    This week on Takedown Radio: Seiberts, Cody, Santoro, DeMeo, and McCarthy

    WRESTLING! Fall is in the air. The wrestling rooms are being aired out, mats rolled out, new equipment is being unboxed and for some "New" coaches the anticipation is just about over as their respective charges, the young freshmen athletes head to the many varied collegiate campuses across this great country. Talk about a run on sentence but I did have to get it out. I get charged up thinking about all the possibilities last years changes will bring this year and for seasons to come. WRESTLING!

    This week on TDR:

    The new head coach of American International College Yellow Jackets Chaz Seiberts joins us to tell us of his hopes, dreams and plans for the Yellow Jackets 15 year old program. Seiberts the first full time coach in the programs history was hired after a stretch at UNC Pembroke under P.J. Smith. Seiberts replaced Shirzad Ahmadi.

    Mark Cody, third year head coach of the Eagles of American University, will join us to share how he plans on topping last years break out team performance. Things will never be the same on the campus of this important college in our nations capital, Washington, D.C.
    Coach and Mrs. Cody are also enjoying the arrival of yet another little wrestler who loves the night life so to speak. No rest for the wicked I guess. Congratulations!

    Next we head down the road to what used to be rural Maryland. Not any more. You never really leave the city and its hard to tell where one community ends and another begins as you head to College Park. The Wrestling Terrapins of the University of Maryland are headed by Pat Santoro. The Terrapin faithful are a patient lot. Will this be the year for the squad to break out and realize all the dreams of their head coach. Tune in and find out!

    The UFC has experienced tremendous growth and with the number of wrestlers active within this organization and others like it one must wonder if the future for wrestling professionals isn't a career in the octagon. The UFC's top competition official, Big John McCarthy joins us for a look at Saturday nights UFC 62 pay per view LIVE from Las Vegas, NV
