D1 wrestler vs high schooler

[stephendavis]

Nice of him to set him down gently after lifting him off the ground. That slam would have been brutal

[riazzaman]

The D1 guy was actually very respectful and didn't go out to hurt the other guy. Fair play.

Gave that high schooler a good learning experience. My coach would invite all alumni to come wrestle with us in high-school. Getting thrown around by grown ass men and watching their technique from years of experience was vital to our growth. It let us know this is what we could be if we take training seriously

I like how he gently places him down like he's putting a child to bed. 🤣

[Godlovesu]

At least he understood he still a high school kid and didn’t slam him.

[playablecharacter]

Big respect for not slamming him. You still put on an expo without it, and it showed class

[alexzegar]

Wow that guy was good! He showed mercy and didn’t slam him down. Nice 👍🏻

2x state champ and a half dozen conference/regional championships and I know better than to think I would be anything other than finger food to even a mild caliber D1 wrestler. I fucking love and breathe this sport but there are levels to everything folks.

Props to the college kid for not beating the snot out of his opponent. He learned more in that match than he had in his previous 3 years or better.

Get your ass kicked often and learn from it, and you'll progress faster in this sport than any caliber of coach or summer camp can help you.

[TuxedoTalk]

There's always someone better and if there isn't. Congratulations, they'll be along shortly.

[Nott_Vermeen]

Well it didn’t take long to figure out whos who.

[Disciplined.Disciple]

Hate to see my old school get dumped like that but glad to see they make ‘em like they used too

[carolynbuckley]

The cool thing is though that high school kid can benefit so much from getting to feel first hand what that other level feels like. Sometimes when you are young you think you are invincible or you think that other level is so far away you will never reach it. When someone does this to you it shows you that it's there and you can get it too. Bet that kid goes straight to work

[heypeople]

I feel the D1 wrestler thought it was gonna be hard till he got the first take down. Then he slowly eased up on young fella haha great sportsmanship

[Eaa_IC]

The dominance and respect to sit him down gently was mad dope.
It was like “here u go big fella”

[mahtohohitica]

I was blessed to watch Lincoln McIlravy do that to his guys.

[whatadoge]

The fact that the D1 is so comfortable is terrifying

[cobbs]

One of our high school alums was a d1 national champ. A few years after he graduated, he came to one of our practices, and I had a chance to roll with him. Even though he was slightly smaller than I was, he tossed me around like I was a kid. He had tried out for the Olympic team, and he said he didn't come close to making it, so imagine how good those guys are, especially the guys who win gold like Gable, Sanderson, and Burroughs. Insane.

[blackjack]

that snap down at the beginning…that’s grown man strength right there.

[happyfisherman]
