Update on what I have been up to

For those who don't already know, for the past few months I have been coaching wrestling at the Junior High that I attended. Well last night was the culmination of our season with the city championships. I put 5 kids in the finals, and three in the 4 in the 3rd place finals. We ended the night with a 3rd place trophy as a team, 2 first place finishes, 3 second place finishes, and 3 third place finishes. Not to bad for a team that has only three returning starters from the last year. Both the kids that won first place, this was their first year wrestling. I must say that I am extremely proud of the way the kids performed and am really looking forward to next years season.

75lb champion

114lb 2nd place and the captain of the team. Probably the best single match of the night.

All the participants and coaches from the tournament except for my 147 who was injured in his championship match. He is going to be ok, just a little sore.

Way to go Jeb, those are some fine young men right there!

Congratulations to them all!

Good job bud! I always wanted to wrestle but my highschool never would make it a sports program.
