Beat the Streets Press Release
No academic institution, be it collegiate or scholastic, in any sport, has enjoyed a longer undefeated streak than the high school wrestling program in Brandon, Florida. Every year for the last 34 seasons they have walked off the wrestling mats victorious and ESPN has taken notice. Now less than a week away, America will have an opportunity to see how this amazing program was organized, administered and learn from its leadership what it took to keep the success train on the tracks. April 29th at 9PM on ESPN2 the network will air a two-hour sports documentary that is produced by Kelly Ripa (Live with Regis and Kelly) and Mark Consuelos (All My Children).
Al Bevilacqua, President of the Beat the Streets Wrestling Inc. was invited to a private screening on April 24. "It was an amazing evening....obviously seeing Russ Cozart again after so many years was good. Russ did the wrestling community a good service and not only is he an outstanding coach and wrestler, he can now add acting to his resume.
The film is a testament to our sport that Chairman Michael Novogratz is constantly reminding our entire organization that wrestling builds toughness, toughness build leaders. It is a must see for the general public and not just wrestling people. The message is good for everyone."
411 Champions are thrilled as wrestling is making its way onto the television schedule as television validates everything. Please watch as this wets one’s appetite for what is ahead for wrestling shows.
“The telling of this story is story is about 15 years past due,” explained Wade Schalles, Distinguished Member of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame and Executive Producer of Wrestling 411. “What Russ Cozart has accomplished as a coach and the amazing team of professionals he has put together is unparalleled in sports. This program is for real and “the streak” is the sort of thing that spawns folklore.”
J. Robinson, the Head Wrestling Coach at the University of Minnesota feels this way. “Television validates the sport. Having ESPN focus on the amazing accomplishments of the Brandon High School program is very powerful for amateur wrestling. Everyone needs to tune-in on Tuesday and for those who can’t do that, they need to tape the show. The bottom line is the more eyeballs we have watching an incredible show; the greater the benefits will be for wrestling.”

It's every bit as improbable as the Miracle on Ice, without the dramatic play-by-play call. It exudes greatness along the lines of Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods, but there's no oversized commemorative coffee table book. It's numbers-driven like Joe DiMaggio's 56 straight games with a hit, but this streak always has been about the process, not the result.
"It is an achievement as extraordinary as anything ever seen in American sports," filmmaker Jon Hock says.
Hyperbole, you say? As extraordinary as anything ever seen in American sports?
Well, you can dismiss this as just another sports story drowning in predictable exaggeration. I almost did. But then you open your eyes, look past the tall talk, and find what first connected you to sports long ago.
Kevin Timothy and the Brandon High School wrestling team are featured in "The Streak."
Hock opened his eyes, and his cameras, on Brandon High School's wrestling team and The Streak -- a national-record 459 consecutive victories, the most ever by any high school sports team in the country.
Long before Hock spent half a year with sweaty teenagers in singlets, he spent a decade at NFL Films. He wrote and edited the "Michael Jordan to the Max" IMAX movie, and both produced and directed "Through the Fire," detailing Sebastian Telfair's hoop dreams. His latest effort, focusing on Brandon's wrestlers, is "The Streak" (ESPN2, Tuesday 9 p.m. ET).
Brandon High is in the suburbs of Tampa, Fla. These are normal kids from normal families. The picture painted isn't sugar-coated. The group is flawed, and that's what helps make them perfect -- perfect enough to go unbeaten for 34 years.
In the film, we meet the typical coach's son who was born to be a star. We laugh at the vocal leader drenched in hubris. We relate to the silent hero who feels the pressure, the late bloomer who finds himself, and the gentle giant who learns to roar. Yet none of them would mean anything to us without the streak itself.
And the streak wouldn't exist without one man who is far from the norm.
"He is John Wooden in the body of a high school wrestling coach," Hock says of Brandon wrestling coach Russ Cozart. "We discovered an extraordinary man who lives and teaches and experiences a depth of strength and power in such a nondescript context."
Since 1980, Cozart has been the caretaker of a program that entered the season having won 451 straight matches dating to 1974. You give him your boy and he'll give you back a man. He isn't a drill sergeant or tyrant. He doesn't sit on those false thrones high school dynasties can build.
'The Streak'
The longest winning streak in the history of American high school sports is the focus of the new ESPN Films documentary "The Streak" (Tuesday, 9
p.m., ESPN2). Produced by Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos in association with Jon Hock and Hock Films, the two-hour film chronicles the 2007-08 season of the Brandon High School (just outside Tampa, Fla.) wrestling program.
The production company that backed "The Streak" is owned by Mark Consuelos and his wife Kelly Ripa. They pushed hard to tell this story with a vision fueled by Consuelos' own high school memories of Cozart's ways.
"I was on the soccer team at Brandon," Consuelos said. "One day, I saw from afar these giant guys doing road work. As they got closer I realized they looked so huge because they were each carrying a teammate -- that's insane."
In fact, the film shows this modest local legend collecting the dirty towels and doing the team laundry. Cozart chips in on the daily chores, included among them touching the spirit of his athletes. His job description apparently includes washing away young men's inner fears and their athletic gear.
The pressure of keeping the streak alive is the center story line -- "I would dig a hole and jump in," says one athlete of the possibility of losing, a prospect that becomes more real, when, after 459 dual-match victories, that hole becomes real. For the wrestlers, the thought of being on the team that ends 34 years of perfection is unimaginable.
And while that tension is at the center of the film, it's also a human story that chronicles three decades of ordinary high school athletes pursuing extraordinary accomplishments.Goodfootin

an amazing streak, no disrespect, but their team really wasnt very good. at least this year. im sure theyve had crazy good teams in the past, but the team this year was not that impressive. they would have gotten wrecked by danbury, went close and probably lost to ledyard, and went close with a few other teams in CT

i saw them wrestle, ive seen danbury wrestle. danbury is far better, as is ledyard. Brandon did not have a very impressive team this year, they excelled in a weak state

Brandon has produced numerous D-1 prospects. Ceasar Garjales, Franklin Gomez, and Rocky Cozart are just a few names to come out of Brandon in the last few years. I can't comment on the make up of their entire team this year, but I know they are a considered in the top 25 annually and they have Eric Garjales, one the top 119s in the country. I would suggest that your assumption Danbury would roll over them is quite foolish. If they had wrestled each other of the last 10 years, Brandon would have taken more than a majority of the duals.

Coach Mills,
Florida is not known as a great wrestling state. However, the talent level is better than the New England states. It is not anywhere near the top level states like OH, PA, NJ, CA, IL, NY, or even MI. After the top ten or so it is tough to differentiate between the next 20 or so. As for the comment on Danbury beating them or Ledyard beating them, that would be quite a stretch. The participation numbers alone would indicate otherwise. CT has 2902 participants while FL has 8269 participants according to NFHS. FL has the ninth highest participation numbers. While participation alone does not make FL wrestling better, they tend to produce a fair amout of wrestlers that go on to be good college wrestlers. Plus Eric Grajales is much better than anyone in CT right now and should be a great college wrestler. As for the headlocks and spladles, every region tends to have their big junk moves. Brandon is excellent at headlocks because Cozart has a good background in Greco and the Brandon kids set them up great.

The only thing i didn't like about the streak was how they made Brandon's 119 pounder look horrible.....hes actully pretty good.
Ty Jones had a record of 41-11 which is pretty good if you ask me.

What is really crazy is that not 1 division 1 or 2 college down in florida has wrestling. Those kids have to go to another state if they want to wrestle in college..I have talked to alot of those guys you saw on TV.....

I'm not sure about the level of wrestling but during the Championship Finals Scene of "The Streak", they said that there were 348 Wrestling Programs in the state of Florida. How many does CT have in comparison?
