Just wanted to stop by the Kansas wrestling community and let you know we are still kicking. For those that don't know, Dana College shut down on June 30. With the help of my assitants we were able to move a good share of our wrestlers over to Midland University. It was a crazy 40 days, but I ended up with a great group of guys. The loyalty and trust is through the roof with these young men. Many of my guys never stepped foot on campus til the first day of classes. We have a very supportive President and are looking forward to big things here at our new home. Below is the group that made up the 2010 Midland Warrior recruiting class.

I cant image the layers of red tape---financial aid, transcripts, housing...parent issues- involved moving a whole group of wrestlers to a different university! you have some great project planning skills and tenacity! Great job! and Good Luck

We are looking forward to attending the Warrior- Viking Open at Midland on Sunday 1/2.

It's only about 3 1/2 hours from the KC area and the high schools are still on Winter Break. It would be great to have a big crowd attend and support this new team.

It has been a rough couple months. The red tape seemed to never end. I am very lucky to have the guys that I do have with me. When a kid is willing to put so much faith in me and my coaches it makes i all worth it. Thank you for all the support.
