Hall of Fame Medal of Courage recipient and former U.S. National Team Member Richard Perry Connecticut native Richard Perry has had a trying five years, but before he suffered an accident at Camp Pendleton in California when the U.S. national team was there training, Perry was a member of the national team who had been rapidly improving. A multiple-time NCAA qualifier at Bloomsburg, Perry didn’t start wrestling until he was in his later years in high school and eventually turned into a formidable threat on the senior level.
