The boys were really busy today and didn't get to call very much if hardly at all. They are ready to make weight tomorrow. Nathan did wrestle injured today and will weigh in tomorrow but his coaches and doctors said that he will likely only go out if there is no show on the other team and that way he can get team points. Still appreciate the prayers and thoughts on that one. I don't know about any other potential injuries on the team. Freestyle starts tomorrow and our young men have another great chance to do well. Good night and remember.....

GO KANSAS

We arrived tonight in time to watch the dual for 7th. The boys are doing well and are ready for tomorrow. I brought my computer and the hotel has free wireless internet so I can send stuff faster hopefully. I took a picture of the team with their placque and medals and will email it you Furches. Can you get it on the site? I will also email it to Mr. Juby and hopefully we can get some pictures on quickly. Coach Peterman just said it is time to go to bed so I better be obediant. Talk to you guys in the am.

Jenni, get the photo's and I can have on my site by the end of the day.

I sent one last night. Did you get it?

Everyone is coming in this am to check their weight. I haven't heard any crying yet. I will take pictures today and send them after we finish around 5pm so hopefully on the web by tonight.

Maggie--got your private message and I will take care of it!!!!!!!!!

Have a great day.

Are we good on weights? When pictures are available let us know where to look. GO KANSAS!

I talked to Matthew at 10:15 our time and he thought everyone had made weight.

Does anyone know what the Freestyle pools look like, or will it go the same way as Greco?

Kansas has had 2 byes. Matthew wasn't sure who was in their pool

Haven't heard from anybody and no posts. Probably won't hear from Matt until late tonight.
Were they supposed to start FS @ noon today?
UPDATES ANYONE ? Thanks, Dan

I heard the Silver team has a ton of openings. Serveral of the kids moved to the Gold team, but I don't know why.

I also heard Matt was wrestling 119 on the Silver Team even though he made 112 and that left them open at 112??

They started at noon, when I talked to Matthew at 1:15 they had 2 byes. I just left a message for him to call me. I will let you know what he says.

Thanks "SIX" although I don't know you by that.
Matt wrestled a couple of matches at 19 in GR also. Did he make 12 in FS? We're they given an allowance? I think he was concerned he could make 12 again. Thought Fisher was going to wrestle 12 for them as he was closest to making it.
Pretty hard on the Ole man, I believe it's the first time Matt's been away like this and we haven't been close to the action and trying to decipher the brackets & ask questions about them. Learning experiance for all. Hope their having the time of their life, know their gaining valuable experiance. Thanks again, Dan

!HEY JENNI!,

if you want to save time on the way home from Greely; here are the directions:

you bacially are taking US-34 all the way to Haigler NE, then KS 27 south to Goodland, then I-70 east until your home.

take US-34 east from Greeley, it will take you to I-76.
Take I-76 to exit #92 (last Brush Colorado exit)

Get back on East US-34 to Haigler NE.
turn south on KS 27, to US-36, turn east on US-36 to Wheeler, then back south on KS-27 to Goodland, take I-70 back to Wichita.

this will save you at least hour and half driving time, or more if you dont go back to Denver to hit I-70.

its about 2.5 hours to Sainty from Greeley.
its about 5-5.5 hours to Wichita from Sainty.

if you pass though, stop and say hello, i'm at 505 S. Scott.

Goodluck,to Jared, and say hello to Gabe for me! and keep us informed whenever possible.

GO TEAM KANSAS!

i think Kansas Gold team is pretty solid, lot of talent as i witnessed tuesday and wedsnesday in greco action.

the silver team should compete well also. although one team member decided not to wrestle freestyle at the 11th hour for unknown resons. leaving another open spot on the silver team. hopefully things will workout for him.

team Kansas was in every single Greco dual they competed in, couple of calls and key matches could have gone either way, unfortunately the calls didnt go our way. all the duals they lost were very close.

i think team Kansas will do very well, of course, it depends what kind of pool they are placed in and the draws they have, hopefully we'll have better luck and good luck.

i know a couple of the guys are nursing some injuries, tweaked groins, sore shoulders, etc.. hopefully they'll be close to 100% the rest of this week, kick some butt, and bring home a team medal!

..GO TEAM KANSAS!..

Ok here is what I have so far. KS Gold just took a butt wooping from PA around 46-23. It was painful. More details later. KS Silver lost all 3 rounds this pm. We are on a break now, I boys are going to eat but I am choosing to spend my time with you all --that should be y'all back home. We go back at 6pm and hopefully it should be better. Coach Peterman is supposed to get me the detailed sheets but it won't be until after dinner now and it will probably be on intermat by then. No one is hurt --newly,that I know of. Furches didn't wrestle-he is still hurt, but is getting around fine, so not to worry. People are emailing me right ands left. I'll be back.

I just got home from doing a funeral so any info is appreicated. I have corrected some of the earlier posts and don't even know if Nathan is wrestling,any info would be appreciated here as well, I know he was hurting with the groin pull, possible hernia. I have also sent the one photo I have to my web master and asked him to put a rush on getting it up, will let you know when I know something.

Next year lets get some vans and share some costs, this is driving me crazy (should say crazier). :rolleyes:

I agree Mike. When I read that a silver team member "chose" not to wrestle, that wakes me wonder....Hummmmm Appreciate any info and thanks for all your info so far. Bravo to coach Ed in getting info to us. Why arent the Freestyle pool on Mat.com?

Jim Gaither has offered to put them up on our NWJG website. I am readying him an email right now.

Don't mean to sound dumb but NWJG website?
