Those are two pretty good links.

 

The caption to the picture is wrong in the second article. It mentions 23 reps with over 200 pounds. What they left out was that it's over 200 pounds on each arm.

FYI: (article from local paper)

 

HBO to spotlight Maynard

 

 

From Staff Reports

 

Collins Hill wrestler Kyle Maynard, who won his matches Saturday at 103 pounds in the Area 8-AAAAA Duals, will be featured on an upcoming episode of the HBO television program, Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.

 

Camera crews taped wrestling footage and conducted interviews for the story on Saturday at the area duals, held at Parkview High School. Crews have followed Maynard the previous few days during his practices and his daily life.

 

Maynard, who wrestles despite being born without fully developed arms and legs, has been an inspiration for the Collins Hill community since he wrestled and played football in youth leagues.

 

The episode of Real Sports featuring Maynard will air Tuesday, January 20 at 10 p.m. For more information on the show, check the Web at www.hbo.com.

RMC,"kdxdude" taped Maynard at the Cleveland duals and showed it to some people we both know and man they were impressed. These guys are not even fans and they are talking about taping the HBO show and showing it to others. What a great ambassador for the sport. I also saw him at the Cleveland duals and wish my son was older so I could use him as an example of what wrestling is all about. When I saw him wrestle I saw no handicap just another wrestler with one great desire to compete. By the way the match I saw he won by pin.

I think they finished third over Franklin. and bradley did win it but it was a good meet. You can go to search and then Cleveland Duals for more info.

Words won't do him justice. You just gotta see it to believe it. There's not one ounce of "quit" in that boy. On top of that he's one heck of a nice, fine young man.

My goodness!! I knew wrestling was good in Georgia for years but Collin Hills? I wonder how they rank? Isn't Bradley taking on the number one team, Parker something?

 

Thanks Ross for this report on Collin Hills you sent me below:

 

 

Hey we wrestled Franklin this year at the Cleveland Duals. We beat them 51 - 18 and wrestled 6 JV kids.

Our 145 pounder won the National Championship and is pretty tough. We lost to Bradley, but again we had 6 JV kids in the lineup. beat Dobbins Bennett (64 – 15) and Christian Brothers (48 – 21). The only Tennessee team we’ve ever lost to is Bradley. We beat McCallie this year too.

 

 

 

JV kids wrestled because we’ve got a ton of injuries right now. 119 – Knee surgery…be back this Friday (2nd in State as a 9th grader last year), 160 – shoulder, 189 – shoulder, and 171 – flu.

 

Our 103 pounder doesn’t have any arms or legs either.

 

Fabulous Story!!

What is Kyle's record this year and is he ranked in the state?

[RMC]

I may be off one or two, but I think as of 1/8/2004 he is 20 and 6 and ranked 8th in the state. Two of his losses were at the Tiger Inv. at Chapel Hill, NC.

Where can you find the GA state rankings?
