2 x ASICS 1st Team member  Alex Meade & former #1 Overall Recruit Mario Mason went head to head this weekend. Both RAW 241 Alums were part of one the early season battles in Division 1 wrestling. Mason grapples for the Golden Gophers of Minnesota, while Meade level changes for the Cowboys of Oklahoma St.

The  two storied programs ( Minn/#8 & OSU/#5) met in Ok. for a monster show down.

Mario faced Quinten Fuentes @ 149 lbs. ( who lost to Jordan Burroughs in '06/NHSCA Final) and hit him with a wide array of RAW skills on his way to a complete and controlled victory. Mason has not lost this year.

Meade was critical in OSU's chance to win the dual as he faced NCAA Champion/World team member, Dustin Schlatter. Dustin was a mere 4 x Ohio State champion in hs as well as finishing undefeated ( including a win over Metcalf in the NHSCA finals). Dustin then went on to Minneapolis to garner an NCAA title as a true freshman....so, the r/s Freshman ( Meade) had to face off vs. the 5th yr. Sr., Schlatter @ 165 lbs.....follow link below:
