John Kocsis - Decatur
Decatur’s John Kocsis is the son of John and Catherine Kocsis. “Kocsis” as he is called by his wrestling coaches, Brian Southworth and Troy Gailhouse, is the defending 140 pound SAC champion and is a team leader for the Raiders.
Kocsis has played football and wrestled while at Decatur High School. What is it that has driven Kosis to excel in sports? “I was always the one pushed around since I was the little kid; always smaller than everyone,” said Kocsis. “I’ve pushed myself to the fullest and now I’m one of the big guys,” adds Kocsis.

As a freshman, Kocsis wrestled at 112 pounds. After that season, he developed himself into receiving All SAC honorable mention as a sophomore. As a junior, Kocsis won the SAC at 140 pounds and this season looks to advance at state as far as he can.
In the classroom, John has a 3.5 GPA and hopes to attend GVSU where he plans on majoring in Athletic Training. Kocsis would love to stay involved in sports for a career as an athletic trainer for a major university or a professional team.
