SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - A former wrestling coach admits he talked a 12-year-old wrestler into texting sexually explicit videos of himself to the coach in exchange for photos of naked women.

Joshua Rice of Brewerton, near Syracuse, pleaded guilty in federal court on Tuesday and was jailed. He faces at least 15 years and up to 30 years in prison when he's sentenced on July 11.

The 26-year-old Rice also admitted exploiting three other young wrestlers he coached as a volunteer at Paul V. Moore High School in Central Square.

Rice was arrested in 2010 after a family member of the 12-year-old boy found the videos and sexually explicit text messages on the boy's cell phone.
