This is my first ever blog.A As the season progresses, I will try to get various kids to post their thoughts.A I'm sure David Dubiel will not be too hard to convince.A Or Albert Rozman.A Or especially Troy Gundelfinger.A We have no shortage of wise-guys around here.A One guy to avoid is Ron Townsend...he has had a great off-season and dropped a ton of weight.A He is on his way to 171 (he weighed 280 eighteen months ago!) and is quite a grouch.A MS coach Josh Saha has stated more than once, "I liked fat, happy Ron a lot more...but skinny mean Ron can wrestle!" I know we are excited and anxious to see Ron's work on the mat pay off.
Well, we are a month away from official practice on November 9th, and as a wrestler, coach or fan, we have a lot to get excited about.A The team had a great summer with a very solid showing at camp.A In addition, many kids attended several camps (OSU, DiSabato, Martins, etc).A
It is a newer experience for me being at a DIII school in the off-season.A I am used to most kids doing one sport...at Ready, that isn't really possible!A We are such a small environment that the coaches really work together to schedule camps and coordinate events.A It has worked out well and everyone wins.A When I was in HS, everyone did 2 or 3 sports and I think it helps the student-athlete in their development.
Preseason meeting Thursday the 18th at 3:00.A Be there!A
