Wrestling season starts in 7...

I wrestled 171 collegiate and 171.5 in Greco, Sombo, Freestyle, and Judo I won state in AAU three times and went to nationals twice (one years didn't have money for the trip to Michigan.) I wrestled John Smith of Oklahoma U and he beat me by a few. Practiced with Dan Gable and Ken Chertow. I have been around.
 
Nope I am old and outta shape like you read about! I was good in my day but age has taken its toll on me. I love to relive the old memories but for me I am done. My last hoorah was coaching the USS Goerge Washington wrestling team on our 1998 cruise.
 
well, it sounds like you had a good run. I wrestled through jr high and first couple years of highschool. I got a neck injury and had to quit. I was successfull when i did wrestle, I really wish I could have kept going. Its a fun sport, and I am very competitve in individual sports, which really helped me succeed. At my univeristy we've got a few Nationally ranked wrestlers. Our program is nearly always successful

Sweet man! I was (no shite) 64-3 my junior year. I also played foozball at Inside Linebacker. I (at the time ) had a chip on my shoulder and was out for blood no matterwhat sport I played. I am in the who's who in high school athletics for foozball and wrestling for 1990 thru 1993. (senior year I broke my arm and was out.
