I was told by a St. Thomas Aquinas wrestling parent that he does contact good wrestlers from public school programs about attending St. Thomas Aquinas. Likely that is what is happening rather than the coaching staff from Aquinas making those contacts.

The public school wrestling coaches in the Johnson county area will almost all tell you that most of their good wrestlers have been contacted by a representative of St. Thomas Aquinas about attending that private school, and being catholic is not a criteria for those calls.

Having the economic means to attend a private school seems to be no barrier. Even the kids from families who's parents can least afford the cost of private schooling are contacted and can attend, scholarships are available.

This has been an irritant for the public school coaches in the Johnson county area for several years.

Time Stands Still
