Re: South /PHS predictions
I agree South83. Rod Oldham was a very good man and always cheered me on in the summer tourneys. We even had a heart to heart talk after I won the WV Open States. He did not care that we were once rivalries, just a good man. But Joe, will be like a dad always... but that day ... we lost to South.. w...

Re: Quest School of Wrestling at University HS
Ahhhh .. the kidder.. when I was trying to motivate kids into getting more involved in both Free and Greco.

Re: Quest School of Wrestling at University HS
Jealous much? Something that you kids need to understand. A great wrestler will have many coaches throughout his career. Most high school coaches will “ inherit” a good kid that has been through a great feeder program. A kid with great dedication on the off seasons by joining a club with different c...

Re: Heavyweight Stalling
Hey Stud! I don’t know if CA has any fancy wrestling but we do have clubs that practice ONLY Greco and Free all year round. WV has good coaches there to teach both. In Greco, having the underhooks is an advantage that can produce a lot of throws! I agree with you about entering the free tournament i...

That’s why folk style sucks, i get thrown both salto and suplay, as well as slammed off the mats head first. But I still get up. Guess those are the rules of this American “catch as catch can wrestling.” Instead of disqualifying the “ thrower” just give the other guy a point? Just imagine when we go...
