Central ohio wresting is so unique, where else can you have a coach from one school drive 14 kids from 12 different high schools to a practice 2+ hours away (none of which were on his team) for the third year in a row!!

Other than the early shenanigans, I thought it was awesome! Yet another TREMENDOUS group up in Solon. A great crew in the travel from Columbus.

Great news! It only cost me about $30 this trip!!! That's just shy of half of what it cost me last year. :D

But let's be honest here, though, seeing these kids last night makes it all worth it.

Thanks a million, guys.

And that is why Cruiser is THE MAN! Thanks so much for taking the boys up to Solon again. What a great experience for all of them. Thank you!

Cruiser,

Thanks for taking a couple Darby kids... I talked briefly with Devon "the phone" Booth and he said he loved it. He is looking for a way to go next week too. Maybe I will grab a few kids in the summer and make the trip... I do not have a 15 passenger van though, just a moped with two side carts.

ozzie: did you trade the van for it...straight up. I bet you can get 72 miles to the gallon on that hog.

One last story (maybe)... After the boys had warmed up, they started engaging kids to wrestle. After about 20 minutes a few of them walked over to have a seat where I was sitting. They looked as if they'd ran a marathon! Granted, no one is in any kind of real shape, but I think they wrestle 10 to 20 goes in all of about 20 minutes!!! Looking back, pacing themselves may have been the better option. WE STILL HAD OVER AN HOUR TO GO!!!!!!!!!

We are thinking about doing the same thing in June...making a one or two more trips back up......how long are the mats going for...

Cruiser.....is Groveport on Tuesday running all summer long....we are making changes with our schedule to start making this an every Tuesday thing starting in June....also does anyone know about Ready if their Sunday mat is all summer....

Wildcats, I think Solon runs through June and up until July 20th or something like that. Ready is, in fact, all summer long on Sunday nights and (not to speak for him but....) Groveport runs through the summer as well. Some great open mat opportunities through the summer for those who want to put the work in!
