I just now have access to a computer!

Yesterday made the whole trip worth it! For any of you that thought the competition was not great out here, I can clear you up in detail upon request. These guys BATTLED to win the Dual Title for the second straight year! The final dual came down to the last match with a 32-30 lead going in.

I could not be more proud to coach these young men! Thank you to Pat Naughton and Anthony Livengood for coaching up these champions.

Thank you also to Grandview High School here in Aurora, CO for allowing us to use their awesome room to workout in!
