    Cozart, Race to go 'On the Mat' this week

    This week's edition of "On the Mat" will feature Russ Cozart and Harley Race.

    Cozart has been the head wrestling coach at Brandon High School in Florida for the past 28 seasons, compiling a 384-1 dual meet record. His teams have won 17 Florida State Team Championships and he has coached 65 individual state champions.

    That one lost was the first for the school in the last 34 years. In that time period Brandon set the longest winning streak in the history of any high school sport of 459 straight wins. This streak was recently documented by ESPN in a two-hour television event entitled "The Streak".

    Race is a member of the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame located in the Dan Gable International Wrestling Institute and Museum. Known as "Handsome Harley Race" for much of his career, the Missouri native was one of the ring's best brawlers, taking on everyone from coast to coast.

    A true legend in the professional wrestling business, Race was an eight-time NWA World champion.

    "On the Mat" is a weekly wrestling radio program that airs every Wednesday night. This week's broadcast can be heard live from 6-7 p.m. Central Standard Time. The Dan Gable International Wrestling Institute and Museum in Waterloo, Iowa, hosts the show.

    "On the Mat" can be heard live on the Internet at www.kcnzam.com or locally in Northeast Iowa on 1650, The Fan. Feel free to e-mail radio@wrestlingmuseum.org with questions or comments about the show.
