Who knew Vick was a Minnesota high school wrestler?
There aren't many reasons why a state athletic association would consider suspending all high school wrestling matches for over a week. Why here in Georgia they wouldn't cancel sports, they'd cancel school instead... to save gas money. However, one good reason would seem to be a giant outbreak of herpes.
At least 24 cases of Herpes Gladiatorum have been confirmed. Officials first became aware of the outbreak after a tournament in Rochester in December. Since, 10 teams have reported wrestlers with skin lesions involving the face, head or neck.
Just what kind of wrestling are they doing up there? I dunno if I'd want to get back on the mats if I was a wrestler up there. Or I'd at least wait until they make them cleaner than say, a San Francisco bath house. Btw, here's a tip, never under any circumstances type herpes into Google images. :shudder:
