Congratulations Coach Sami!

Richland High School is proud to announce the hiring of Samantha Dufault as the new Head Coach of the Bomber Girls Wrestling program. Dufault becomes the first official head coach in the history of the school’s girls wrestling program.

A proud Bomber alumna and former wrestler in the Richland program, Dufault brings both experience and passion to the position. Over the past four years, she has served as an assistant coach for the Bomber Girls Wrestling team, playing a key role in the growth and success of the program. During her time on staff, the Bombers captured their first-ever Girls Wrestling State Championship, and Dufault was instrumental in helping coach the program’s first individual girls state champion.

Her deep connection to Richland wrestling, combined with her leadership and dedication to student-athletes, made her a natural choice to lead the program into its next chapter.

“I’m incredibly honored to have the opportunity to serve as the first head coach for girls wrestling at Richland High School,” said Dufault. “This was a decision I approached with a great deal of thought and faith, and I feel truly blessed to continue being part of a program that means so much to me"

Richland High School Athletic Director Adrian Ochoa added, “Samantha has already had a tremendous impact on our girls wrestling program. Her passion for Richland wrestling, commitment to our student-athletes, and her success in the program as a coach already, make her the ideal person to lead the Bombers into the future. We are excited to see the program continue to thrive under her leadership.”

Please join us in congratulating Coach Dufault as she begins this exciting new chapter for Bomber Girls Wrestling.

Welcome Coach Stover.

Richland High School is proud to announce Tyson Stover as the new Head Coach of the Richland Bombers Boys Wrestling program!

A Tri-Cities native, former Washington State Champion, and four-time state placer at Chiawana High School, Coach Stover brings an impressive wrestling background and a passion for developing student-athletes. During his collegiate career at Corban University, Stover earned 85 career wins — second-most in program history — while qualifying for the NAIA National Tournament and earning Academic All-Conference and NAIA Scholar-Athlete honors.

Most recently, he served as a varsity assistant coach at Kamiakin High School. “As much as we wanted to keep him, he was destined to be a head coach,” said Kamiakin Head Coach Jordan Anderson. “Richland is getting an outstanding coach and an even better person.”

We are excited for the future of Bomber Wrestling under Coach Stover’s leadership and look forward to the impact he will make on our athletes, program, and community.

Please join us in welcoming Coach Tyson Stover to the Bombers family!

A huge thank you to Mark Ingham for the incredible job you did highlighting our kids and our wrestling program throughout the season. Your photos and videos captured not just the wins, but the heart, the emotion, and the growth of our athletes.

What you do means more than most people realize. You gave our wrestlers moments they’ll remember forever — memories they can look back on years from now. You also helped showcase the hard work, toughness, and character of our team to the entire community.

Personally, it meant a great deal to me as a coach. Seeing our athletes recognized and celebrated the way you did was truly special. Our kids felt proud, our parents felt proud, and our entire program benefited from your dedication and support.

Thank you for investing your time, talent, and passion into our wrestlers and our program. It did not go unnoticed, and it is deeply appreciated. 🙏

We’re grateful for you, Mark. 💚💛
