The word legend gets thrown around a lot but when it comes to wrestling, Dan Gable has earned that label more than just about anybody in the history of the sport.
An Olympic gold medalist and two-time NCAA champion, Gable has represented the United States at the highest levels of the sport and that came before his coaching career where he led the University of Iowa to 15 National Titles while helping to produce 152 All-Americans and 45 national champions.
Just recently, Gable became the first wrestler in history to be awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom — the highest honor a civilian can receive — after a lifetime spent supporting and growing the sport in the United States.
