Mike Hojnacki

Mike got his start in wrestling in the hotbed of Northeast Ohio and competed for Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy (CVCA). He went on to wrestle at Messiah College (PA) where he was a two-year captain and it was there that he experienced the influence of a transformational coach. His college coach, Bryan Brunk, discipled and developed him, both on and off the mat, which inspired him to pursue a staff position with FCA in Pennsylvania. After a battle with cancer, Mike went on to join staff with FCA and has enjoyed giving back to the wrestling community in many ways, including through coaching with Beat the Streets in Philadelphia and Lancaster.
Josh Newberg – FCA Idaho Wrestling Director
example@fca.org
Josh Newberg grew up in the small town of Woodland, Washington, where sports—especially wrestling—played a big role in his life. He went on to wrestle for Boise State University from 2013 to 2017. It was during his junior and senior years at BSU that his faith deepened through the influence of a campus ministry called Cru. That experience planted a seed in his heart—a strong sense that his future career would be tied to his faith. A few years after graduating with an Engineering degree, Josh felt God calling him into full-time ministry through FCA Wrestling. Now serving as the FCA Idaho Wrestling Director, Josh is passionate about helping coaches, athletes, and their families grow in their relationship with Jesus both on and off the mat. The FCA Wrestling ministry in Idaho currently reaches the community through:
- Coach and athlete huddles
- Camps and clinics
- Coach breakfast events
- The FCA Wrestling Club in Nampa, ID
- Practice and tournament outreach
Josh has been married to his wife, Mckenna, since 2021. They have a toddler and are expecting their second child soon.
