9-1...

There isn't much else to say other than Tanner really did some damage last night with his 3 EXTREMELY decisive wins. Pinned all 3 of the guys he wrestled and 2 of them were in the first 20 seconds of the 1st period. The other guy lasted till the second but he also pinned the other two. Tanner is doing amazing and really shows a lot of confidence out on the mat. He is so much fun to watch. In the last match I could only snap off 3 pictures thats how fast he ended it. He is really looking forward to this weekend where he has a really big tournament at Adams Central in the neighboring town of Hastings... Hopefully he will get some good competition there. ALSO I hope he wins them all because I'm don't think I'm going to make it since I have my end of the year Rugby banquet. Here are pictures of how each match ended...




The part I was most impressed by was he didn't just use his favorite move to pin them all. When he did use it the guy basically put himself in the perfect position for it. So his record stands at 9-1 with 6 falls.

Tanner at Walnut Meet...

Here we are and Tanner is 6-1... yes he has one loss under his belt but I see it being the only one of the season since he had the guy in the first then just put himself in a HORRIBLE position and just couldn't find a way out. With a few more matches under his belt he is getting to be a little more diverse in his moves and you can tell his confidence in each match is getting better and better. Here are a few pictures that I took with my BRAND NEW camera.

Thanksgiving Break!!!

Well here it is Thanksgiving break!!! and wow I don't think I have ever been more excited it has finally come! Well I'm about ready to leave for GI I just need to grab all 15 tons of my laundry so I can get caught up.... I don't even have clean jeans to wear.... I think I'm gonna wear shorts and a long sleeved T which will pry be the last time I could even think of trying that this year... O well the open road calls my name so I better start heading... I should have some good pictures... and an update on T-bone... He has another meet today looking to keep that loss column with a big ole goose egg.

Tanner

Tanner is the youngest brother... but he is also the biggest of us boys. He is 14 and well he is one heck of a big kid. He loves his sports especially football, but right now he is on a traveling basketball team and also is on the wrestling team. His wrestling record is 3-0 and he has one pin on the season so far. His last meet he should have made that two but he just couldn't figure out what was wrong with his cradle that he had the guy in. Here are a few pictures of him really kicking some butt on the wrestling mat. I guess you could say all that beating on him a couple of years ago from Jordan and I is really starting to pay off. Ha Ha
