    Updates, or should I say results, will be up soon. Gotta give the boy a bath. One moment please...
  • Dad4Sports
    Long bath........

    Just kiddin'. Seriously though, this was a very good event. SP's and SQ's all over the place.....some very good matches. My son got 4 quality matches in under 2 hours and then we were out of there. Our dinner that was left on the stove for us was still warm. Not too shabby!
  • cruiser_96
    Glad to read, dad4sports. After the bath, the Mrs. (and rightlyfully so here) put the nix on anything wrestling related. Sunday night at Ready, Tuesday night at our place, Thursday at Darby, then last night... She wins.

    My boy had a doctor's appt. earlier today, and I'm now at Staples, so I'll get home and post the goods. I'll also have two or three maches to upload. Great stuff!

    Thanks again to all those who participated and attended. I enjoyed the atmosphere, hope everyone did the same.

  • Ozzie8383
    One small detail that is incorrect... Sufyan El-Geroushi from Hilliard Darby was the Champ at HVY. He was up by a significant margin when he pinned Mcnabb.

    Thanks for the fun tourney.
  • cruiser_96
    No disrespect intended on that Ozzie. Had I been born a chicken iwould have fulfilled the oft referred to metaphor.
  • Cthelites
    Great job running a fun tourney Cruiser!
    We got 4 tough quality matches in 3 hrs! Lot's of studs.
    This was our first ever off season tourney and what a difference in the atmosphere. Much more relaxed and laid back. Great for off season work.
    We will do this next yr if you still have it.

    Where do you upload all your matches?
  • cruiser_96
    youtube... it'll be a couple days though. I'm working on the standing front headlock series from Tommy Rowlands right now. I want to show two techniques from that position and then I'll upload the matches.

    Consider it posted, "after I give the boy a bath". ;)

    dad4sports: check under TheMightyCruiser... I have a good number of videos on there. I'll let you know when it's up.

    Cool.....you've got some pretty good stuff on there!!
  • Westie101
    hey cruiser do you still have the 2008 central district finals matches on tape? ever think of youtubing those individually?
  • cruiser_96
    I didn't actually tape the entire match... Mainly in the neutral position or if I felt something was about to happen. Not one match that whole weekend was taped fro
    start to finish. Come to think of it I dont think any match got more. Than a thirty second block.
  • cruiser_96

    Marsico vs. Murdock...
