All former All-Stars and the public are invited to a pre-match social and reunion from 5:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Wrestling Hall of Fame &#038; Museum. The cost for the Reunion Social is $10 per person and tickets can be purchased at the door. Following the reception, the NWCA Marines All-Star Classic begins at 7:00 p.m. in Gallagher-Iba Arena.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have mailed invitations to those former All-Star participants for whom we could find an address,&#8221;\u009d said Lee Roy Smith, Executive Director of the NWHOF. &#8220;Hopefully we will get a good response and they will be able to join us for the reunion. We are grateful to have two former all-star participants sponsoring this year&#8217;s reunion social. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Both Paul Martin (Boettcher, Martin, Jean, &#038; Jackson Law Firm) from Ponca City, Okla. and Billy Martin (Martin Screen Prints &#038; Embroidery) from Virginia Beach, Va. competed in the All-Star Classic in the 1970&#8217;s. It&#8217;s great to have both of these former Cowboy All-Americans contribute to one of the more memorable experiences a student-wrestler can have while competing in college.&#8221;\u009d <\/p>\n<p>Smith said the Hall of Fame&#8217;s Board of Governors would like to make the Reunion Social and All-Star Trivia Challenge an annual event. The Trivia Challenge is a questionnaire to &#8220;test your knowledge&#8221;\u009d of NWCA All-Star Wrestling Classic history.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Many of these participants are the future Legends of the sport,&#8221;\u009d said Jim Keen Sr. Chairman of the Board of Governors. &#8220;It&#8217;s a natural for the Hall of Fame to join the NWCA in making this a memorable event for the fans and participants.&#8221;\u009d<\/p>\n<p>Information on the Reunion\/Social and the Trivia Challenge can be found on the NWHOF website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wrestlinghalloffame.org \"target=\"blank\">www.wrestlinghalloffame.org<\/a>, the NWCA website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intermatwrestle.com \"target=\"blank\">www.intermatwrestle.com<\/a>, the USAW website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.themat.com \"target=\"blank\">www.themat.com<\/a> or by phone at 405-377-5243.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Wrestling Hall of Fame\/ STILLWATER, Okla. &#8212; The National Wrestling Hall of Fame &#038; Museum will host an All-Star Reunion in conjunction with the 30th NWCA Marines All-Star Classic at Oklahoma State University on Nov. 21.
