Last I heard, Lincoln live in the Iowa City/Coralville area. He has his own business, one I thought was a hotel. His son is a stud gymnast.

For this dual, those under the age of 5 will need to purchase a ticket.

I am sure that there are others on here that have more knowledge of this, but after checking with my "better half", she confirmed that last she knew that Lincoln's son was training with a gymnastic group in Iowa City/Coralville.

It is true that Lincoln's son is doing gymnastics and not wrestling at this time. I am guessing that maybe he'll pick up wrestling sometime down the road.

He owns the hotel next to the IHOP in between the mall and the train tracks in Corallville.

actually being in gymnastics would have its advantages for flexibility and usually requires a lot of training at an early age so its a smart move i think

Glad to hear that Steve Mocco will also be wrestling an exhibition match this evening during the intermission break. Look forward to seeing both Brent and Steve in action.
Go HAWKS!

My wife and I stayed in his hotel when our baby was born very premature and it was a very nice, and clean place. The staff was over the top awesome. Please patronize his place!
