    Waters named Outstanding Wrestler at Dave Schultz Memorial

    COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- It was a clean sweep of gold medals for American men's freestyle wrestlers who won all six finals at the 18th Dave Schultz Memorial International on Friday.

    Claiming the Outstanding Wrestler was the champion at 57 kilos/125.5 pounds, former Missouri All-American Alan Waters of the Missouri Wrestling Foundation. In the championship finals, he dispatched 2015 Junior World bronze medalist Stevan Micic of the New York AC in a 17-5 technical fall.

    Waters jumped to a 6-1 lead, with a two-point takedown followed by a four-point takedown, along with a Micic reversal. Micic closed it to 7-5 with a second-period takedown. However, Waters scored the next takedown, followed by a series of turns, to get the 17-5 technical fall.

    Waters dominated all of his opponents, scoring 10-0 technical falls over his first three opponents. Included was a quarterfinals victory over 2010 World Team member Obe Blanc of the Titan Mercury WC.
