Guys, i have some questionable news. As some of you know i was battling a torn labrum for my junior and senior year, which caused me to fall short of the results i had wanted in my high school career. I underwent surgery in march, and am currently rehabbing. Here comes the sucky part. I was told by my doctor that i wouldn't be ready to even start training until november. That obviously crunches my hopes for the coming year at labette. However, my plans are to take a couple classes online, train, lift, work, and possibly wrestle at some opens during the college season. I do plan on hitting it hard for the 2013-2014 season. Congrtulations to all of the other college bound senior this year. I wish you all the best of luck next year. Especially Bo lol.
Nick Pursel
Nick, Thank you for the update. I will change you to indicate that you are planning to wrestle as an Open Wrestler on the list for next year.

Please alert me to any additions, deletions, or other information that needs to be changed on the above list. Thank you.
I ask for a notice from the parent, wrestler, high school coach, college coach or a newspaper announcement. I want to be very careful before listing someone because the recruiting process made not be done before a wrestler actually commits.
Any information you are able to provide concerning athletic or academic accomplishments would be appreciated.
