Central Regionals Recap
Well 1,000 miles and 15 hours of driving, but 11 young men and 4 coaches are back from a productive weekend seeing great competition. First I would like to thank the kids who came on this trip and were the perfect representatives of themselves and the state both on and off the mat. Second I would like to thank the Lutz's, Porter, and Mr. Climmons for covering kids, and making sure that these kids were able to compete.
Now for the recap. It was a great weekend and whenever you see Nationally Ranked kids as well as kids like Tsirtsis, Ness, and Brill (8th grade STUD) you know you are in for a good day of wrestling. Everyone made weight on Friday night and Saturday morning and came ready to wrestle on Saturday. We started with freestyle and here are the final results.
Cadet:
Dallas Brown - 2nd (125)
Jeremiah Lutz - 4th (125)
Brooks Climmons - 1st (160)
Junior:
Eric Sheppard - 4th (112)
Tyler Smith - 4th (285)
Tyler Askey - (145) (Lost out due to criteria in the round robin of the bracket - Should have went to placement)
