2010 Kicks off with success

This was a rough week for the Falcons as we had a very busy schedule.  The week started off with a dual against Maize South High School on Tuesday.  Due to our busy schedule this week I mixed the line-up with varsity and junior varsity wrestlers. The young up and coming's stepped up with a dominating win 62-15  over the Mavericks.

On Thursday the Falcons hosted the Wichita East Blue Aces.  While I believe the legs were a little shaky from a rough week of 2-a-day practices and holding their weight down for the following day weigh in, the Falcons again stepped up again and finished off their first home dual of 2010 with a win over East 59-15.

On Friday-Saturday, the Falcons went to the Derby Tournament.  This tournament is highly regarded as one of the tougher tournaments in the state of Kansas.  The  week-end was a roller coaster week-end of success and failures but ended nicely with a 5th place team finish, 7 placers and 3 individual champions.

Derby Medalist Include:
125 lbs  Daniel Deshazer (Champion)
130 lbs  Michael Ashpole  (6th Place)
135 lbs  Uylesses Deshazer (4th Place)
160 lbs  Hunter Jameson (Champion)
171 lbs  Matt Reed (Champion)
189 lbs  Christian Duckens (5th Place)
215 lbs  Justin Reynolds (6th Place)

The team will be in action on Wednsday January 13th, 2010 at Wichita Southeast High School for a league dual.  The dual will begin at 7:00 p.m.  The Varsity will then attend the the 20+ team Newton Invitational on Friday and Saturday with action beginning on Friday at 11:30 a.m.
