    Hello,

    I'm a wrestling dad from West Knoxville. I am inquiring to see if you have found a coaching position. We're in need of a skills coach. We're a young wresting team with good talent.

    If you are still looking, I will relay your interest to our athletic director. 

     

    You might want to email him. I think you will get better results.

    Not 100% sure but an educated guess would be Aaron Bateman won it 4 times.

     Aaron never won the the Ryan tournament. 
    Phillip Simpson 4 Time champ

    That's right, and with that being said, "Lil" Kramer wrestled 60+ matches every yr for the last 4 yrs, wrestling 69 his freshman yr so 70+ isn't some unreachable number during the mid 90's or even now for that matter.

    Just curious of those 60 and 70 plus wins, how many were forfeits?

    This is another one that’s pretty solid on the finals matchup. Henderson vs Dooley is the likely final bout. And I’m torn. On one hand, Henderson beat Dooley here last year, and has a decision win over Job in the Ryan final this year. On the other hand, if there’s anyone who knows Henderson..it’s Dooley. And we all know how bad Job wants that title to finish his high school career. I think he gets it done. Elsewhere, look for Ely Castillo to give Henderson fits if they meet in the semis. Castillo dropped a 3-0 decision to Dooley, and beat Alan Fort, who gave Henderson all that he could handle. Castillo is good  and could be a dark horse threat to win it  

     

    Final Picks:

    1. Job Dooley (Franklin)

    2. Cameron Henderson (Smyrna)

    3. Dillon Pendley (Tennessee)

    4. Ely Castillo (Clarksville)

    5. Alan Fort (Wilson Central)

    6. Sebastian Hernandez (Bradley)

     

    One match away:

    Donovan Henry (Mt. Juliet), Jake Manuel (Houston)

    When you say Henderson beat Dooley here last year what do you mean ? 

    They were both in different weight classes last year,  both making the finals. Henderson won and Dooley lost in there respected classes.

    This is great for Cody and TN wrestling. I wish he could have wrestled in the Midlands or the Southern Scuffle to see how he matches up against real college wrestlers. Is this open tournament new? I can not seem to find past results on it. 

    What are real college wrestlers ?

    His team has not beat your team in 10 years so why the shot at this accomplishment ? I sure if you took the time to check niether the Midlands or the Scuffle allow any high school students in there tournaments. 

    Maybe just maybe years later we can sit back and brag to everyone that he wrestled in Tennessee.

    Good question.  I feel like if a call is made on the mat then that’s what it should be. But I have also seen them change the call after. If a call was never made and injury time was given, technically a call still needs to be made and would be at the refs discretion. I’d say @reftn would probably know more. 

    Reftn passed away this pass year. Sorry we will not get to see his words of wisdom anymore.

    What do you guys think about trying to bring back hometown Chattanooga native and current assistant at Pittsburgh.....Jordan Leen?

     

     

    Let’s see. They fired his dad who used to coach there so you have that going against you to start. They probably pay him more at Pittsburgh as an assistant than UTC would pay as a head coach.

  8. Christian Brothers High School has hired Mr. Derek Harrison as its head wrestling coach. Coach Harrison comes to CBHS after serving as the head coach at Seymour High School in Seymour, TN since 2015. He has also served as assistant wrestling coach at King University in Bristol, Tennessee, his alma mater. Harrison wrestled at Cleveland High School, as well as at King University.

     

    "With the outstanding tradition of our wrestling program and the opening of the Brothers Development Center, Coach Harrison steps into this role with resources and strategic pieces already in place.," said Mike Kelly, CBHS Athletic Director. "His work ethic, coupled with his history of developing outstanding wrestlers, will lead our program to a new level.â€

     

    “My family and I are extremely excited about this opportunity at CBHS,†said Harrison, who will teach business classes at CBHS. “I would like to thank the CBHS administration and the hiring committee for giving me the opportunity to take over such a prestigious program. I will work diligently to develop well-rounded student-athletes and continue the successful wrestling tradition that has been built at CBHS. I look forward to a new challenge in such a great environment.â€

     

    Coach Harrison received both his Bachelor’s (2009) and Master’s degree (2010) from King University. He has been active in development of youth wrestlers in Freeestyle and Greco-Roman. He and his wife Crista have two daughters, Caelyn, (4), and Cameryn (five months).

     

    “We welcome Derek and his family to Memphis and the CBHS community. Derek is both an accomplished teacher and well-respected wrestling coach,†said Chris Fay, CBHS Principal. “His personal mission as a teacher and coach is a great match for CBHS and he is well-prepared to be our next head wrestling coach.â€

  9. I can't remember his name, but I heard that the guy that retired from Germantown HS a couple of years ago was taking it over for a few years.  They said he was only 60 but could draw a pension and then coach private school.  I think GP West did that too.

    No. The former coach you are talking about is Tony Bradley. He now lives in Arkansas, about 2 hours from Memphis. He is not coming back.
