Mustang wrestlers sneak past Cal Baptist

Is there actually anything going on here tonight? Walking into Mott Gym on Friday night, the lights were dark, save for a single spotlight, hanging down from the center of the curved old-school aircraft carrier-style ceiling.

The spotlight illuminates the center of a wrestling mat, shrouding the stands and basically everything else in the gym in darkness.

In some wrestling arenas, the spotlight brings a rowdy, loud fan base. In Mott Gym, it was almost eerily quiet. It’s an atmosphere I think people could get into, especially if it was a little rowdier. Definitely nothing really like it in sports.

Not knowing anything about wrestling, the scoring of wrestling, or even who was doing really well at any one time, a recap can be found here.
