The Chapter is proud to recognize Elaine Krum - a true pioneer of women' wrestling in New York State.
Elaine Krum

Elaine Krum was raised in a dairy farm south of Fort Plains, New York. Her parents taught her to be dependable, responsible and to always be accountable for her actions. Those principles would play a major role in helping to guide her throughout her life and the sport of wrestling. She soon discovered that wrestling contained the essential values that she learned from her parents and became involved as the assistant coach in Fort Plains High School with Kim Lathers. Elaine was certainly a trailblazer in women participation in the sport of wrestling way before it was accepted in the main stream. Elaine is a true pioneer in women involvement in the sport.

Accomplishments:
• Selected for induction into the Upstate New York Chapter of the NWHOF
• Section II Female Coaching Pioneer Recognition (first female wrestling coach)
• Actively involved in the Empire Games
• 1990 – National Wrestling Association Coach of the Year
• 1989-90 Assistant Coach of the Year Award
• 2014 – Section II Dedication Award – Daily Gazette
• Co-coach of two Class D Sectional Championship teams
• Co-coach of 9 League Championship teams
• 1987 Award & Plaque from Springfield Wrestling Team and Coach Doug Parker
• Groundbreaking role as a female coach in a male-dominated sport
What they said about Elaine

“Elaine has been actively involved in the 10 years that I was a member of the Adirondack Three Style Wrestling Club. She helped to bring many of her area wrestlers to the club to train and develop into good wrestlers. Elaine Krum is a PLUS to development of our sport.” Frank Famiano – Division III National Champion – Brockport College
Kim Lathers – Co-coach with Elaine – “In reality, it’s like having two head coaches. The only difference is in the amount of the paycheck at the end of the year. When the wrestlers come into the room, they know that Elaine is the coach.”
Art Cardi – “She is as knowledgeable about wrestling as any of the male coaches in Section II. She devotes all of her time to the wrestlers. She is a wonderful person.”
