Ponca City Oklahoma 
Field House

If you happen to visit Ponca City high school you will also be able to view two life size statues of Doug Blubaugh and Shelby Wilson in the field house. 

Shelby and Doug were teammates in high school and college at Oklahoma State, and finally on the 1960 Olympic Team where they both won Gold.  Ponca City and the wrestling Community is really proud of this  of this rare happening.

These statues are a result of the efforts of a number of people, but the man who had the vision and organized the project, was Jason Levit who was the wrestling coach at the time.  His vision was to honor these two men for their accomplishment on the 50th anniversary of their winning the Olympics.  In 2022, Mr. Levit is the Athletic Director at the high school and welcomes visitors.
