Legacy of the Mat

Legacy of the Mat is a collection of stories from the Athletic and Coaching careers of twin brothers Jim and Dave Hazewinkel, two-time Olympic wrestlers.  For years they have shared these stories with family and friends, and now they share them with you.  Read the inspiring stories of these athletes as they smuggle Bibles across the Iron Curtain, coach the West Point Cadets, and witness the 1972 Munich Massacre.  Ride along in the plane that almost didn’t fly and discover how laughter really is the best medicine.
