Good luck to your boys this year! tell them boys that Central michigan university is only ten mile from our farm, they come wrestle here they will have a place to hunt! lol We have a really good team, coach borelli does an awesome job! they pulled in i think it was the number two class in the country this year!
Good luck too your boys again this year. Looking forward to seeing how they do !!! Tim Oh and kill something dammit !!!!
Thanks guys. Jake just doesn't have the spark anymore. Sam on the other hand. I have him at top 5 come tourney time.
Sweet! Best of luck to him TeeJay... Matthew'll be wrestling in the Optimist league again this year; maybe they'll get him right this time and not have him wrestling kids that are 10 lbs. heavier than him... which was a lot when he was only 58 lbs. to begin with
Greg, dam has wrestled up in weight since kindegarden. 7th grade he weighed in at 63# he is a junior this year wrestling 106-113. Wrestling him up a little in age and weight will pay dividends in the future.
That is cool to hear. Wrestling is a great sport. I wrestled throughout junior high and high school and for 2 years at Purdue University. I currently coach at my old high school. The season is hitting full steam so it is good that I got my buck down, now I can focus on coaching. Good luck to your boys this year and keep us updated on how they are doing. My little brother currently wrestles for the Universtiy of Wisconsin in Madison.
Thanks guys. I'll keep you all informed. The first tourney is sat after turkey day. It's our hometown tourney. Usually a pile of tough kids. I'll keep ya posted.
LOL... the wife says the same thing about me when I get real hard-core during a P90X round and start cutting carbs big-time...
He needs to be down to 112 by Tue. To certify for 106 for the end of the season. He is at 116 I don't know if he can make it. I know he can make a run at the state championship at 106. He lost to the state champ last year 4-1 and 9-7. Don't know about 113. Good luck Sam.
my little brother wrestles took second in new york last year at 112. i lost my career after multiple shoulder dislocations and a few surgeries with a bone graph.. but yea seasons starting and i cant wait to see some wrestling! good luck to your boys!
Well the first tourney was Sat Sam took 2nd. First match :40 sec pin. Second match 15-0 tech fall. 3rd match 12-0 win. In the finals he was up 2-1 on the #7 ranked kid in mn. The tried a throw late in second period. A very sloppy attempt ended up getting himself stuck. The tournament was his to win or loose. One error ended up in a lloss. A bunch of team duels in next two weeks. The a 32-40 team tourney in 2 weeks. He placed 5th in the "big bear" last year.
Thats good to hear. I'm not a fan of weight cutting at the high school level. I say eat your wheaties and get bigger!!! Hope he continues to have a good season!
