FormerSAVED Iowa wrestling head coach Dan Gable and associate head coach Terry Brands celebrate in Carver-Hawkeye after the results on Sunday. The IOC voted wrestling back into the Olympics for the 2020 Games in Tokyo. (The Daily Iowan/Tessa Hursh) The International Olympic Committee voted wrestling into the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.

om Brands called the decision on Feb. 12 “worse than death” when the International Olym- T pic Committee dropped wres- tling from the 2020 Olympics that day. Wrestlers around the world saw it as a wake-up call. Dan Gable viewed it as a call to action and re- sponded by stepping his foot on the line. In essence, a seven-month wres- tling match followed. FILA, the sport’s international governing body, collaborated with some of wrestling’s most influential fig- ures to spearhead an intense effort to save wrestling’s position as an Olympic sport. Gable, the man who almost never loses, was one of those who led the charge. On Sunday, Gable and members of the Iowa wrestling communi- ty sat in Carver-Hawkeye Arena and watched the IOC vote wres- tling back into the 2020 and 2024 Olympic Games.
