#7	Jim Wiehe August 17 at 1:04pm Meet Mr. Simons at Virginia Beach on August 10th of 2009. We both were riding bikes on the boardwark. He recognized my wife's INDIANA STATE T-shirt and stopped to talk. I did not really realize who I was talking too until I got home and did some investigating on the net. It was a real pleasure to talk to such a great wrestler and coach....;. reply
