Back to the Mat







Saturday we headed to Norwood Young America for a wrestling tournament. The boyz did a great job and show big improvement every time they head to the mat.



Tanner was wrestling with an injury. We have made two trips to Urgent Care and saw and ear specialist on Thursday. He damaged the cartilage in his ear and we have a few stitches & some packing. Still smarts a little bit but the packing will be taken off on Monday when we go back to the specialist. Dr. Luo is used to working on wrestlers he trained with Iowa State wrestlers for 2 years.






Dalton continues to get tossed in with the older group and lost to a 10Th grader by one point. But he battled back each time. He is so committed to his sport and his teammates the coaches are so amazed how much he has matured. (thank you football)






Tabor finally admitted it!! He's having fun wrestling. He is so under weight to wrestle at heavy weight. He weighs in right at 200lbs and most guys he wrestles weigh over 275lbs. He was the only Raider wrestler who would "shoot" during the 1st period and got some take down points. But when you roll a big boy around they tend to keep rolling so he's learning to stop his motion to keep them in a head lock.






A busy week of sports is headed our way along with the warm up! ALL RIGHT we will be all running around with sweatshirts instead of many layers.
