Super 32

What are peoples opinions regarding Super 32?

With USA Wrestling Junior/Cadet Nationals being July 13-19 when are kids & coaches expected to take a physical & mental break?  If kids train all Summer then I like to see them stay off the wrestling mat until after Labor Day.  I feel that the kids should still strength train and do some type of cardio but their bodies need some time to recover.  What I have always been told by the most elite athletes is that it takes eight weeks of intense training to get ready for a national tournament like Super 32.  My question is how can kids train hard for USA Wrestling Junior/Cadet Nationals and then turn around and train hard for Super 32 and expect to do well?  Should kids just focus on one tournament and not both tournaments?

Super 32 can put one in the map for sure, but also be demoralizing without sufficient prep & training. Set your expectations.... Maybe low,,, hope for the best without injury, unless you're in the upper weights.

Wait, wait, wait...did you just...did you just tell someone to go to a tournament and expect to do poorly? The heck is wrong with you?

To qualify is an accomplishment. From Tennessee? In HS? Affirmative IMHO, if you are expecting to medal without sufficient prep. To win? Maybe I'm off slightly, but how many have won the Greensboro HS Super 32 in lower to mid weights from Tennessee?

Please help me with that.

Why would you ever tell an athlete to go to a tournament and expect to lose? How is that productive to the athlete? You're smarter than this.

MTSU Wrestling Club is looking into hosting a preseason tournament/Super 32 warm up here in Murfreesboro for all ages. Wrestlers will be divided up by weight classes, age, and experience as much as possible so the more participants the better we can divide everyone up. Not sure the details yet but I am looking at September 28th or October 5th as the date(any thoughts?). When I figure out all the information I will get it uploaded on trackwrestling and then will post the information and link here.

Thank you,

We would definitely have some kids compete if so!

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
