He was teaching at Rockvale so why didn't he begin the program at Rockvale and not at Riverdale?  Just asking.

They have a program and already had a coach. This definitely wasn’t something I was looking for. It had more to do with timing than anything else. 

If the part about the “plan was” is confusing... that had to do with my teaching position. I was hired to teach Emergency Medical Responder and eventually EMT. I just retired from the fire service in July. There was some initial uncertainty if I would still continue to teach at Rockvale.

My staff and I are very excited for this awesome opportunity. We are looking forward to getting together with our team and laying out plans for the future. 

Until then, I hope everyone stays healthy and safe. 

Wow. Here I thought we did a pretty good job this year.

For those in and around the mid-state, there is  a parent meeting this Wednesday, Blackman high school at 6pm. Come find out what there is to know about the upcoming season... It’s open to everyone. Workouts start March 9th.

Meanwhile on the AAA Individual State Predictions topic....

I'll take Cleveland by at least 30. You wanna take that bet?

I’m your huckleberry!

Great job to these two young ladies. You earned it.

Anyone else find it ironic that someone felt courageous enough to type what they did but not tough enough to leave their name? Mr. Reiniche, on behalf of the wrestling community.. my apologies. Good luck Mason. 

Can we get back to possible weekend ranked match ups? I really don’t want to share what I know on the current topic... 

*Face palm* Aren’t there enough topics that discuss recruiting?

Im calling Skylar Coffey right now. In dominating fashion...

Nice wins by Boyce overtaking a much bigger set of ranked foes this weekend in the then #3 Dawson and newly ranked #6 Worley. Heavyweight still looks like a one man race though.  

How did we segue into private school wrestling on a AAA Rankings are now posted topic? Asking for a friend...

I think we should let you guys wrestle it out. Winner’s rankings stand. Blackman will host and agrees to split the proceeds. Good LORD knows we need our building back.

Early bird is this weekend... Any takers? We can put almost a month of squabbling to rest and increase the size of next year’s tournament by two mats. 

I think we should let you guys wrestle it out. Winner’s rankings stand. Blackman will host and agrees to split the proceeds. Good LORD knows we need our building back.

I’d personally take Coffey over any of them. I think he has the highest ceiling in the state. It’s crazy how athletic he is for a HWT. Whichever college gets him will be really lucky. 

Think if Skylar has half the time wrestling these guys have where he might be talent-wise.  You are correct, his ceiling is high. 

Congratulations to Skylar Coffey on his 4th place finish at Super 32. A tip of the hat to his coach too. Well done guys.

An annual membership meeting with a total  five clubs represented. One coach who attended can’t even cast a vote because his school won’t recognize wrestling outside of the school season. 

It was posted on this message board well in advance announcing the date. Another one followed up with a location and time. Heck an email from the board was sent out with the proposed amended bylaws a week prior for review. They even identified the positions up for re-election. Then, a reminder email about the meeting was sent out; to every coach in the state on Vandergriff’s list. This was a step in the right direction.

The only way our voice can be heard is to stay engaged. Remember this is for the kids...

Let Dan coach!! We don’t want him tied up doing paperwork and going to meetings. Too much experience on the mat to do anything else.

You got any upper weight guys, 182-220, going to be there? 

Hoosierdad, the truth is absolutely important. Again my question, since you choose to be persistent in responding but not answering is, do we want to be right or do we want to get better. 

Its about where people choose to focus their efforts. That was in my post... Don’t put words in my mouth. Let’s get better not bitter.
