Jason Bryant Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Kentucky's Rick Dellagatta had some epic battles with Iowa's Randy Lewis. … and is the third person involved in the 1984 controversy with the Olympic team who often doesn’t get mentioned. I met him for the first time a few years ago down in Texas … where he was WITH Randy Lewis. 1 Insert catchy tagline here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11986 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Didn’t Dellagatta beat Sergei Beloglazov at some point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next week or so at World Cup, Sergei teched him. Ricky was very dangerous especially from a scrambling point of view. The two got into what appeared to be more of a folkstyle match (rolling around). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Lewis made the final best of 3 against Lee Roy Smith. Randy won the first match, lost the second and got injured and defaulted the 3rd. Lewis protested the scoring in the 2nd match. It ended up going to binding arbitration where Dan Gable who was the 84 Olympic coach got subpoenaed to testify. Binding arbitration ruled in Lewis's favor and part of the 2nd match was re-wrestled and Lewis won and went on to win the gold medal in the Olympics. Lee Roy, John, etc. have basically held a grudge against Gable because they felt he showed favoritism towards Lewis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TitleIX is ripe for reform Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I feel grateful every year that UNC, Duke and NC State don't join Clemson, Ga. Tech. and the SEC of yesteryear by eliminating their NCAA D1 wrestling programs in the South. Hopefully Coach Koll can manage to make winners out of folks from the South (especially North Carolina). That could significantly boost our sport's return further South, couldn't it? Encouragingly enough, NC State fairly recently had an NCAA champion who is apparently from North Carolina. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
