STANFORD, Calif.- The Stanford wrestling program was recently featured in the third edition of "19 Hours", the latest in a long line of newly-formed creative video initiatives designed to showcase each of the department's 35 varsity sports.

Developed by "The Cardinal Channel", the exclusive video network of Stanford Athletics, the "19 Hours" project provides every team 19 hours of total production time to create one video to publicize their program. Student-athletes from each sport are charged with establishing a unique theme or concept for a video.

The wrestling program is the third team to complete its "19 Hours" video, producing a creative short film. The team talks about its All Americans, including a new addition to the team, Bill... Former Stanford football/baseball star Toby Gerhart is one of a few Stanford athletes to have a cameo in the film.

The Stanford field hockey and women's volleyball teams were the first two programs to complete its "19 Hours" videos. Fans can view the field hockey video here and the women's volleyball video here.
