USA Wrestling's Facebook page has eclipsed another milestone.
After breaking the 100,000 fan threshold on March 1, USA Wrestling's leading social media presence has grown by 25% in the seven weeks following. As of April 15, USA Wrestling's Facebook page broke the 125,000 fan mark.
In addition to posting daily news updates, the USA Wrestling Facebook page also gives fans quick access to multimedia initiatives, like USA Wrestling Weekly, the USA Wrestler Magazine and featured live webcasts from USA Wrestling events.
According to SportsFanGraph.com, USA Wrestling's Facebook presence ranks third behind all listed National Governing Bodies, behind the USTA and USA Hockey.
Back in March, Kansas eighth-grader A.J. Cooper became the 100,000th fan of the USA Wrestling Facebook fan page.
