Edited by me after I looked at the official schedule. Jake wrestles on the 13th of August...that would be the 13th of August in Beijing so he starts wrestling on what would be the night of the 12th if you live in MN. First round starts at 9:30am over there which I'm pretty sure is 8:30pm the night before here. So the evening of Tuesday, August 12th is when you need to start looking for this on the internet. His first 3 or 4 rounds (actual number depends on his draw) would be from 8:30pm until midnight. His Gold medal match will be at 5:20pm in Beijing which would be 4:20am Wednesday morning here in MN. I'm pretty sure Beijing is 13 hours ahead of us. Being as he will be in the Gold medal match we don't need to worry about the repechage rounds that would take place from 3am-4am our time which means we can all take a short nap from midnight to 4am. |

That is incorrect. I was on the phone with Jason (Jake's dad) prior to seeing this post and he asked me to email him the schedule I found on the official Olympic website so I'm guessing they posted that on the website before they knew what the schedule really was. |

I heard it is also on CNBC, but is this just selected coverage? So bottom line, watch the internet at 4:20am on wed. morning Aug. 13. What about the rest of the wrestlers? Bernard? Anyone have a schedule in general for all of them? |

No, start watching at 8:30 the night before so you can see all his matches. The link WHANmom posted should have Ali's schedule as well...basically the same general schedule but a 4 days later. |

Ali Bernard wrestles on Sunday August 17th. The prelims are from 9:30 a.m.-12:00 noon (Beijing time, so it would be 8:30-11:00 p.m. Saturday Aug. 16th for us). Then, the medal matches are from 5:25 to 6:45 Sunday night Beijing time (4:25 to 5:45 Sunday morning for us). As soon as we know more, it will be posted on her website www.alibernard.com Best of luck to Ali, Jake and all of the U.S. Olympians. Buy their shirts and financially support their families. This trip is incredibly expensive for these families. They need, and appreciate every bit of support they have gotten over the last 6 weeks. |
