gets tech falled to put it out of reach. Tried a lateral drop going out of bounds when down 4-0. Goin for the win, can't blame him. We really needed to keep it less than a tech and score a point. He scored the point,but fell short on the other end. Nathan had a good tourney.
We are down 37-31.

0-0 with Brown on the mat.

:30 to go, brown has to score on offense, but can't. Drops the 1st

Here comes my annual rant about not taking all of our studs. We had some ttough kids that bumped up to fill holes. It would have been nice to be able to let those kids wrestle their weights, and fill the 119 and 130 spots with kids that were true 119 and 130 lb kids. Kudos to Bryce Shoemaker, Dustin Reed, and Calvin Ochs for filling those holes. I believe Quinton Harrison and Connor Neal bumped up to wrestle as well. I'm not making excuses for any of these kids, and they wouldn't want me to, but you know how these big n ational events work. Other states cut, and if you don't, you are giving up big time size and strength.

I believe the Wisconsin dual was within our grasp, but got away.

Michigan was another one that we had a shot at. We took 6th, but I believe we could have done as well as 4th.

You guys that didn't come know who you are. If we want to move up from these 6th and 7th and 8th place finishes, we have to take ALL of our studs.

Tomorrow, other states will be showing up with fresh freestyle teams. We will be battling them with a sore and battered group of warriors, and once again, with little guys wrestling at 2 weights. Rest assured, our Cadets will be nails tough during Freestyle. We can only hope we stay healthy, as we only have backups at a few weights.

As a parent, you ship your kid off to these duals hoping they get a bunch of matches in, then it changes to "I wish we could get a break for some of these kids". 9 matches in greco,and we are only halfway home.

Congrats to the Cadets.

I will try to get another parent with a laptop to keep you posted after tomorrow afternoon's matches. I have to head back home around 3 or 4 pm for my daughters' ball tourney this weekend. Worst case, you'll have the Chief to post the trackwrestling results as they come in.

Kids, this is an experience that is grueling, but you can see it in our kids' eyes, that it is very rewarding to say that you survived it. Make it a goal ofyours to represent Team Kansas at the duals......

I don't think any state is able to get all their studs on the mat. Kids have so much going on in the summer, the cost of some of these teams and tournaments are outrageous, and it is very hard to get full teams half the time. Kansas has traditionally done a very good job and everyone wants the best team on the mat, but every kid that does go, is getting amazing matches and invaluable mat time.

It costs some of these families over a $1,000 to do Cadet/Junior Duals and Fargo. With the big Million dollar payouts college give for scholarships and the lucrative contracts that wrestlers receive, it is a hard thing for some families to do it. I love wrestling and I believe it is worth it, but I understand the situations with some of these kids. I don't think it is the kids that are choosing to not participate most of the time.

Pool D:
New Jersey
Kansas
Texas
Washington
California
South Dakota

First up is Washington, then Texas. GO KANSAS!
