Another Trivia Question: I watched the match when John Sonderegger of the Univ. of Missouri won a Big Eight Title in 1984. Question is who did he beat ?
Hint the person he beat went on the win the NCAA title the same year.
Kenny Monday from Oklahoma State.
Here is more on that:
http://www.wrestlingstats.com/big8/pdf/Big%208-1984.pdfMonday would still get the top seed at the NCAA's and Sonderegger the 8th seed, thus they met in the quarters, where Monday would pin Sonderegger. Sonderegger lost to Urbano of Arizona State 7-2 for 4th.
Also...John Smith was runner up in the 1984 Big 8 tournament too! Wound up not placing at NCAA's because of the old pull through method where if you lost on the front, the guy that beat you had to make the semis. Legend Rocky Bonomo wound up with similar fate, although he was pulled through and just didn't do well!
