will there be a middle school team this year? if so who is the coach, or will it be some daddy again like last years iowa team.

 

 

Any middle school team coached by "some daddy" was not a TWF / USAW sponsored team last year. That would have been the AAU team that went to Iowa but you were typically getting better coaching than "some daddy".

 

TWF is not sponsoring a Schoolboy Duals team this year as the early signs showed there wasn't enough interest to form a team, a significant disappointment from many views.

Mandingo, I don't think that team needed a COACH. I may have missed someone but on my count, that Team produced 10 STATE PLACERS, 1 of which was a state champ, 2 other finalists and our COACHES son who most agree would have placed if not for being injured early in the year, and was unable to compete the rest of the season. I'll go out on a limb and will say the state of TENNESSEE has never put this much wrestling talent for a schoolboy TEAM on the mat for an out of state tournament and i highly doubt they will again. I get what your saying about the daddy thing but that was not the TEAM to apply those standards too.

Its okay my man, I did miss one other state champ, Zach Watson with Campbell Lewis being the other champion. I understand the point you were getting at because I've had problems in the past with some of our Teams that are put together. I think my oldest son "Jonathan Taylor" has been on one Team Tennessee, won the spot on another through tournament Qualifier and was told he wasn't needed, I don't think its hurt his wrestling one bit, just his dancing maybe?

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
