a member of the Board of Directors. She has also served on the Executive Committee, Women's Sports Committee, and Athletes Advisory Committee.

VanDusen graduated from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs in 2010 with a BA in Geography & Environmental Studies.
