Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Two Wrestlers Side By Side ....

fighting a tough battle. Yesterday, while visiting with Tyler Graebner I also had the honor of meeting a wrestler next door to him named Matthew. I am not sure of Matthews last name but yesterday was his birthday and he wrestles with a state championship team. I think it is Horton but am not sure. It was pretty cool meeting him and his parents, and also seeing that State Championship Trophy in his room.

We have two of our own fighting a tough battle at Children's Mercy in Kansas City. Anyone in the area, stop by and see these young men. It is also kind of cool to get to see a team honor one of their own in the way they have with letting that state championship trophy be in the room of a real champion. Anyone wanting to give further clarification on this please feel free to do so.

Mike how is Tyler doing?

Tyler looked better than I have seen him in sometime. He still has a ways to go to get out of the woods but best as I can describe while there he was busy. I didn't realize they take him from Children's Mercy 5 Days a week to Overland Park via ambulance. He got back, was playing a new PS2 game The Simpson's Hit and Run, then we watched I Robot, he went to school for about 35-40 minutes, then went to group art class and painted a window, ate 1/2 quarter pounder with cheese, fries, and a coke. All of that said, much better than the last time I saw him. He was obviously busy. I plan and hope on going by again on Monday with Aaron Sweazy and Fan for Life from the National Mat Forum who works with Edinboro University. Hope to see a packed house at Buhler and hope that District 3 comes through for one of their own.

I hope District 3 does too, and get this Chapman boys and girls will be playing Buhler's boys and girls in Substate Basketball at Clay Center. So it's the Wrestling with Cancer guys respective teams competing on the hardwood!

Mike Furches- "I think it is Horton but am not sure. It was pretty cool meeting him and his parents, and also seeing that State Championship Trophy in his room."

I'm not for sure but i dont know him and i'm from horton. and unless hes in kids wrestling hes not from horton b/c we had 6 wrestlers this year and hes not one

I'll find out this next Monday for sure what his last name and team is. If anyone knows beforehand please post the information.

Could it be Norton?

I would think Norton would make more sense than Horton when talking championships. Maybe Holton?

Sweazy - Horton does have a descent kids program going on but its not to old i think But it has some really good coaches.
