Coach and wrestler matched from Clock Takes Coast Crown, Lewis & Clark College (Special Collections digital collections) (PDF page 94 (two-page spread; the Wrestling page is printed page 189, headed 'WRESTLING' and 'CLOCK TAKES COAST CROWN'): the three consecutive body paragraphs of the wrestling article, from 'Two returning Pacific Coast champions...' through '...consolation round for third place.' The page's photo captions also read '1957 Pioneer wrestling team ... Coach Ralph Staley, Mike Clock' and 'Left, Ralph Staley, outstanding grappler in the 177-pound class and team coach, was held below his 1956 form this season by a knee injury and failed to defend his Pacific Coast championship successfully, placing third.').

How these are counted

• NCAA tournaments are the championship years in which Ralph Staley was the established head coach of a team with entrants. They are not years of employment; there were no championships in 1943–45 or 2020.
• A year inside the span with no established coach is listed but not counted. A year with two head coaches counts in full for both.
• Team titles are official NCAA titles from the published standings (1928, 1931 and 1933 have none). Top four and top ten come from the same standings.
• Entries count each wrestler once per tournament; All-Americans are counted as each era awarded them; wins and losses include forfeit, default and disqualification results; falls exclude forfeits.
• The head coach for each year, with sources, is on that year's program page. Report a correction.
