I was in high school same time as them and I remember hearing about how packed this gym was just for these 2. Legendary at the time and still legendary today.

Jeff Jordan said this was the greatest match he’s ever coached. I believe him.

Man I love that. There’s nothing like high school wrestling for a young man to be an individual champion amongst the team.

Never gets old, seen this match at least 5 times.

This video only confirmed for me how much I love wrestling.

I went to a Collin Palmer camp 2 years ago. Insanely knowledgeable and freakishly athletic, it sucks that he suffered from so many injuries.

I wrestled for Mead high school in spokane washington in the late 80's, during the Vision Quest era (the movie was filmed there), and let me tell you...EVERY match looked like this. Absolutely packed gyms going wild. My glory days, I miss them.

That skinny kid grew into an NCAA champ and Olympic favorite. What a monster he is now.

The real goat is the guy behind the camera giving us play by play

Worth the price of admission as they say.

Definitely a wrestling town. You would never see a crowd that size at an average high school for a wrestling match.

This just makes me miss the crowds at wrestling matches. It's weird having Duels in gyms with empty bleachers.

I was there it was an electric atmosphere everybody knew what was gonna happen so it was awesome as always between Graham and Saint Ed’s with David Taylor and Colin Palmer being the icing on cake!

This match would have been amazing to see in person.

I used to think Thomas Edison's "the sneeze" was the oldest video in existence, but then I came upon this.

The Palmers were unreal on a different level my brother wrestled with Lance so got to see them decent amount good times

Such a shame Collin had to stop wrestling because of injuries. He was supposed to be the next big thing like David.

That's me all the way at the top, in the middle. You can hear me and my brother yelling after the stall call.

What a flippen match 👏!

I could only dream of a crowd like that at our high school

Some vision quest stuff right there.

2 great wrestlers

What year? What was the score?

The Baby Face Assassin- David Taylor 👏 👏 👏 👏

I was there. It was one of the best matches I’ve seen

I was there, what a moment!

I remember sitting n the edge of the stage watching this, that place was packed and big Dwayne jumping rooting. Dave defended that chancher like a beast.

The mat looks so small After watching so many college matches on youtube.

DT also gave Logan Steiber his only high school loss

Love this match up! Not exactly Vision Quest. I think Taylor was the man everyone feared. ;-)

That was bad-ass.

Badass move, coming from a fellow wrestler!

Insane

Dude recording seemed super pumped and then bummed

My dad was a 27 time state champ

Great reffin

Historic hammer match

Itd be nice if the info gave us basic info like what year this was from. Duh.

240p go crazyyyy

Collin had injuries, David had Kyle Dake. Neither could overcome the other.

this is some *quintessentially midwestern* shit right here! xD fantastic wrestling...lol, i just googled david taylor, and he's quite the accomplished wrestler, so not surprising.

I believe this year was when Collins back problems started hampering him. Such a shame.

This gives me chills still. If you were an Ohio wrestler, you know how cool this was

This shit is intense. Just like now, it's hard to maintain Taylor's level for the entire match and the opponent fades.

Who won?

I remember this was a huge deal in high school. St Paris Graham was mythical for Ohio wrestling

Memories of the era. Packed tiny gym where very one knew everyone and would do anything for anyone in those little gyms.

Im from Minnesota, we used to go to the Apple Valley wrestling tournaments...people talk about how packed this gym was...youve never seen a gym packed until you see Apple Valley wrestling

St. Ed's and Graham..

Never heard of Palmer

Zeb miller is a god on the Mic. Hes so Ohio

They grew up and wrestled in 2 different states. Nevada and Ohio. How did they meet in High school? Great match by the way! Glad Taylor beat Burroughs last week too!

Who is Collin Palmer?

Bogus stalling call @8:05

Why does Flo Wrestling have the rights to this video?

Taylor is gigantic lmao. To this day I believe he cuts 50lbs a tournament...

There is a funny story behind this. According to Jordan he had tried to contact the coach of St. Eds three times before finally getting a response. Jordan who wasn't exactly fond of St. Eds tells their coach. I'm sorry but you'll have to call me back two more times. So the St. Eds coach calls him back and is like "are you serious right now" and Jordan responds with "that's two" and hangs up. So the St. Eds coach calls again and Jordan responds "that's three."

Superspreader event!!

Warning this video was filmed on a potato.....lol

Taylor looked way bigger than collin just wonder if weight was correct?🤔

scrubs. Matches like this in Iowa in front of packed gyms every week. No "special attraction" needed.

David Taylor, stud then, stud now. No fear about wrestling the best, which is why he's an Olympic champion.
