Was there, 1981 Jadwin Gymnasium, Princeton. Gene Mills was the OW that year and Randy Lewis was an All-American wrestling with one arm after a nasty elbow injury that kept him out for a chunk on the season.
I can't believe how well these big guys move. ANd Banach working against the immense and always good Baumgartner so hard that time. We definitely had a couple of the best heavyweights in the world during their best years
My knowledge only goes back to the mid-80's & think so. Telford & Cassioppi are the only other notables I can think of. Ik they got that real good freshman, but he still needs to fill out.
@@loubanach9682 then why did you say the hardest thing for you was wrestling Gable? You said in an interview that “Gable can whoop me, and I’m a heavyweight”

7 future Olympic champs in this tourney! Has to be the best finals year ever two sets of eventual Olympic champ brothers.
Still to this day this is some of the best action you will ever see in a heavyweight Collegiate Wrestling Match.
That was an incredible match!
I think Bruce was trying to counter the cradle but didn't get his arm clear.
Lmao. At the 3 minute mark, Banach checked his oil. A move that was frown upon back then.
Other then Steve Mocco, is Lou Banach the only Hawkeye wrestler to win a national title at Heavyweight?

@abbeykroeter
Do you think Gable used to beat up on Banach?
@Hammerin' Hank wasn't Banach outweighed by 60 lbs in this match?
@Hammerin' Hank I just checked. 42 lbs. For some reason, I thought Banach was lighter than what he actually was.
No, I beat Gable rountinely
