Already this November, five young men have made their career dual debuts and one - Tommy Thorn (141) - has earned a spot in the national rankings (currently No. 12 via InterMat). An anomaly in this year s lineup tied to youth it s likely that the majority of Minnesota s duals will not feature a single senior wrestling for the Gophers, something that hasn t happened in many years. Life Begins at 30 Minnesota Head Coach J Robinson is entering his 30th season at the helm of Gopher Wrestling. Robinson took over for Wally Johnson (who coached at Minnesota for 34 seasons) and has surpassed almost every mark posted by his legendary predecessor. Robinson has overseen only two losing seasons in his Gopher career, a run buoyed by 23 straight winning campaigns. His 433 career wins are the most among all active, Division I coaches and his achievements (three national titles, six conference titles, and more than 120 All-Americans) are unprecedented in Minnesota history. Start Em Young Between the Gophers and the Falcons, as many as nine true or redshirt freshmen could wrestle in Saturday s dual. As the bout card currently stands, at least five wrestlers - a full quarter of the total starting lineups - will be freshmen: Skyler Petry (125), Tommy Thorn (141), Miles Patton (149) and Dylan Urbach (165) for Minnesota and Alex Lopouchanski (165) for Air Force. Patton and Lopouchanski were both wrestling high school matches at this time last year. Always in Your Corner At last week s Northeast Duals, Larry Early III stood in the same room as Greco Bouzakis, a four-year-old wrestler with a rare form of cancer, for the first time. Early had raised money for Bouzakis as a class project in high school and remained in contact with him and his family, developing a bond so strong that Early sent Bouzakis the stop sign he won in Fargo last summer. For the full story, visit z.umn. edu/wrgreco. Series History Saturday will be the seventh all-time meeting between the Gophers and the Falcons. Minnesota is a perfect 6-0 in these matchups. In their first trip to Colorado Springs in 33 years, the Gophers knocked off the Academy last November, This season marks just the second time Minnesota and Air Force have ever wrestled head-tohead in consecutive seasons. /GopherWrestling
