Eric Count Nate in. Nathan has been working harder than ever and has a few things to prove this year. Can go 112 or 119, but prefer 119 for the moment, He said he is glad to wrestle for it if need to.
Sounds great Mike. He is in at 112 which gives him 115 with the 3 pounds. Details will follow.
hopefully haven't spoken too soon, will know more friday but hard practice sometimes results in potential injury. Will say a few folk can say a few prayers now if you want for Nate, sometimes life sucks, just waiting to hear back from Doc Specialist at the moment, met with the general doc today, specialist on Friday morning.
Wow. I hope it's nothing major. Let me know Mike.
So far I have confirmed these wrestlers: 3 pound allowance on these weights.

I guess, if you need a 98, i could get down... haha
You get 3 whole pounds allowance! You remember those 101 days, right Brandon?
I wish, haha, more like 121... its kind of bs, they dont have the 5 for 5.95 @ arbys here, so that kind of hindered my weight gaining
I vote for Brandon at 98, (101) One more time to represent Team Kansas. Come on Scarecrow, I know you can do it.
I agree. One more pull for Ol Blue!
There are many schools that have graduation that day. Some Juniors are involved in family celebrations that weekend.
I'm just hoping the prom isn't the issue. Lord knows, you can talk a kid out of the graduation ceremony, but the prom? That is a whole other issue.
Prom, that could be important. When are these duals? I kind of want to make one tournament just to see some of the kansas wrestling one more time
as for making 98, ummm, throw in a large pizza, and some arbys sandwhich's after weigh ins and we got a deal

Thank you Isaac Ruiz, did NOT want to live another one of those "watching weight" days.
Jeanene Goodwin
I'm looking forward to watching these duels. With this solid of a roster, I cant see anything getting in the way. No doubt I will be there to witness this.
This team does have a chance to win the thing. You can expect Missouri will have their best there. Alan Waters, Mac Bailey and Greg Amos will be on different teams but the Oak Park guys will be ready to defend last year's title. Should be some fantastic match-ups if everybody participates. Cotton/Haynes, Furches/Waters, Slyter/Tyler, Napier/Bailey, Maple/Amos, Watson/Joiner and Elliott/Armato are some that come to mind. We might even see a Detmer/Koehn match!
May 17th at Park Hill High School. Be there!
whos koehn wrestling for?
It's not confirmed but I think he'll be on a team of combined Kansas and SW Missouri wrestlers. I think the Pitt guys are bringing a team up from that area along with some KCWC guys.
UPDATE! We have a new HWT! 10 days till the Park Hill Duals!

I am not a big Pro Wrestling fan, but right now I can't help but think, "Can you smell what the Rock is cooking?" This is going to be a really fun team that I think will do Kansas proud in this building and budding summer classic. I have spoken to the Oklahoma coaches in the past, and they would love to get something like this going with Kansas in the Wichita area with it rotating between here and Oklahoma each year.
BTW, are any of the other team rosters up anyplace?
I have been asking that on the MO forum but no disclosures yet. I talked with Alan Waters in Blue Springs and he plans on wrestling Nathan at 115. As soon as I see any rosters, I will post them.
I have confirmed that there will be at least 7 teams entered.
Team Kansas
Victory - Oak Park
Tiger Pit
Team Central - Park Hill
Sun Tzu - MO
2 St. Louis Teams
It's late, but it would be nice to get another Kansas team in this Dual event!

Where is Coty Reinhart at? He should be somewhere around this weight and is a pretty good freestyler. Blake Long should be able to reach him.
I've been trying to reach him. If anybody can get in touch with these two wrestlers, have them call me asap at 913-484-3624.
Coty Reinhart
Grant Hinckley
Thanks!
I did reach Grant Hinckley. Thanks for the help.
