Robin Reed
}}
Robin Reed (October 20, 1899 – December 20, 1978) is considered among the greatest amateur wrestlers in the history of the sport. Throughout his career he never lost a wrestling match, official or unofficial, to anyone at any weight class. He was known for winning a gold medal at the 1924 Summer Olympics,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Robin Reed Olympic Results )〕 leading Oregon State to its first team national championship, and for consistently wrestling in the 170 pound weight division despite his actual weight being close to 140.
==Early years==
Reed was born in Pettigrew, Arkansas, but first took up wrestling at Portland's Franklin High School, where he took the class in order to get out of having to take gym. He is quoted as saying: "I needed gymnasium credits to graduate from high school, but I didn't want any gym because I was already getting all the exercise I needed operating an air hammer at the shipyards. I was only 125 pounds and could barely hold onto that air hammer, so I was getting all the gym I needed." He learned quickly and dominated the competition, going undefeated throughout his time there.
After high school he attended Oregon State University (then known as Oregon Agricultural College), and won every match he was in, winning the 125-pound National AAU championship in 1921 and the 135-pound championship in 1922 and 1924 (He failed to win a title in 1923, despite winning every match he was in). While still a student at Oregon State, he coached the local Corvallis High School wrestling team to win the state championship.
