Well I some good news this past weekend, and it help cheer me up, I had been sick all weekend. I was chatting with a friend who's son I trained for about a year and a half, when he told me that the state tournament for wrestling had been this last weekend. I have been so busy around here lately I had not checked up on it in quite some time. So I did some digging and got the results that I needed. There were 3 wrestlers that I trained for this upcoming season, and they all did well this year.
Ky Corley- you could not pack any more tenacity into a small package. He is a true fighter, and does not know the meaning of the word quit. Ky wrestled 125 and finish with second place. Awesome job, I know you were looking for 1st, but you got 1 more year to get it done, good job.
Walker Clarke- I like the big guys, and Walker is an animal, wrestling at 189. I did not have the pleasure of working as long with Walker as I did with Ky but from the moment he walked in the door it was all busyness. I think the best way to describe Walker is a man on a mission for his senior year. Congrats on the State Title.
Troy Williams- probably the most coachable athlete that I have ever worked with, I usually had to kick him out of the weight room to get him to leave. I think that if I told troy to run through a brick wall he would have done it. He knew how to use the tools he has to get the job done. Awesome job, wrestling at 145 ending the senior season on a win and 3rd place at States.
I am proud to have worked with all you guys, you have done well and all the hard work you have put in has paid off.
On a side note, my little brother has made it through the second to last qualifying tournament on his way to states. So with a 3rd or better place this weekend he will be off to the state tournament in the toughest wrestling state in the country. Good job Caleb.
