On Takedown Radio this week
7/9/2008
Scott Casber, Takedown Radio


We return to the Brute Adidas studios this Saturday for another 2 hours of wrestling talk. Join us for a lively discussion on wrestling. Yup, the sport we all love. The Olympics are just 4 weeks away and the best America has to offer will be showcasing their talent in Beijing, China. I know its all hard work, determination, and whatnot but we should all take a moment and give thanks and offer a silent prayer to our Team as they endeavor to return home to the friendly shores of America with Gold around their necks! God Bless Team USA!

TDR this week:

Brett and Kristy Mattys- Parents of 2 young Minnesota wrestlers (little guys) have been challenged by their youngest son Sam, 7 years old. Sam was diagnosed at the age of 4 with Sensory Processing disorder. This is a neuroprocessing disorder that affects the way the brain interprets all of the senses. He has been in and out of Occupational therapy since the diagnosis. Sam is a "sensory seeker" and his main issues are proprioceptive. This means he has trouble with the input and feedback that tells us about movement and body position. He has issues with motor planning and control. He is a mover, shaker, jumper, crasher, bouncer! He does great when he can receive OT, which consists of what looks to you or me like gym time! One of the things that was recommended to us was to put him in wrestling, which we did. What a blessing! The warm ups and drills were like OT for him, and the wrestling itself was great for joint input. He has been part of the youth wrestling team now for 2 years. His brother also became involved after watching, and it has become a passion for our whole family.

If this interview doesn't charge you up about wrestling nothing will!

Joe McFarland- Head Coach of the Michigan Wolverines- Joe joins us to talk about Andy Hrovat and his drive to represent the USA, his goals and aspirations.

Dustin Fox- Northwestern Heavy Weight, What does the future hold for this bright young man? Tune in and find out.

Ben Askren- (Missouri) US Olympic Team Member- Ben is one of the most enigmatic wrestlers competing today. His natural strength and ability have carried him far but what lies ahead in his weight class in Beijing?

Joel Sharrett- Head Coach Air force (Iowa)- Joel spent a number of years learning Bruce Burnett's management style that he has honed to perfection as the Head Coach of the Falcons. An elite program for sure. We'll take a look at where the program was and where we go from here.

Joe Heskett- Assist Coach at The Ohio State University. I described Joe's style in competition to be the quiet before the storm. How has that translated in his current position as a coach under Tom Ryan?
