  1. WCHS has posted to the CMCSS website the opening for a new head coach. West Creek has several talented players on their roster. The teams record over the past years is no indication of the talent level on the team. West Creek has one of the nicest fields in the county and an emerging feeder program starting at 10U.
  2. This was a history first tournament championship for the Coyotes that came at home vs our crosstown rivals Rossview. The finals came down to the last match. Great tournament with a lot of good match ups!
  3. Great read! I can tell you from my own personal experience with my son, that this article is right on point. My youngest started at 4 and found success right away. Out of my own ignorance and zeal for his success, I allowed him begin competing nationally by the age of 7. Soon thereafter he began to compete year round and following the FS/GR state championship he started showing signs of burnout and wanted to quit by the age of 9. He has since taken a full year off. I gave him space and allowed him to choose when to come back.Recently he came back to the mat and will compete at a limited schedule (30 matches max). The moral and lesson learned for me is to start them later 8 or 9, and to allow them to make more choices. Providing him with the space to choose when e came back gave him a greater appreciation for the sport. There was no better feeling than him coming home from practice and telling me that he loves this great sport again!
  4. It was a good day of wrestling for our young guys. Thanks to Coach Kramer and is staff for running a very efficient and competitive event!
  5. Look for Beech to make some noise this year. They looked strong at West Creek this passed weekend the Rippy's and Mike King among others looked strong.
  6. Looked pretty good last Saturday at Northwest to me!
  7. I'm having issues getting the rankings to open up.
  8. Just curious. Will the bestwrestlerlist.com be the only source for rankings this year, or while Hamm, Bray and others still post theirs?

  12. FYI they cancelled on us this morning! I am hoping we can get in the BPA tournament in Franklin! If anyone can help us out please let me know!
  13. My team will be competing in the CSA's Memorial Day Classic in Clarksville, TN. I am not sure how many of you guys are aware of this organization, but they seem to be great so far. I have been in contact with them and they have been very helpful thus far. I will have a full report on how it went the Monday following Memorial day weekend, but I wanted to make everyone aware of another place to find tournaments in the Mid-TN and KY areas. http://www.commonwealthsportsassociation.com/
  14. Good article about the great things going on with the program right now. Coach Suggs has this team headed in the right direction! http://www.theleafchronicle.com/article/20140424/HSSPORTS/304230043/Suggs-builds-West-Creek-wrestling-into-contender
  15. It is hard to beat the body position awareness and mobility improvement you get from FS/GR. I have heard critics of it in the past say that it confuses the wrestler, but I think that is non-sense and offensive to wrestlers. Wrestlers are some of the most intelligent athletes in the world. FS/GR can only benefit you. Take a look at the State Championship podiums at all levels and you will find kids that participate in FS/GR. We have started running an off-season FS/GR club at West Creek this year and all our wrestlers are encouraged to participate because we believe it is crucial to their development. Some of our kids additionally attend the Knuckleheads (who have a great program) across town as well. I am a believer in the advantages and you will find me practicing what I preach tonight, teaching the boys the bow and arrow and side headlock turns.

    After tough losses to White House 11-2 and Richview 12-2 and losing two key starter to injury during last weeks tournament. West Creek finally got back on track last night! West Creek 9 - Hopkinsville (KY) 6 We play Rossview @ home tonight JV 5:30 Varsity 7:30
  17. I really think it is a toss up in the 10 AAA. Clarksville will be much improved and I could see them being a very good ball team and still going 5-5 or possibly 10-0, it really just depends on how the chips fall. Most of the teams in 10 AAA are so close, who knows what the outcome will be in the end. The road to the State Championship will definitely run through HC though. Couple scenarios here for CHS. I think they will beat Goodpasture this year, Lose to Ravenwood, and beat Centennial for two wins and 1 loss to start the season, however Goodpasture or Centennial are fairly equal to CHS and could win. They are good enough to beat Rossview, Kenwood, West Creek, and Northeast, but those teams are also good enough to beat CHS. So you can count those games for 0-4 wins. They will beat Northwest and Springfield for 2 wins, and I think CHS can play with HC, but most likely will fall to them due to their depth, so that's 1 loss. So, with all that being said, here is the best and worst outcome I could see for CHS. IMHO Best Outcome 8-2 Worst Outcome 5-5 I hope they go 9-1 and their only loss is to a 10-0 West Creek though!

    In the interest of making this forum an interesting read again. I thought we could begin posting scores. I know in our neck of the woods (Clarksville) we just had our jamboree. Here are the scores for West Creek Middle School. New Providence 6 West Creek 4 West Creek 14 Hopkinsville 0
  21. Not trying to pull anyone away from Team TN, but not everyone makes the team. Better to get the info out there now, while they have an opening.
  22. If anyone is interested Team Minion has openings in 3 weight classes. Team Minion needs a 40, 135, and 148 no older than 5th grade. Email [email protected]
  23. I agree with Coach Isbell 100% If you are considering younger kids for this camp, I would not hesitate. We took our 9 year old last year. He attended several camps throughout the Southeast and this was by far his favorite. Most importantly, the instruction is phenomenal, and second the activities were great. Oh by the way, Dan Gable will be there this year!
