Umbeuhauer crying after thrilling victory over Keddy in Quarters

What a wimp! If I had just won the quarters, I'd be celebrating with a beer and some groupies in the back. Then I'd crush Pucillo and Herbert and fly off to Vegas!
That's what I did when I placed 6th in our JV regional. You gotta know how to roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This has all the elements of a great story! You can't blame Umbehauer one bit for crying. Throughout all of his career, he'd been so close on so many occasions and then he finally does it! All the hard work, all of the sacrifices, all of the dedication, the determination paying off. This is freakin awesome. Anyone who can't see that, has never sacrificed, worked hard, or giving up so much in their life for a goal.

what a kid man, what a champion..... a true wrestler... SUPERMAN.

What's your excuse for the 3rd place match?

Increadible perfromance Doug! Love the raw emotion... visually shows the level of intensity and commitment required to get there... others would do well to learn from you... You make us proud! Welcome to Rider's "got my picture on the wall" club... Lucky # 13...

i know you arent supposed to cry but whos going to tell him otherwise, he did great. it's kinda like cejudo in the olympics; nobody in the world could tell him to stop cryin cause he beat them(except his momma)

Doug,

Forget the haters. Enjoy your victory. You did Lenape proud by going further than any wrestler in its history.
Forget comparisons to these multi-state champ pedigrees. You got there on hard work and gristle.
Mike

thats because we had two national chapions, a runner upo and a handful of all americans in this one tournament come from Jersey. What other state did that? Hater....

Haha, a New Yawkuh calling people from another state annoying and irritating! Go drive your shiney Escalade into the Hudson River

...lol by showing modesty that means that you think they ARE as great as they say?
hahah chillout man...NJ is great, So are others, if it bothers u then chant for another state
otha wise...chillaaxxx

jaggers didnt cry because he was a blue chip recruit out of highschool who was born with the talent to be an all american. doug wasn't even a state champ who trained and sacrificed and went through a lot of adversity to get on that podium and deserves to celebrate it however he needed to.

Also jaggers tear ducts might have been dried up from the tanning beds hes been in lately

This is why we love this sport. Only 80 young men in the entire country got to be where he was this year. Awesome stuff.

Stop being a hater.

can all these jersey kids stop going on about how you love yourselves, jersey is home to probably some of the most irritating and annoying people in the world. i dont ever see people from other states on these videos going on about how great their state is, show some modesty.

Anonymous coward is a good name for you. . . you obviously did not see the match or are from IOWA.

Won this by a piss poor call by the official.

great job doug, way to get it done not once, but twice man(how do you think goodman feels now...much better than a state title).

Don't say strong men don't cry
in the bible

John chapter 11 verse 35 it says "Jesus wept."
Enough said

Doug, ONLY REAL MEN CRY! You are an awesome wrestler and a great man. You are a role model to so many wrestlers. The coaches are great at Rider and do care for the wrestlers, it is obvious! Congratulations to your parents.
Enjoy the moment!
GO BRONCS!

jaggers didnt cry

thats sweet, doesnt take anything away from his performance at all. He had an emotional win in the quarterfinals.

Whats even more impressive is that he beat the same guy again to take 3rd.

Jersey Fresh !! dougy you the man

hes not crying those are tears of victory

Great journalism being able to capture this without infringing on his moment. Nothing wrong at all with it. I'm sure he's not embarrassed by it. Beating Keddy was a nice upset - and gets him the coveted All-American status that he will always have attached to his name.

Umbrehauer you complete stud!!!! Do it man!!! Go get third place!

time to take down the stick figure drawing he has up where the all-american pics at rider go and put a real one up... nice work doug, rider, coach taylor and of course john hangey

Having wrestled for HC Gary Taylor, I can't tell you how real that scene is. I only wish we could get him to the finals.....Don Fisch close in2007....Doug close today. He is total class and loves his guys.

That's called spilling your guts and having nothing left.

Envy is a pretty good word to describe it.

I've never cried like that from being some happy, I'm actually envious.

Anyone who thinks he's a whimp for crying, he could more than likely take you down.

Is it really necessary to film him crying?

Hey great job Doug! New Jersey is proud of you! Awesome to see a guy who cares that much.

TRUELLY NICE TO SEE GREAT JOB

THATS AWESOME SHOWS YOU WHAT KIND OF A KID HE IS.tHATS WHAT YOU CALL LEAVING IT ALL ON THE MAT.CONGRATS MAN .EXCELLENT VICTORY NOW FINISH YOUR DREAMS

Props, guy.

he better not get too excited, he's still got a semi-final coming up! Winning the whole thing would be even more fun than being an AA:)

the tears should help for the weight cut tomorrow. Good luck tonight..go Jersey!

awesome.

Really cool to see raw emotion. Congratulations on your win over Keddy!

sooo awesome. this shows how much heart he poured into his wrestling

He deserved it. He kept wrestling and Keddy quit. Congratulation Doug. Now go kick Pucillo's a$$.

"this fool got lucky watch the match...he stalled the whole time in overtime..."

Ya, but he's in the national semi's...where are you ?

this fool got lucky watch the match...he stalled the whole time in overtime...

wow, way to be extra stalkerish/poparattzish

this is what its all about

A touchstone moment is Flo Footage.

thats what wrestling is all about. that shows everyone the true dedication that doug has. way to rep NJ. JERSEY FRESH all the way baby!

beautiful

Serious wrestlers understand this goes right to the heart of passion and dedication....You'd only understand it if you ever wanted anything so bad, you'd make the personally deprivating sacrifices needed, and for as many years as it takes, to get that thing. The amazing thing is that wrestlers do it for no gain other than what they expect of themselves. This is what makes the sport special and like no other.

congrats doug....good job and good luck in the semis...make jersey proud

congrats on the AA but keddy really wrestled like crap the whole match...

that gives me chills, you know that wrestling is this guys world and it is paying off.

Congrats Umbeuhauer, way to represent NJ! Nothing wrong with some emotion after a victory like that.

when you give everything you have, everyday. For the opportunity to achieve something few have done. And you accomplish some feat that is comparable to beating Phil Keddy in 7 minutes of wrestling. You deserve to cry. I dont blame him.

If you've ever achieved anything significant in this sport before in your life, then you wouldn't question "why" they filmed this....

awesome moment!

Why show this? Because it shows another side and dimension of the sport. Wrestlers are suppossed to be tough and stoic, so it's nice to see the contrast. I think it's touching! Great bond between athlete and coach

I cried when i made it to state so, who cares hes an AA

wrestling is emotional. I see nothing wrong with him releasing this emotion, he put everything he had into this match. but, ya, it's personal. Congrats on a great match!

anyone who knows how much is put into this sport would not blame him for crying. Congrats on the AA honor Umbehauer. (even tho you beat one of my hawks)

why do u film this.

I really don't know why they have this
