    FOXCATCHER Written by E. Max Frye & Dan Futterman INT. UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN GYM - VERY EARLY MORNING MARK SCHULTZ (27, 180 lbs., cauliflower ears) lifts a human- sized, leather WRESTLING DUMMY from the mat to stand in front of him. He performs a series of repetitive moves - hooking one arm under the dummy's arm, then the other; one side, then other. Again and again. It looks almost as if he's dancing gently with it. Then, very fast, Mark spins quickly around behind the dummy, grabs it in a bear hug, arches his back, lifts and SLAMS it to the mat, landing on top. QUICK CUTS: Mark spinning, lifting and slamming the dummy - first one way, then the other - first one hold, then another - SLAM. SLAM. SLAM. SLAM. SLAM - over and over and over again. CUT TO: I/E. BARABOO SCHOOL/PARKING LOT - LATE MORNING Mark pulls his beat-up car into a space in the parking lot of this nondescript, 1960s-era suburban brick-facade school. He's freshly showered, wears a short-sleeve dress shirt, clip- on tie, slacks. He reaches behind the front seat and pulls out a battered BROWN VINYL BRIEFCASE. CUT TO: INT.

  • 1972 Vs 1992 Olympic Teams
    ’72 vs. ’92: What Would Really Happen by John Peterson & Ethan Bosch #12 After reading Kyle Klingman’s article on the match between the 1972 and 1992 Freestyle Olympic Teams, I felt the strong urge to counter. After all, that is what wrestling teaches us - we do not just learn offense; we also learn defense. Having had the privilege of being at both the ’72 and ’92 Olympics, I can speak with some authority on the subject. I realize it is always dangerous to go up against historians when tackling these kinds of tasks. Therefore, I approach this work with some fear, but not to the point of trembling! Since I let my teammates down by losing a close one to Kevin Jackson, I feel the competitive juices begin to flow with the desire to defend my teammates and somehow help them in this imaginary epic struggle between outstanding warriors. I am sure that Coach Bill Farrell would have figured out a way. With Coach’s ability to instill confidence in his men and Wayne Wells as Captain, surely the 1972 team would have prevailed, somehow! 105.5: Sergio Gonzalez vs. Tim Vanni (Klingman: 4-3, Vanni in OT) The first match is an all-important one. It is safe to argue that a man who ties the returning world champion is worthy of a closer look. Sergio Gonzales also tied the West German in a match that was filled with hometown calls, as I recall. So, given that fact, it is safe to believe that Sergio could just have easily been on the victory stand if we had been in a different arena.

  • Making the Transition from Folkstyle to Freestyle
    Making the Transition from Folkstyle to Freestyle With most youth and high school wrestling seasons now complete, it's the time of year where many wrestlers will transition from competing in folkstyle to freestyle. "Freestyle wrestling really teaches the fundamentals of the sport," says University of Iowa Head Assistant Coach Terry Brands, a two-time Freestyle World Champion and 2000 Olympic Bronze Medalist. "The more skills you master in any style of wrestling, the better wrestler you can become." That's what Teague Moore learned in his wrestling career at Oklahoma State University, competing for legendary head coach John Smith, a six-time freestyle World Champion and a two-time Olympic Gold Medalist. Smith’s ability to teach freestyle skills—and incorporate how they crossover into folkstyle—played a huge role in Moore becoming an NCAA champion and three-time All-America wrestler. Now the head coach at American University in Washington, D.C., Moore said: "My freestyle experience and exposure are the only reasons why I succeeded in folkstyle. Without freestyle, I would have been mediocre at best."

The goal from the bottom position in folkstyle wrestling is to get away. The goal from the bottom position in freestyle is to avoid being turned/exposed.
