FORREST ROCKETS 2016

This returning 2016 senior class has several excellent players. We are losing some up front guys but we have good guys moving in. I do not expect a talent drop off.

 

What I do see is that from year to year, if this staff returns, we are finally getting the continuity we need to instill a real program.

 

We should absolutely be favored to win the Region again. Toughest games will be at Eagleville, at Westmoreland, and Watertown at home.

 

I think we play at Page, which will be a 1 score game either way, but doesn't impact region standings.

 

I'd like to see an offseason regimen similar to Marion, who seems to be peaking heading into Cookeville including mental toughness and physical health.

 

How does a team do that?

Starts in January lifting weights. Speed and agility training with resistance. These kids run every day starting at 6 am. One thing they do different from most teams is lift on gameday. How you train in the spring and summer prepares you for fall. The kids are in excellent shape and in close games they just wear teams down.

Lifting on game day is getting more common.  You guys have it going on.

I see the page game being a lot more than 1 score in your favor. They are losing a lot.

    • Shopping? His family is loaded and he's 6'6 I'm pretty sure he could start anywhere in upper East TN,So no need to shop. Word is Witten got caught trying to work him out on campus and some 7 on 7 while playing athletics for Sullivan East. Word got around pretty quick and Someone turned them into TSSAA.
    • Quick update on Jacob -  Jacob celebrated his 16th birthday at Vanderbilt on Tuesday and has been in decent spirits.  His sense of humor has begun to show as he was visited by many friends.  He is swallowing a lot better now and has eaten some of his favorites (Chik-Fil-A and Five Guys).   He is getting prepared to head to Atlanta to the Shepherd Center first thing tomorrow morning.  His family has been waiting on insurance approval. In case you dont know the Shepherd Center it a world class facility and supposedly one of the best in the country for spinal injury rehab.  Praying for perfect results there. Considering the circumstances, Jacob is in decent spirits.  He has some reflexive movement in his legs which I think is probably a very positive sign.  Don't read too much into that just yet as there is no telling what the real prognosis is... just hopeful that is good thing.  I am really just happy that it seems like he has a punchers chance of getting something back.  He is a strong young man and very determined so I think he will fight as hard as he can in physical therapy while down in Atlanta. More than one of you has asked me about an address to send donations.  I know GoFundMe isn't for everyone.  If you want to go that route, you can make a check to "Blackman Wrestling Club" and we will pass anything received directly to the Kinderdines.   Jacob Kinderdine c/o Blackman Wrestling 4836 Trevino Court Murfreesboro, TN  37128 Also, want to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Jacobs dad will take a month off work and stay in Atlanta with him.  They need to learn how to take care of him and do home therapy work..... and surely Jacob will be glad his dad can be there.  All that could not happen without you all.  Depending on what happens, they will probably end up doing some home remodeling in order to accommodate Jacob at their home.  Thanks again. Here's a pic I lifted from Facebook of Jacob on Oxy talking to his Uncle.  LOL
