USA Wrestling has updated its new "Bout of the Week" which has been posted as a video file on-line on  TheMat.com Audio/Video website .    The feature this week are the 1999 Terry Brands vs. Eric Guerrero men's freestyle matches from the Championship Series at the Freestyle World Team Trials in Seattle, Wash.    This match has been placed on the TheMat.com's new Audio/Video website, which was the former USA Wrestling Member's Only website. The new website has been redesigned and reformatted and was launched today. It is an exciting upgrade that will better serve the wrestling community and provides cutting-edge technology.    This feature includes both matches of the best-of-three series between these two talented wrestlers, both who were ultimately members of future Olympic teams. Brands entered the tournament as the top athlete in the division, a past two-time World Champion, but was going through a challenging period in his career. Guerrero was a young talent, aiming for  a chance to establish himself as a top star.    Both athletes had long and storied careers working their way to this battle in Seattle. Terry Brands was a high school star in Iowa, and along with his twin brother Tom, made a major impact on the college level at the Univ. of Iowa. Competing for the legendary Dan Gable, Terry Brands won two NCAA titles and Tom Brands won three NCAA titles, wrestling with a fierce competitiveness that became legendary on the college scene.    The Brands brothers took that intensity into their international freestyle careers. Both were able to capture their weight classes at the 1993 World Team Trials, and then won a World gold medal in Toronto, Canada in their first major Senior-level event. From that point on, the Brands brothers held tightly to their position at the top of the division. In 1994, both Brands brothers were defeated at the World Championships and did not place. In 1995, Terry put together a strong World Championships in Atlanta, Ga., qualifying for the finals, where he defeated Canada's Giya Sissaouri in the gold-medal match, scoring key points late in the bout on Sissaouri's fleeing from Brands constant onslaught.     The 1996 year was a major disappointment for Terry Brands. While brother Tom made the Olympic team and reached his goal of winning the Olympic gold, Terry was on the sidelines at the Atlanta Games. Kendall Cross defeated Brands in the U.S. Nationals finals. At the Olympic Team Trials, Brands and Cross had one of the most intense finals series of all time, with Cross winning a heated three-match showdown. Cross made history by winning the Olympic gold medal.    While Tom retired, Terry continued continued to wrestle, but ran into injuries and other challenges in the next quadrennium. In 1997, Brands won the U.S. Nationals but did not compete in the World Championships. After taking some time off, Brands returned in 1999 and won the U.S. Nationals again, giving him the No. 1 spot going into the World Team Trials.     Guerrero entered this showdown with an impressive background. He won three California state high school titles, and was a Cadet World champion in freestyle coming through the youth ranks. At Oklahoma State, Guerrero continued his excellence, winning three NCAA titles for Oklahoma State under the legendary John Smith. He quickly made an impact on the international freestyle scene, placing third at the 1998 U.S. Nationals and World Team Trials. In 1999, Guerrero was again third at the U.S. Nationals, with Brands as the national champion and veteran Tony Purler as the runner-up. At the World Team Trials, Guerrero won the Challenge Tournament and earned the right to face Brands for the position on the World Team.    The two matches of the Brands vs. Guerrero series were completely different, with Brands winning a close battle in match one, and opening it up in match two. The victory gave Brands a spot on both the Pan American Games and World Teams that year. However, Brands had physical challenges during training, and did not compete at either event. Guerrero placed second at the Pan American Games, then finished seventh at the World Championships, his first taste of the international spotlight.    Many believed that Brands had finished his career when he did not compete at the 1999 World Championship. In 2000, Brands did not go to the U.S. Nationals. However, he made a comeback at the 2000 Olympic Trials and earned a spot on the U.S. Olympic Team, defeating Kerry Bowmans in another memorable series. Guerrero was third at the Olympic Trials in Dallas. At the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, Brands won an Olympic medal. It was a bronze medal, after a tough loss to Iranian superstar Ali Reza Dabir in the semifinals. Brands was not satisfied taking third, saying his only goal was to come home with the "yellow medal." However, after this Olympic achievement, Brands' competitive career was over.    Guerrero immediately claimed this weight class to start the next four-year cycle, winning the U.S. Nationals and World Team Trials in 2001. He did not place at the 2001 World Championships. In 2002, Guerrero made the U.S. World Team again, only to stay back in the USA when the entire U.S. team did not compete at the World Championships in Tehran, Iran, due to a credible threat of violence against the team that came directly from the U.S. government.    In 2003, Guerrero had his next chance at the World level, competing for the U.S. at the Freestyle World Championships in Madison Square Garden in New York City. He placed 10th in the World Championships there, losing an emotional bout prior to the medal rounds. Guerrero had proven his international skills at many other events, winning the 2003 World Cup and capturing the bronze medal at the 2003 Pan American Games. He had developed a rivalry with Canada's Sissaouri (who Brands beat in 1995 World finals), in which Sissaouri held an edge in their head-to-head battles.    In 2004, Guerrero continued controlling his division domestically, winning both the U.S. Nationals and Olympic Team Trials, using his experience and skills to defeat talented newcomer Mike Zadick in the finals. At the Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, Guerrero had a challenging pool with tough competitors. He opened with a 3-1 overtime loss to World medalist Purevbaator Oyunbileg of Mongolia, then suffered another 3-1 overtime loss to veteran talent David Pogosian of Georgia, and was unable to move out of the pool competition.    Since finishing his college career, Brands pursued a coaching career, working assistant stints at the Univ. of Iowa, the Univ. of Nebraska and the Univ. of Montana-Northern. In 2002, he accepted the head coaching job for the Univ. of Chattanooga-Tennessee, and has helped build that program into a competitive and nationally respected team on the NCAA Div. I level. USA Wrestling announced in April 2005 that Brands was hired as the National Freestyle Resident Coach, and he will be taking over those important duties this spring.    Guerrero has not wrestled since the Athens Games, and there is a possibility that he has finished his competitive career. He remains involved as a coach in the Oklahoma State program, where he helped his mentor John Smith develop the most dominant team in college wrestling for three straight seasons. If Guerrero returns to competition, he will remain a top star, capable of winning that World-level medal that has eluded him to this point in his career.    This popular feature will be changed on a regular basis, allowing members to enjoy many of the greatest matches in wrestling history.
