She was really excited! It may have spoiled her.

Red blades, Last week my 9 year old daughter caught a 2lb large mouth bass, while fishing for crappie.

That is a great line! That should be in a movie. Maybe someday

We can't do that because too many snowflakes will have their feelings hurt. Plus it may be the first time that they have heard the word no, did not make the team, and did not get a trophy.

Idaho, Remember it wasn't that long ago that I mentioned Chlebove might transfer out of ASU? I would love to take credit for some kind of Martha Stewart type info, but it was just a hunch of young adults and being so far away from these days.

Do we know how Baseball is doing in Eugene, Oregon?

Ok Pinnum, it is time for you to post yet another one of your fine maps with all of the wrestling programs. There are some green horns that would be delighted to have such a great reference at their fingertips.

Uncle bernard, You are absolutely correct. The amenities that these institutions have to offer now to get kids is insane. It truly has become an arms race. The days of going to college and living in a dorm room that is not very comfortable are long gone. I will say that a not so up to date and comfy dorm room did motivate a lot of people to hurry and finish school and get the hell out!

I think there will be a lot of less fortunate colleges/universities that will make a lot of cuts across all divisions. Unfortunately, I don't think we have even seen the tip of the iceberg yet. I hope I am wrong.

Katie, You bring up a great topic. It was just a few years ago that the Texas HS State Wrestling Tournament was turned into a circus with Mack Beggs winning a 2nd State title. Beggs a girl transitioning from female to male and taking a low dose of testosterone. Beggs had asked to compete in the boys division during the regular HS season but was denied. The University Interscholastic League (UIL) which is our governing body for public HS sports in Texas ruled that athletes are to compete under the gender on their birth certificate.

Not eligible?!!! Really?! We are not talking about Stanford, Nerdwestern, or Lehigh.

WOW! That is hard to believe that Ramos is involved in some drama. I will stay tuned...

SetonHallPirate-Thanks for that clarification. I hope they get serious about the program or just cut it. Having 1 girl on the roster and 1 event is not a good way to start a program. The WCWA requires a team have at least 6 girls on a team for the season to be eligible for the WCWA Nationals. I know that LH is an NCAA school but for now those schools are going WCWA.

There is another D1 team and that is Lock Haven. I hope they start to take it seriously though. Last season they had 1 girl and only 1 event, an exhibition match. I hope that more girls will want to wrestle in college. As of now it appears that the market is flooded, because there are not enough girls to go around to all of these programs.

Sounds like he was able to sell himself to the right person. Good for him. We need more wrestlers getting different sponsors. This is a classic South Dakota vs. North Dakota match up. Thanks for sharing.
