Parkwayred,
If I was incorrect about the manhattan clubs having wrestlers outside of the school district then I am sorry. But I was under the impression that there were a few that did indeed come from the outside. It is not like it would be a bad thing if they did. But you are wrong about Abilene. We have and still do have wrestlers from outside are community that wrestle for us. Do we recruit them, no, they come to our club because they like how we run practice, they like the coaches, and they know they will get a lot better than wrestling elsewhere. John Woodbridge wrestled for us last year, he is from Salina and I bleieve he finished 3rd this year, he since went back to Salina so he could wrestle with his friends. We have a few kids from Brookeville that also come. Also Elijah Madison practiced with us almost all year long. Anyway I don't want you to think I was talking bad about Manhattan cause I wasn't, I like the manhattan club very much, you guys have excellent coaches and are very good when it comes to sportsmanship at least as far as I have observed.
