Happy Friday Hokie Wrestling Faithful, it's been awhile since I've been on here, so I thought I would say "Hi!"
It's been quite the year, and we finished it up with our annual awards banquet last night, before the guys finish up there exams and head home for a couple weeks.
The banquet was a little different w/no parents, wives, or fans, but it was great getting all the boys and support staff together to celebrate their achievements and have one last meal together as a family.
The last 6 weeks has been quite the whirlwind - with the NCAAs concluding, Olympic Team Trials 2 weeks later and then concluding with the US Open and Jr. World Team trials last weekend!
The Open was a blast, w/ James and Bryce both winning 70kg, and Ty, Nahshon, Andy, Clayton and Cooper all placing top 6! We also had a commit that we are pretty excited about do great too! ;). That event qualifies Bryce to go compete in the Jr. World Championships in Ufa, Russia, August 16-22.
Other then that the Dead Period ends in 3 weeks, so we are setting up some exciting official visits, as well as plan on being in living rooms across the country in early June!
Next years line up should be young and strong with the possibility of a couple strong additions!! So stay tuned, the next couple months Robie and Co. will be shaking the bushes and continuing build from with in, making the future of Hokie Wrestling the best yet!
