Mark Schultz v. Mike Sheets 1988 Olympic Trials, Match 2

[Braedanleong]

those dudes singlets look way to small

[LittleTommyMonson]

Mark was a superb physical speciman but a lot more technically sound and slick than most give him credit for. Really smooth in a lot of moves and often turns opponents moves back on them as he dominates so often. Smart, intelligent wrestling, not just his strength coming into play.

that's great!

I remember that night Mike beat Dave. Mike now coaches youth wrestling in Stilwell Oklahoma.

Mark was so powerful. Seeing Dave helping Mark during the break is sad. They were a lot of fun to watch, and Dave is missed.

Wow, this brings back a lot of memories. I loved watching Mike wrestle in college. I remember when Mike beat Mark in Stillwater and it started a roll of defeats. It was a great night.

[alanmanship]

Mike beat Dave, he never beat Mark.....

[notestonian]

You are so correct. It was Dave, not Mark. Overall great wrestling.  I was so sad to hear of Tommy Chesbro's death. OSU - such wonderful history.

How could Sheets beat Dave when Dave is more accomplished than Mark and Mark owns him?
