High Schools and Colleges in the USA do not wrestle FreeStyle in competition with other schools that is the International Style along with Greco that is wrestled in the Olympics
High Schools and colleges wrestle Folk Style also called Scholastic wrestling in the USA. There are different rules between this and the International styles. Though we compete internationally it requires to wrestle based on the style which have different rules
I’ve watched/covered many college sports, including wrestling and I don’t ever recall hearing PA announcer calling for a wrestler to ‘report to a mat’. Maybe HS wrestling has more than one match going on at the same time, hence ‘mat 2’, but probably not. That requires 2 completely different set of timers, refs and coaches….. plus a segmented fan base trying to watch 2 (or, in HB’s world, maybe even more) matches at the same time.
I’m pretty sure Kaz is plenty pi$$ed that he got less screen time in 40 years than Big Hand Luke got in four months as Gil’s assistant. No wonder he left.
Wrestling is coed around here. Other than the obvious benefit of getting to wrestle with a girl, there’s no upside. Either you “just beat a girl,” or you “got beat by a girl.”
The meet must be at the Downtown Milford Convention Center. Hard to tell because Jami hasn’t finished etching in the name on the side of the building yet. It’s definitely not the Jim.
From here on out, Keri easily kicks everyone’s a$$, as she takes out her anger and frustration about her mother’s new lifestyle on every girl that she wrestles.
Who goes to a wrestling meet with their briefcase? Is that lady going to get some paperwork done because it’s so boring of an event (to her)? Maybe she’s working on the contract for the sale of Montoni’s in Crankshaft. And speaking of working, I’ve been working on today’s Mopped Up Thorp and it is now ready.

Let’s see, Keri plays volleyball, softball, basketball swims and wrestles. It’s amazing she has any time at all to high jump Pedro’s bone.

A controversy over Inma’s attire? We had that here in Ohio with a girl wearing a hijab to run cross country, she was disqualified.

There would be more interest if Dorothy Wolfe wrestled. The stench smelling mats would smell better.

Inma Rimsha? That sounds like Buster Hymen or Phil McCracken.
