The Sake Bottle tradition was started by the head coaches of UW-Whitewater and UW-Parkside, Willie Myers and Jim Koch, as a reminder of an international wrestling experience the two shared. In 1975, the NAIA All-State Team which Myers and Koch were a part of toured Japan and Korea. The Sake Bottle was given to the two coaches by Mr. Hatta, the former president of Japanese Wrestling, and made into a trophy that is given to the winning team of the annual dual.
The Warhawks will head to La Crosse to compete in the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Championship Saturday. Whitewater, the number one seed in the bracketed team tournament, will receive a first round bye. The Warhawks will face the winner of a dual between UW-Platteville and UW-Stevens Point in a semifinal.
