Patrick Brucki enters his second season as an assistant coach for the Stanford wrestling team in 2024-25.
During his first season on The Farm, Brucki helped Stanford produce a pair of All-Americans and tie for its third-highest finish at the NCAA Championships (16th). The Cardinal finished fourth at the Pac-12 Championships, qualifying five wrestlers to the national tournament. Stanford also had five NWCA Scholar All-Americans, 10 Pac-12 Academic Honor Roll recipients, the Pac-12 Scholar-Athlete of the Year, and a CSC First Team Academic All-American in 2023-24.
Brucki joined the Cardinal after a successful collegiate career at Princeton (2017-20), under Chris Ayres, and a graduate year at Michigan (2021-22).
Brucki was a two-time All-American, placing fourth for Princeton at 197 pounds in 2019 before earning NWCA First Team honors for the Tigers in 2020. A three-time All-Ivy second team performer, he won the 2019 EIWA title and became just the second Midlands champion in Princeton history.
At Michigan, Brucki served as a team captain for the 2021-22 team which won the Big Ten title and finished as the runner-up at the NCAA Championships in Detroit. He was an NWCA Scholar All-American, Academic All-Big Ten selection and a Big Ten Distinguished Scholar.
A native of Orland Park, Illinois, Brucki earned his bachelor's degree in Science and Engineering (BSE) in Civil Environmental Engineering from Princeton University (Structural Engineering) in 2021, and a master's in Science and Engineering (MSE) in Construction Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2022.
