CHROMEBIRD Posted May 3 Posted May 3 Looks pretty nice! I'm envious of those who get to experience "new wrestling room smell"... which no doubt will be completely gone after one day of practice there I think people are commenting on the windows because it's such a contrast to with the new UNI wrestling room design? 1

It looks tacky. Plus how much energy are they going to have to burn to get that mammoth building up to 90 degrees for wrestling practice?

Everyone has independently thought a wrestling room is terrible if it doesn't have natural light and the same facility would be better if it had windows. Always the number one thing you hear when talking about a facility, "whats the window situation" Thank goodness Cael, JB, John Smith, etc. all lifted and trained in naturally lit buildings that led to their gold medals success.... In my wrestling career I NEVER saw a wrestling room with a window and I know for a fact that John Smith's college wrestling room didn't have any windows I know you were being facetious about wrestling rooms with "natural light", but have you actually seen a room like that?

1032004 Posted May 5 Posted May 5 This facility will be used by the women also correct? Are the women not part of HWC? I noticed at trials the athletes were listed as “Iowa Womens Wrestling Club”

I never wrestled in a wrestling room with Windows. Campbell University has a wrestling room with natural light coming in from Windows. In my opinion it makes a huge difference. Also state of the art weights, equipment, and locker room. Wrestlers lounge with study area. https://express.adobe.com/page/r6GhdjA9CiDak/ Edited May 5 by Santos 1

Pretty nice, a lot better than the dank, stinky pits I practiced in.

NM1965 Posted May 6 Posted May 6 8 hours ago, MPhillips said: Wow, Ohio State's facility looks very cheery. That in itself means it's not worthy of being a wrestling room. Wrestling rooms should be dank, hot, stinky, oppressive, and overly well lit so the lights burn your retinas if you give up a turn.

Wisconsin... It's the same room it has been for 50 years probably, but it's got great natural light. It was absolutely unbearably hot in the summer. I remember a heat wave with temps up to ~100, black mats, the sun beating in. Room was ~120 or so. I went from ~165 to about ~141 and...as I'm saying that, I'm realizing how PERFECT that would have been for John Smith! 1
gimpeltf Posted May 6 Posted May 6 Both of Lehigh's rooms have/had outside light. The older one in particular had this architecturally interesting huge window. Old room (remade since Caruso) 1
