Odds and Ends
Posted in: GM Wrestling General
It has been a while so I have a few season happenings to catch up on. Sorry to those who check the blog often.
Prior to the Clearfield duals Dalton Lester was named as our Third Team captain. Congratulation on a well deserved honor. Some things are worth the work and Dalton has worked for this.
The team finished the Clearfield Duals in 4th place and saw many outstanding efforts. Tim Wheeling and Dalton Lester went undefeated on the weekend at 5-0. Matt Campbell once again wrestled great in a backup role and earned a 4-1 record. Dalton, Tim and Travis Bryant all avenged previous losses, Travis’ win over Clearfield’s Andre Buck was a rematch of a loss Travis suffered at last year’s regional tournament. First year starters Parker McDermott and Kyle Kuntz both showed that they are ready to compete at the varsity level posting 2 solid wins each. Zac Baumgartner, who was nursing a severely sore shoulder, chipped in with a win and solid leadership in the two matches that he wrestled to fill in one of the three forfeits that we were suffering do to various injuries. Caleb Baker was impressive on the weekend, even in his loss to his state ranked opponent from Greenville, opening up on offense and pushing an aggressive pace on his opponents. This style will translate into many postseason wins.
A very solid and inspiring 36-26 team victory was earned against McDowell on Wednesday (1/27/10). It may have been the first time that our lineup has wrestled that well from top to bottom. The team Expected More for themselves and the received it. Congratulations.
