The Redwolves went to the Jim King Tournament last friday and saturday. 10 of our wrestlers went 0-2 and were knocked out of the tournament after the first round. While on the surface it might seem that we have reached rock bottom as a squad, no one quit. We are a very young team and it might take a couple of years of intense, determined, and dedicated work on the mat and in the weight room before we are wrestling at a high level.

Congrats to Joey Berry and Alek Walker for getting a pin.

Today I put in a new sound system for my wrestlers. Although it is pretty extravagant and a little beyond my means but I know that having a sound system that plays good music can really amp up the intensity and excitement of a practice. We have started to see a steady stream of new faces coming into the room and our coaching staff is pleased to see several of the JV football players starting to trickle in. Our practices have been going well and there is a lot of excitement to start off the new season. The first dual… more »
