Thanks the chance to post here----My son Billy Higgins wrestled at Sprawl Nationals & & though small numbers, we got to meet good folks from Kansas, but the way this event was run, the beautiful arena, no coaching/admission fees, plus nice Kansas people==best National of 30-40 attended...I was told of the bigger events (Derby,Salina,Park City, etc.) & marked them down 2)wrestling bag stolen @ Park Hill; of all places, (flip cam, U/A tennies, Iowa stripped Nat. team singlet, Adidas Finalist sing, EE Elite, & a Rome-theme) 3)we have been to Missouri but I have to say our Kansas exposure was great & some Iowa folks don't realize the enthusiasm Kansas holds for youth wrestling----thanks Kansas!!!!!

You might check with Park Hill group. When I helped clean up after the duals last night there were several items left.

Nice post. Good for Sprawl personnel for making a good impact. Wish we could have been there. Dang KSHSAA Gods! As far as the 2nd, don't trust those Missouri ruffians, yeah, they can wrestle, but don't trust em! As far as down the road, I'd say you'd have to wrestle at Salina. It's tough and good competition from the best in KS and the surrounding states.

Again, nice post.

kind of you guys to suggest, but Keck & Co. have my contact info & we cleaned with the janitors Sat & checked back the next day as well....the mistake I hoped for did not occur & it appears it was actually stolen====I was hoping a parent would notice the singlets, as I fear a wrestler may have been tempted over the other bags there, by the unique singlets---but kids that do this seriously are by & large of good repute, so who knows?

Rumble by the River was "postponed" so I'm actually on here looking at the Derby event to take its place===we can get more of this Kansas wresytling hospitality
