2010 World Team freestyle members Jake Herbert and Travis Paulson will be radio show guests this week.

“On the Mat" is a presentation of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame Dan Gable Museum and can be heard live on the Internet at www.kcnzam.com or locally in Northeast Iowa each Wednesday from 5:00 - 6:00 PM Central time on AM 1650, The Fan. Feel free to e-mail radio@wrestlingmuseum.org with any questions or comments about the show. 

Jake Herbert won a World silver medal last year, just six months after winning his second NCAA championship at 184 pounds for Northwestern University. A four-time All-American, Herbert also won the prestigious Dan Hodge Trophy in 2009, awarded to the most dominant college wrestler in the nation. Herbert will be competing in the 185 pound freestyle division at the World Championships in Moscow, Russia on Sept. 11. 

Travis Paulson will represent the United States in the 163 pound freestyle division at the World Championships. He will compete on Sept. 12. At the World Team Trials in June, in his hometown of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Paulson defeated his twin brother, Trent, in the finals of the challenge tournament. This was the only time Travis and Trent have ever wrestled in competition. The twins were both three-time All-Americans at Iowa State University.
