#22 Barbara Brummet - Technical Explanation Show

Barbara Brummet is a wrestling official from Missouri who has been blazing a trail for women's wrestling and officiating since 1971 when she first fell in love with wrestling. Barbara went to all of the wrestling matches at a large school in Missouri that attended wrestling meets and cheered (yes, it wasn't just a thing in Vision Quest.) Barbara gained a huge respect for wrestlers and the tenacity and what it takes to be a competitor. At one point she reflects on asking herself in high school, "What would make a person want to do this?" In her episode, she talks about the individual and team aspects of wrestling and what it teaches young men and women. Beginning her wrestling officiating career she fell even deeper in love with the sport of wrestling. As you can imagine, being a female wrestling official in the '90s was a rare feat. Barbara tells some of the experiences she has had as a female official in a male-dominated sport and how the sport has evolved over the years.
