For those of you who have not heard, I have recently joined my schools wrestling team. I wrestle at Junior Varsity, so I can gain experience and learn the techniques.
I have had 2 scrimmages and 1 tournament. my coaches said I did alright for a first real match. Even so, I still have a lot to learn.
I had 3 matches at the tournament.
1st match: I lasted 3 rounds and had 1 point
2nd match: I lasted 1 round and had 0 points
3rd match: I lasted 3 rounds and forgot to check the score board (I would have thought that I would have at least 1 point, maybe)
This is a great start, but Joe and I need to give you some "extra work" so you will be ready for varsity next year and are more competitive in the rest of your tournaments this year. I would like to have a Saturday combined kids and adult class from 12:30 to 3:30 where I go over some shortcuts that may help both you and Tyler out in your collegial wrestling, but that might also help Dave and Joe or even Wic's fighters in learning some slightly advanced techniques in takedowns and turnovers for submission bouts. I'm free in January on about every weekend, so we'll see who is interested and Joe can put it together. Ken
On last Saturday, I was at the Dallastown tournament, and I had 2 matches. I did not win the first match. The second match was my very first win. I basically had this one guy in a kind of cross face move. I ALMOST went for the pin. I almost had it. The score was 13 to 2. It felt great to win.
I am interested in having some "extra work". I am sure there is a weekend where I could do that.
we're looking at the 24 to do the wrestling clinic. 12:30-3:30, possibly later
cheers
Joe
