Fresno State Wrestling Supporters Take It To The Streets!
I was sent a series of links to my MySpace account by the folks running the MySpace account for the wrestling publication InterMat. They are of several articles about the struggle of the Fresno State wrestling community to stop the planned closing of their Div. I program.
The struggle is being spearheaded by an ad hoc group called Save Fresno State Wrestling. They led a protest march of almost 500 people Wednesday night on the home of Fresno State president John Welty.
Photos from the protest are here.
TheMat.com, the world's best wrestling web page, ran an article on the demonstration here.
And the Fresno Bee ran an article called "Wrestling supporters target Welty".
It's good to see the college kids in the streets where they belong. I did it back in the day, and continue to participate in various struggles for social justice.
All supporters of the combat sports should do what they can to help save Fresno State wrestling.
