Kolat beat NCAA Champ Sean O'Day of Edinboro when he was in high school. Kolat was a rare breed!

He was a junior at this point because his parents made him fail eighth grade so he would gain more wrestling experience and maturity

Cross was lethal with those tilts. He couldn't have beaten Brands without them.
