Or 2nd or 3rd, but on the 5th page!!!! Do you remember what was on the front page? It was an article about baseball losing!!!!!!!!! How does wrestling get any exposure when the articles about them doing so well are put in the back of the paper? Why does the GT report only the bad things in our community, or give the bad more publicity than the good? In Corvallis, we are a small community and i think that it would benefit more to have positive things reported with at least the same frequency as the bad.

It was 6 on 2 and the wrestlers were obviously defending themselves. The trouble is that not all the facts have been brought out bu Ms. Beck and she making the kids look bad. It is defamation of character!

Have you never met a regular Joe like yourself who has no particular athletic ability that is a grade A a-hole? Just because he got into a fight, which happens all the time in college towns around the nation, he deserves to have the book thrown at him? You do not know the facts or what happened at all. In the police report it shows that there were five men on bicycles who fought against the two wrestlers. It is not right. The only reason that the two guys got punished is because they won a fight. ... . JoeAvezzano-- just because these guys are athletes does not mean that they deserve to be punished to the full extent of the law when other students would get a slap on the wrist. ckirkpatrick: I think that it is BS that you even put this article up. This altercation happened last May! Get over it! The GT should not still be reporting on it ... This should not be what is focused on when the team has been doing better than any other team at OSU. The article should have been on the six wrestlers who qualified to wrestle at the NCAA National Tournament.
