Does any members have family wrestling this weekend? I have four cousins going to state so good luck to those.
My son is the class B 285 for Central Cass. Kind of a bummer to be a 4 seed and be in Michael Kelly's bracket, but what can ya do. He's been having a great year and wish him the best of luck. Can't wait for the tournament!
I'll be there, in my stripes, with my whistle.

Just had a kid in who is in the same situation. Told him he has to win anyway so what's the difference between doing it in the semi's or finals.
Overall, should be a great tournament. I always enjoy this weekend considering good wrestlers make for a better match as well as easier to call.
Exactly! If there is one thing I've learned from the sport of wrestling it's that anything can happen.
that, and you will have messed up ears for life.
Not if you wear headgear. Pretty positive my first singlet fit over a diaper and I don't have cauliflower ear. Didn't wear it for ONE freestyle tournament and took an elbow to the ear. The headgear went back on after that.
Pretty sure I'm related to everyone in Napoleon so I'm probably related to all five who are going. :;:rockit
Why won't they let BEK televise it anymore, really used to look forward to it on TV
well, you must be a gross, reis, weigel, or jangula
Do tell I don't know the story about Lehman, are you talking about TravisBack when I reported on such things, I went to three ND State tournaments in a row.
I'll preface this with the fact that I had many preconceived notions prior to actually watching wrestling.
Anyway, each year I thoroughly enjoyed myself. While I officially covered West Fargo (during the whole Lehman transfer controversy), it was impossible not to get sucked into the drama that unfolded from schools and towns I'd never even heard of. Man, you get two or three hot matches going at once, and those sections of screaming fans become unglued. What a riot.
I'd recommend that state tournament to anyone, regardless if you're a wrestling fan or, hell, sports fan period.
