As you might have read in another topic or have heard from other people...this was my last Kansas Kids State Tournament. Due to a promotion with my job my wife and I are moving back to my home state of Oklahoma. I will miss seeing all of the coaches and wrestlers that I have grown close to over the past 7 years with Carroll Jr Wrestling. I am the first to say that I would match Kansas up with any other state in the nation. We have a great organization. I know that the coaches that I have been around have been nothing but the best.

I will say this with out reservation...I have coached the best team in the State during my tenure as head coach. Our parents have allowed me to make their children the best they can be. There support, to me, is unparalled by any other club. If you do not feel that way about your team then you need to go find anther one.

This past week-end was very bitter sweet. I was very sad to walk away from such a great atmosphere for this sport, but I have never been so proud of the young men on our team. I can say that I have never been around a group of young men that prepared to be the best they could be every night and every week-end. You knew that you got everything when you wrestled us and that is a product of great parents and great coaches. Our coaches had one goal in mind...making sure that I and the rest of our team did everything we could to prepare our wrestlers.

I know that Carroll Jr Wrestling will continue the path I have set. Coach Dan will make sure of it.

Thank you to all who I have competed against and know that I always hated loosing to you and loved it when we won. I hope you felt the same about me.

Take care and keep up with me as I will with you,

Coach Craig Adams
