When viewed in isolation, each issue surrounding GPS Wrestling could appear to be a lapse in judgment. Viewed together, they form a consistent pattern: conceal, deny, and deflect. The felony-convicted coach was hidden. Collegiate claims were fabricated. COVID violations were covered up. A court case was fought rather than faced. The theme never changes, and the truth is withheld until someone asks.
This is an advocacy/investigative site, and its accompanying YouTube channel was published by the Center for Transparency in Youth Sports, which documents alleged misconduct by GPS Wrestling (Armonk, NY) and its head coach, Grant Paswall, to correct that imbalance. Every allegation is supported by evidence: documents, official statements, and first-hand verification. No claim stands without a source. Our only purpose is to restore transparency to an environment that depends on it.
In every instance, evidence surfaces only through outside investigation: public court documents, archived web pages, university records, or eyewitness accounts. None of these facts were volunteered by GPS Wrestling or its leadership. Instead, parents and community members were left to discover them through independent inquiry. Transparency was not the norm; exposure was forced.
Youth sports depend on trust. Parents hand over their children and their money, expecting honesty, safety, and ethical leadership. When a program hides criminal backgrounds, falsifies résumés, and conducts secret practices during public-health bans, it erodes that foundation. These aren’t isolated mistakes; they represent a philosophy of concealment.

“Parents, it’s up to you to get the answers to these questions for the sake of your kids… and for your peace of mind.”
Those closing words from our introductory video summarize the mission. This is not a campaign against an individual. It is a defense of truth within youth sports. The only people who fear transparency are those with something to hide.
GPS Wrestling owes parents honesty. Until that happens, this platform will continue documenting what others won’t. Because truth, once exposed, cannot be pinned back down.
