Two things to keep in mind: (1) bouts against teammates do not count on the ISRF; (2) the forfeits count as losses.

How can the #1 team in the country host a dual in the BJC and not have video replay available?

Ralph Teague, Southwestern Oklahoma (1933, 1934) Tony Gizoni, Waynesburg (1950, 1951) Jack Cuvo, East Stroudsburg (1988, 1989)

Part 1: No clue at the moment. I'll have to do some digging. Part 2: Greg Ruth? Competed at Lehigh through his Soph year (1959). Spent 4yrs in the Army, then transferred to Oklahoma and won two titles (1965 & 1966)

If true, that infers Resilite is the brand used for the B1G championships. It does not necessarily mean each of the member schools use Resilite mats. Michigan may be a Resilite school... Wisconsin is a Dollamur school...

Has Sparks ever been to Northumberland PA? I used to drive by their location all the time when I was younger. I can remember wrestling in the Resilite tournament as well. Every time he says that, I find myself wondering if the match is actually taking place on a Resilite mat? I find his use of the brand (as a word) to be analogous to Xerox, Jell-O, Band-Aid, Post-It, and Kleenex.. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You would think he’d know it, given that’s how Matt Brown won a national title. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Haines is fortunate that the NCAA denied Humphreys application to get a medical for the 2019-20 season. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Typical. Davis stalled his way to his win v DeAugustino. Was gifted the win v Ohio State. Not impressed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Or result in the creation of the Mat Town III Open. Or another "Dresser Special"

How can he be on the hot seat when he never pays-up when he loses? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was thinking that Iowa had all ten in the top ten during Metcalf's era, but the best I could come up with was his senior year (2010 NCAA seeds): 125: McDonough #3 133: Dennis #2 141: Marion #6 (LeClere also ranked during the season) 149: Metcalf #2 157: Kerr (Aaron Janssen split time here during the season) 165: Morningstar #7 174: Borschel #2 184: Keddy #9 197: Beatty #9 285: Erekson #5

No upset… and Foca is clearly improving. He went from losing by MAJ to losing by DEC. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

king of the watered-down accolades: 4x NCAA champ who really isn't & and master of the unforgotten, 5-3 1st Frosh season while wrestling attached. Olympic-year World Champ, who won it at a non-Olympic weight after the top-tier guys had shut it down following the Olympics.

Watching the FB video, it seems that Lange was not the only guy injured in the auto accident. Jay Hammond's summary in The History of Collegiate Wrestling confirms your assumption. It states, "Defending champ Cornell of Iowa did not enter a team. The Rams were without injured NCAA champs Lowell Lange and Dick Hauser, and a number of other starters were not fully fit. Cornell mentor Paul Scott decided to concentrate on the National AAU tournament, and the team did not make the trip to Bethlehem."

Adding a little more about Lowell Lange: "Lange won his first National AAU title while still at Waterloo West High School in Waterloo, Iowa. For three of the next four years, he reigned over the nation’s lightweight wrestlers. He claimed three individual NCAA titles at 136 pounds in 1947, 1949, and 1950, along with individual national AAU titles those years. Had he not suffered severe injuries in a car accident as a sophomore in the Olympic year of 1948, Lange likely would have become college wrestling’s first four-time champion, as well as an international medalist. Returning from injury as a junior, Lange swept through the 1949 collegiate tournament without surrendering a single point, perhaps the only wrestler to do so since scoring rules were adopted." https://news.cornellcollege.edu/2019/04/lowell-lange-50-report/

1947 Cornell College (IA) Dick Hauser at 121 https://cornellrams.com/honors/hall-of-fame/richard-j-hauser/165 Lowell Lange at 136 https://cornellrams.com/honors/hall-of-fame?hof=157 Found this video about the "1947 Dream Team" on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NWHOFDGM/videos/830691920718513/

It comes up during his interview on The Bader Show - about 19min into the show. Basically, he didn't have any knowledge about Crookham's background prior to the bout.

I'll eventually get this right. Tulsa Central had 16 individuals win a total of 30 titles. I'm missing the name of one 1x champ. Here's the list: LeRoy McGuirk: 1931 Allan Kelley: 1933, 1934 Wayne Martin: 1934, 1935, 1936 Stanley Henson: 1937, 1938, 1939 Harold Byrd: 1940 Vernon Logan: 1940, 1942 Buddy Arndt: 1941, 1942, 1946 Burl Jennings: 1941, 1942 Merle Jennings: 1941, 1942 Bill Maxwell: 1942 Phil Smith: 1951 George Layman: 1951, 1952 Hugh Peery: 1952, 1953, 1954 Fred Davis: 1955 Mickey Martin: 1962, 1963 The database created by Jay Hammond (a.k.a., "Boomer" - R.I.P.) used to be the best source for this kind of stuff. Most of the old links are now non-functional.

Typo in my post above. The correct count is 14 champs from Tulsa Central.

Tulsa Central HS. Eleven champs. Mickey Martin (TCHS class of 1959 & son of Wayne Martin) was the last TCHS graduate to win NCAA titles in 1962 and 1963 (OW). Mickey and Wayne are the only father-son duo to win OW awards.

Unattached, but Dillon and Rey could clearly be seen just off the mat. Rey appeared to be quite vocal following one particular exchange.

I don’t believe the Paris Olympic Games are on the table. Isn’t there a waiting period for those who change their named country? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
