- See Less -Brent Metcalf is one of the most anticipated recruits to enter college. He was undefeated in high school wrestling with 4 Michigan state titles. He also earned 6 junior national titles in the Olympic style of wrestling. College fans across the nation had to wait an extra year to see his return because he transfered to Iowa and was denied his freshman season by his former school. In 2008 he won the 149lb National Championship and was named the Dan Hodge Trophy winner.
Equally important, in regards to Brent Metcalf specifically, by breaking his opponent mentally during this match, later matches will likely be dominated to a greater extent, and the chance of his opponent going out and wrestling the greatest match of his life and somehow beating Metcalf is reduced exponentially.
