Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion Kids Folkstyle Bo Pursel - Tonganoxie's first state champ ever!!!!

I want to thank everyone who wished Bo well this weekend and to all those who offered congratulations! It was a wonderful year and Bo was very fortunate to have a great weekend and come out on top of some excellent competition and kids in the 10U/61 division. This bracket had 4 past state champs, 2 runner-ups, and 3 other past placers. Congratulations to all the kids in this bracket.

Bo is Tonganoxie's first ever state champion at any level!

Congratulations again to all the kids. We appreciate everyone's support and the friendships we have made.

Also Congratulations to Dylan Yates of Tonganoxie and his 4th place in 8u/64!!!!! A great finish for a 2nd year kid.

I didn't get a chance to see Dylan wrestle. I did see Bo wrestle 2 matches. Very sharp looking wrestler!! From what I can tell he has a great future in this sport.

Congrats!

Great year Bo. Can't wait to see you next year. It's nice to see the kids with great sportsmanship go far. Bo and his dad have a great attitude on and off the mat. VERY NICE people to hang around. I know my son loves to watch him and learns from watching him. Congrats BO!! From your freinds in Haysville Jr. Wrestling Club

I love to watch this kid wrestle.Keep working hard Bo, great things are in your future. Dan gentzler(WWC)

I remembering watching Bo wreslte for the first time last year and I thought to my self "he is going to be awesome someday"

I guess that day came!

Congratulations Bo!

Wow, what an honor! I don't know this kid but know from my years of living in Hillsboro what kind of an honor this is. There are not many things better in life than celebrations in a small town. Let us all know when the parade is so we can send Bo our best. Congrats to a young man who probably knows the honor of a state championship all too well today.

Congrats from Sunflower Kids wrestlers, parents, and coaches.

Yes, he did do a great job but even a better job at National turny...he took 1st in that to...nothin to say but great job and keep up the good work.

Congrats on your great year Bo and good luck in the future!!! Keep up the hard work and dedication to wrestling!! Great job once again and good luck in the future!!!
