As those of you who went to the National Prep tournament now know the tournament is a tournement of the best wrestlers from each state. To enter the tournament a wrestler must qualify from their own state, and while the seeds often are accurate more often than not someonie comes out of nowhere to place and knock a hghly regarded wrestler out. That is what happened to some of you.

The kids who beat you in the tournement ended up:

112 Cutler from Northside Christian School finished 7th.

119 Durso, from Malvern Prep finished 8th, and Archiega, of Good Council finished 6th.

125 Pat Prada 2nd seed, finished 2nd, George Weber, John Carroll finished 6th

I hate it. I can't stand it. Losing is for losers. There is no one on the team without a loss. Walk the Talk and do something about it.  Everyone can do better. It's time to start thinking about summer wrestling. We have a club team and there are numerous camps in the area and around the country that can make you a better wrestler and all around athlete. Below is a list of camps that will help you achieve your goals on and off the mat.
