Wrestling Tournament

Adam's first match was won by forfeit (lucky us) but his next match proved to be too much for him, he lost by a few points. His third and final match was unfortunately against a girl in a singlet-not her first wrestling tournament. He was a great sport and learned what this wrestling thing is all about. We had previously practiced once a week at Poudre High for 1 1/2 hours with Bill Greenwood & others who put on these clinics for the kids in honor and memory of his son, Nicholas Greenwood, here the website info: www.gritwrestling.com.

Casey is super strong and can push and pull with the best of them, but unfortunately he lacked technique for wrestling moves. He went to practices too and learned some moves, but using them was a different story. He did a great job and took 2nd for his weight class. In the last match, he lost by a one point for first place, bummer!

2nd place finish for Casey in the Nicholas Greenwood Memorial tournament, Nov. 22, 2008.
