Three matches went on at the same time at Wrestling. I had a great seat to take in the Freestyle action.

Next up- Andy Hrovat, Class of 1999 St. Ed's, and Michigan Alum!
Too bad my camera has limited zoom, but this is the best I could get. Andy wrestled on the mat to the right.

The match was exciting, but it didn't end up the way we wanted it to. Andy lost to the Cuban in the last 10 seconds of period 3.
I was very surprised to see a bus load of Iranians attending!! They all had custom hats and shirts, and the group included many women.

I ran into Andy at a party later in the evening!
