State Wrestling

Well state wrestling is over...our team ended up fourth in the duals which is better than anyone thought. When we got home I was looking through the Grappler Preview from last fall and most coach's didn't place us higher than 6th or 7th, so 4th feels pretty good. Nick got to wrestle at the tournament which was a really exciting to his overly excitable mom. (I thought I was going to throw up, he handled it fine) Also, congrats to Pat Rollins on his state championship at #119. We are now on to youth wrestling for Jacob and Matt and USA Wrestling for all 3. Jake and Matt have practice 2 nights a week and Nick helps coach Matt's group. Then they have all started wrestling with the USA program. That is coached by former University of Nebraska head coach Tim Neumann, he is a wonderful coach and we are lucky to have his expertise in our area. It is times like this when I am so glad Nick has a drivers licence.

EDC Wrestling

Well it's that time of year again, we are off to regionals. It's in West Fargo this year and the big news is Nick's wrestling varsity. He needs a win to qualify him to go on to state the following week. We will all be there to cheer him and the rest of our team on. I believe we are currently 3rd going into regionals and hope we make a good showing. We'll keep you posted as to how things go. If you are in the area we would love to see you in West Fargo, but make sure your wearing your Huskie colors!

In ND you build hills!

Yep, we had a hill built! When you have to drive to find a hill to sled on you have to improvise. Randy called up Comstock Construction and they came over and piled all the snow in our back yard into a huge pile. The kids have created sled runs all over it, bumpy ones, smooth ones, even curvy ones. Nick built steps up one side so it's easier to get up and down. Last night it was finally nice enough to get out and enjoy it (at least for me, I don't do cold) If your in the area stop by and let the kids give you a push down their "mountain".
