Israel “Izzy” Martinez was one of the top high school wrestlers coming out of Illinois in the early part of the 2000s. Martinez won an NJCAA championship as a freshman at North Idaho College and then enrolled at Iowa, but his Division I career didn’t develop like the expectations that followed his stellar high school career. Martinez re-created a name for himself as a high school coach and a high-level  club coach with Izzy Style Wrestling in the Chicago suburbs.  Join Kyle Klingman and Andy Hamilton as they talk about the world of wrestling on the flagship podcast of Trackwrestling.com from FloSports.
