This week we take a look back with our guests:
9:00 Kevin Jackson- ISU Head Coach. After his first NCAA Championship we'll get his thoughts on preping his athletes, his 2 champions and the attack of the next season. We'll talk Varner and Zabriski
9:20 Barry Davis- Wisconsin Head Coach- Coach of the Year. To go through all Barry has gone through this year and have his team buck up and do what they did was incredible. That's what wrestling is to me. We'll talk about Howe.
9:40 Jay Weiss- Harvard's Head Coach joins us and will discuss J.P. O'Conner's unlikley role as champion. Seems like this is a kid who is destined to wear crowns. What was the Jesse Jantzen effect?
10:00 Brent Metcalf- Iowa 149 pound NCAA Champ. As close to perfect as you can get. He had to give away a year due the pettyness of administrators at his previous school but still performed his level best. Hard Charging through the year, redemption after a Big 10 loss to rival Palmer, Champion at the NCAA's.
10:10 Jayson Ness- Minnasota 133 pound NCAA Champ. After close years, heartbreaking finishes, standout performances, Ness was able to put it all together this year. It wasn't the stars aligning, it wasn't the tea leaves in the bottom of a cup. It was hard work. Plain and simple.
10:20 Matt McDonough- Iowa 125 pound NCAA Champ. A legacy at Iowa, this kid just keeps getting better and surprizing even the most seasoned fan. he's working toward his own records his own certain kind of legacy.
10:35 Kyle Dake- Cornell 141 pound NCAA Champ. The Big Red wrestling team finished in second place at the NCAA tournament on Saturday evening. Cornell had a total of four All-Americans with Mack Lewnes taking second, Cam Simaz finishing third and Troy Nickerson taking fourth to join Dake. The Big Red’s second-place team placing is the highest in school history at the NCAA tournament.
10:45 J.P. O'Conner- Harvard 157 pound Champ. J. P. has been named EIWA Wrestler of the Year, after his championship performance at the NCAA Championships. O'Connor went undefeated at 157 pounds this season, finishing with a record of 35-0. O'Connor is the third NCAA wrestling champion in Harvard history, and the third three-time All-American. He placed fifth in 2007 and sixth in 2008, both times at 149 pounds. Previous Harvard champions were John Harkness in 1938 and Jesse Jantzen in 2004.
