Doug, you possess such a deep commitment to your dreams. A commitment that I have seen you cultivate with my own eyes. You are an incredible inspiration. There has always been a fire behind your eyes, but I have never seen it burn as bright as it does now. Congratulations on everything beautiful that has come in to your life.....you deserve nothing less!

Schwab is a class act, typical of a home grown corn-fed Osage, Iowa boy. Hope he gets Gold in China. Just to beat the rugged Bill Za says a lot. If Doug's brother Mark didn't have serious knee injuries in his college career at UNI in the late 80's I think he would have been an Olympian too - his best shot woulda been 1992. A tough wrestling family.

Great interview. He is very happy and proud to have made the team, yet he knows what he needs to do in order to bring home a medal. Its great to see how far he has come in the last couple of years.

Doug,
Nakis,
Shut your mouth. You don't know what you're talking about. He beat Za at Nationals, and he beat him here. The wrestlers are both amazing, but Schwab was the better wrestler when it mattered.
We're so proud of you! You do us in Osage and in Iowa very very proud! Your hard work is paying off, and it is an honor knowing you. Congratulations on your olympic berth, your new baby boy, and your new wife!
