Jake Varner Takes gold!!!!!!

WOW!  What a way to end a great week for USA Freestyle wrestling.  Two gold medals (Jordan Burroughs and Jake Varner) and a bronze by Coleman Scott.  Talking with Coleman I asked him how it felt to win bronze and of course he responded, "I wish it was gold but it feels good to medal".  He had 95 guest cheering him on in London.  That is some fan support.  Great guy and great bronze.


Varner showed up big and wrestled extremely well.  The Ukranian in the finals was frustrated as he couldn't get to Varner.  His coach Cael Sanderson is so proud of Jake and his gutsy performance.

Jared Frayer, one of the great representatives for USA unfortunately pulled a very tough Belarus wrestler and was outscored the first match and wasn't able to wrestle back because the Belarussian did not make the finals.
