    Amen! This is my son's Sr year- no little brothers! Enjoy it while you can!

    I may get a reprieve though-he's getting interest from D3 schools in both wrestling and football.

    No doubt! I miss it.......you're sure to go through some withdrawal! :( My son had many different opportunities to continue his wrestling career in college. However, he chose to become a full-time student and is doing a wonderful job at that. I know he really misses the competition......but quickly gets over it when he walks in to the dining hall to a full-blown buffet each and every meal!:thumbup:

    Yep. The education is #1 priority. We are just enjoying the visits right now. Plenty of time to decide on a sport and a school.

    Logan Elm CV was youth for White coach lol and Ray and Crum were the only 2-0 wrestlers for HT as they lost big to Amanda then lost on a tiebreaker to Elm
    Crum bumped up to HWT to get a match vs AC and pinned his guy in 1st

  • USMCdevil2005

    Yes......numbers are WAY down....forfeits and 1st year kids throughout the lineup. The hefty pay-to-play fees have really had a negative impact on the program for Canal. It's too bad....Coach Brooks really had something special going in CW.

    Nice win for Clayton, Gratz!

    Back to the Hamilton Dual Tourney tomorrow.

    I'm told Admission is $8 - YIKES! and wrestling starts at 8:30 am - Double YIKES!

    I'm assuming with 10 teams there will be 2 pools of 5 - anyone know if the pools have been determined yet?

    got to pay for that new school some how! lol. Just kidding. Everything is expensive now a days but 8 bucks is a little excessive! They compete with Bingo on Saturday night thought so they have to bring in enough at the door.

    Dad4Sports- I heard it was almost 500 a sport right now! That's nuts!

    Assuming wrestling tournaments aren't bound by OHSAA price regulations like football? $6.00 is a standard price, but I have been to several tourneys that are $8 or my personal favorite. $8 per session x3
  • 1prouddad
    Agreed $8 is pricey - especially if you are bringing a family. Not a big deal to me as I'm usually solo.

    At the Cambridge Tourney, they charged $10! When I gasped, the guy at the table said "Well, that's for all day - we don't clear the gym before the finals". To which I said, "You don't see that in the regular season much unless it's a big name tourney like Ironman, Top Gun, the Cruiser Invitational ...!" he just looked at me funny - LOL!

    Worst part about that tourney was that on top of the $10 admin fee, it was the "no outside food rule" - Can't stand that - you shouldn't force kids to wrestle with nothing but bad pizza, nachos or take down tacos in their guts. But they had a new school to pay for I guess!
  • nykc
    No outside food rule?
    Not even a wrestlers table?

    Those are the kind of tourneys most schools will tend to not come back for.

    Yes I usually don't bring the family because I feel a $40 bill for a day is steep. My opinion is, since OHSAA likes to regulate, then they should regulate the prices for member schools like they do football and enforce a fee structure. $6.00 per person, $4.00 per student, kids 5 & under free.

    That is just my $0.02

    Especially those 8-10 team tourneys - 2 byes and 2 matches for $10 C'MON!
