Biography

Hi my name is Jeffrey Klenk and I am a freshman just coming in to Bloomsburg. I am originally from Malvern, PA, about 30 minutes outside Philadelphia. I've been wrestling my entire life, or since I was about 6, and now I'm at Bloomsburg for wrestling and I couldn't be more excited. It was hard leaving my high school friends, but I had the chance to spend all three months of my summer with them in Sea Isle City, NJ. We plan to return there during the upcoming summers for old times sake, and to be able to catch up on each other's lives and our college experiences. In college you have a lot of free time, and during that free time I like to listen to music, lift at the gym, and hang with friends. Given time to do things I want to do in college is what I think will make the college experience truly great, that is until wrestling season comes around. Once we start training for the season, I won't really have a social life in college whatsoever. We wake up at 5:30 AM to run hills for 2 hours straight, then go to class, then we wrestle after. I'm not really sure how I'm going to hold up doing this but to compete at the division 1 level for wrestling is something that not a lot of people can say. There's a quote my dad shared with me before he sent me off to wrestle in college, and that is, "Tough times don't last, tough people do".
