It's True! It's True!
That high school wrestlers do live a hard lifestyle but this film was bad at expressing it. First off, if you are going to meet a state champ it'll be better to have shown that you worked your way up to him by a tournament then some scheduled meet. As alumni of my high school wrestling team my final match was against a defending state champ and my story was twice as better and more fun than Vision Quest except with the trip with the hot girl. The bottom line is that Vision Quest is a horrible film even for 1985 for expressing the life of high school wrestler.
