Olympic wrestling trials Kelsey Campbell Jordan Burroughs Henry Cejudo,[url=http://authenticrogerviviershoes.halod.com/][b]authentic roger vivier shoes for sale[/b][/url]
The look on her face could only be described as shocked: shocked she had beaten the top seed in her weight class at the 2012 Olympic wrestling trials, and shocked that the sport she taken up on a bet a bet that she wouldn last two weeks,[url=http://woolrichparkaschweiz.albirank.net/][b]Woolrich Parka Schweiz Online Shop cheap woolrich winter coats woolen mills[/b][/url], wrestling against the boys was now sending her to the 2012 Summer Games in London.
The announcer at Carver-Hawkeye Arena trumpeted the 26-year-old as, for the first time, an Olympian. Campbell jumped from the mat into her coach arms, telling him she couldn believe she won.
have to keep asking myself, this just happen? Campbell said moments later. you all see that happen? It unreal. There are not words to describe what I feeling. were not words to describe what her opponent was feeling, either, as 20-year-old Helen Maroulis wrapped her head in a towel not 10 feet away, shading her tears from the cameras.
These are the stories of the dozens of Olympic trials going on in the months before the Summer Games: Most athletes dreams ending in defeat, a few in triumph. In Iowa City this weekend, a field of more than 220 Olympic wrestling hopefuls was quickly whittled down to a team of 18 winners.
And at this moment, just beside the mat, Maroulis was grappling with the fact that she wasn one of the winners. But Campbell was, and she couldn wait to get out of here, get away from the cameras and call her mother and her father.
just dream about this, she said, wiping her eyes with a T-shirt. dream about this. And it just a dream. Until it happens, it just an idea. team, like Campbell,[url=http://duveticajacketsoutlet.olimx.com/][b]http://duveticajacketsoutlet.olimx.com/[/b][/url], arriving in London in July will be the achievement of a lifetime, and they met that achievement with tears of joy. Sure, they want to come home with a medal,[url=http://monclerjackenoutletonlineshop.albirank.net/][b]http://monclerjackenoutletonlineshop.albirank.net/[/b][/url], but these trials were what they been building up to. Olympian with a smile and a shrug, as if it were expected.
That was Jordan Burroughs, the 163-pounder who won gold at last year world championships and who at 23 is considered America best chance for wrestling gold in London. That was Dremiel Byers, the 37-year-old heavyweight Greco-Roman former world champion who made his second Olympic team.
And that was Jake Varner. Varner, a two-time NCAA wrestling champion, had just made the Olympic team in the 211 weight class. to watch Cael Sanderson win gold in Athens. Yet Varner seemed composed, even mellow, in the face of the attention.
not about being an Olympian, the 26-year-old said. shouldn just want to be an Olympian. You should want to be an Olympic champion. I am excited. But I know you can be an Olympic champion without doing this first. this going to an Olympics to represent their country was something that would be in all of these wrestlers obituaries. The shine of being touched by the Olympics lasts a lifetime.
Coleman Scott,[url=http://duveticapiumini.olimx.com/][b]Duvetica piumini italy online piumini duvetica outlet duvetica jackets shop[/b][/url], a 26-year-old in the 132-pound division in men freestyle and a former NCAA champion for Oklahoma State, was still huffing and puffing Saturday night, moments after beating Logan Stieber to win the trials. had yet to qualify for the 2012 Summer Games.
Yet the Olympic shine still was rubbing off. As Scott waited to be interviewed by NBC Sports,[url=http://parajumperssalefreeshipping.webmium.com/][b]parajumpers sale free shipping Hampton Roads Technology Council for sale[/b][/url], fans tossed down Olympic ball caps and Sharpies. Scott signed them and tossed them back. He was already thinking about the next three months of training and of qualifying to make London.
is my first step, he said. got one more. so by Sunday night, 16 spots on the Olympic wrestling team were filled, with two more weight classes still up in the air. The best stories of USA Wrestling past didn make this year team. Sanderson, the 2004 Olympic gold medalist who just coached Penn State to its second straight national title,[url=http://giuseppezanottimenssneakers.webmium.com/][b]giuseppe zanotti sneakers men 2013[/b][/url], had been pondering an Olympic comeback at age 32 but decided against it. Kurt Angle, the 1996 gold medalist who was attempting an Olympic comeback at age 43,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/[/b][/url], got injured before the trials. Andre Metzger, the 52-year-old three-time medalist at world championships, lost his first match in the 163-pound Greco-Roman division.
Cejudo mother,[url=http://giuseppezanottimenssneakers.webmium.com/][b]New Fall/Winter 2013 Collection[/b][/url], an illegal immigrant from Mexico, hadn been able to see her son compete in the 2008 Summer Games because she didn have her citizenship. He gained fame as the only American wrestler to win gold in Beijing, and he used that fame to advocate for immigration reform. Since then,[url=http://peutereyjackenherrenoutlet.albirank.net/][b]http://peutereyjackenherrenoutlet.albirank.net/[/b][/url], his mother, Nelly Rico, gained her citizenship,[url=http://woolrichoutletdeutschland.olimx.com/][b]Woolrich Blizzard Parka Deutschland Woolrich Arctic Parka Outlet Deutschland[/b][/url], and Cejudo was excited at the possibility of his mother traveling to London to watch him chase another gold.
But after two wins on Sunday morning, Cejudo lost in the semifinals in the 121-pound division. To a rousing ovation, Cejudo took off his shoes symbolic of his retirement from wrestling and threw them into the stands.
Afterward,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada outlet shop duvetica down jackets online sale[/b][/url], Cejudo sat at a podium before a crowd of reporters. He put his head in his hands for nearly a minute, unable to speak,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica down jackets online sale[/b][/url], then he looked up.
sport has given me everything, he said. tomorrow the sun going to rise, I going to wake up and be happy that I in America. will Jared Frayer. Frayer has a wrestling career marked by his almost-theres: second place at the World Team Trials in both 2006 and 2009, runner-up in the 2001 NCAA championships, near-misses in two previous Olympic trials. But on Sunday evening he defeated Brent Metcalf in the 145 weight class, and he became an Olympian.
Afterward, he said he hopes his perseverance is a lesson for his 16-month-old daughter, Khloe. She has Down's syndrome,[url=http://peutereyjackenherrenoutlet.albirank.net/][b]Peuterey Jacken Herren Outlet Peuterey Jacke Damen Sale Online[/b][/url], and Frayer knows his challenges will pale in comparison to hers.
He be thinking of her in London,[url=http://duveticacanadashop.halod.com/][b]duvetica jackets canada outlet shop[/b][/url], but she won be there to watch him. Neither will Frayer wife. She pregnant and due on Aug. 7 right in the middle of the Olympic wrestling events. It OK, though. His wife has told him that London is where she wants him to be.
