Randy Lewis came to my house and stayed for about a week around 1990 when I was a Freshman in H.S. My dad wanted to bring one of the all time best wrestlers to coach us and teach us a few new moves an any other advice he could give. Not only did he help us with wrestling but also danced on our living room to Footloose a few other songs! My little brother and sister loved it!! Not only is he a great wrestler but a great guy too. Between my brothers and myself we had 4 3rd place finishes and 2 state Championships in the state of Illinois. Thanks for your help Randy.

I'm very happy you got to see this interview. I felt the interview showed his great love for Wrestling and his ability to try and do something which would be out of 99.99% of the populations comfort zone.

His technique is one of a kind. He invites guys to take his leg. Its incredible. Pretty much goes against every thing a wrestler is taught.

I am so amazed and proud that a fellow Rapid City Stevens graduate became one of the all time legends of collegiate and Olympic wrestling. I graduated from Stevens in 1972, and i didn't have the opportunity to see Randy wrestle until i saw him on TV and found out he was from South Dakota. Then later i found out he actually graduated from the same HS i graduated from. He was truly a champion, and i thoroughly enjoyed watching him. I thought that he and John Smith were the among the very best!

Glad you enjoyed it! It was one of the more fun interviews I’ve ever done!😊

Very few are more talented in the sport of wrestling than Lewis. This was evident when he made his comeback, wrestling with a huge gut. If he trained properly and was in shape for the regionals, no doubt he would have qualified.

Great wrestler, true champion!

Nice to hear an articulate athlete!
