    Tomorrow night is the night... Rain or shine!!!

    Also, look for videos to be up around 9:59pm tonight! I'll have some time to upload the Cruiser Open matches, edit some Tommy Rowlands AND mike Pucillo stuff.

    Here's something I found funny... on the Tommy stuff, he credits Mike P. as one of the most effective front headlock series in college. While I get that that isn't very funny at all, what I did find funny was that Mike then, a few days later, was announced as the clinician for a couple of area clinics, all in order to show... THE FRONT HEADLOCK!!!!! Har, har, har...

    Mike Hall hearts compression shorts.

    Videos are uploading now...

    I have the Murdock/Strope match and the Marsico/Murdock match. Next up will be the Hutchins/Longwell match.

    I am also going to begin work on the Pucillo stuff soon. Be ready!

    Another great night tonight. Had around 30. Saw some new faces which was great as they added even more depth to some groups. However, there were a few regulars out tonight. No biggie though as we'll do it again next week.

    See you then.

    Great to read!

    Oh, the soreness!!! The next day is always the roughest. My arms and forearms twitched all night.
  • cruiser_96
    New Albany Duals are THIS weekend! Get a team down to our open mats and get prepped for the weekend!

    See everybody at 5pm on Tuesday night at Groveport Madison Middle School North!!!

    Two things...

    I should be able to get the last video for our tournament up (Longwell/Hutchins) tonight.

    Also, THIS TUESDAY NIGHT will be the first Tuesday for the Solon trip sign-ups.

    My [email protected] inbox will open at 6:32pm on Tuesday evening. If I receive an email prior to that, it will not count. I want to give those who are at the open mat session first dibs on the trip. When I get home, I'll check my email account... Anything prior to 6:32pm will be deleted. Anything after will be selected (if there is still room) based on a first-come-first-serve basis.

    Should be another great trip!!!

    EXCELLENT room tonight. Still had some regulars out but we also had a couple MORE new faces this week. Still in the upper 20s/lower 30s for numbers; excellent talent throughout though. Did we have a placer - yes, yes we did have a placer there tonight - along with many qualifiers and very good district level guys.

    Come on out next Tuesday!

    Fantasic group tonight! Nice to see some old-timers back for the night, and great to see our regulars, and of course, always nice to see some newbies.

    30+ (mid 30's I do believe) tonight... Junior High, High and post-high schoolers.

    Great stuff... let's do it again next week.

    Don't forget, Solon trip is NEXT week!!!!!!!!! May 19th. I'll have details SOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!
  • Westie101
    Cruiser, i wont be able to make the solon trip, the boss says its a no go. scratch me off :[
  • cruiser_96
    Will do.

    This means we 2 spots free.

    Let me know...

    [email protected]

    I'll compile a list and trry to post it tonight.

    DuckMe: We will most likely be meeting up at the Quaker Steak & Lube around 4pm.

    Two spots open, are you kidding me? Someone should jump on that quick. If there was a way I could fill that spot I would, but I am unavailable that night. I'll be riding shotgun on the next trip, I guarantee it. For anyone that is considering going and isn't sure, GO! I've said it too many times to count on these forums over the years, Solon's open mats are the best in Ohio and probably the best in the country.
  • cruiser_96
    So good, they don't call it an open mat! They call it something like " Solon Summer Wrestling Experience" or something like that. It's sweet, that's for sure.
  • cruiser_96

    I think some people are still holding out for bitter! ;)
