Wow! Fager is a certified STUD.

We've got a STUD of our own at Olathe South. Freshmen Blake Jouret lost in double OT to Stoker of Olathe North in the 170 semifinals at the Sunflower League tournament. He was favoring his ankle after the match so we had the trainer evaluate him. Thinking it was just a sprain, we taped it up and Blake decided to give it a go. He then beat a quality opponent from Gardner in the consolation semis before losing 1-0 to Poritt from SMW for 3rd. The next morning, Blake's ankle was the size of a grapefruit. Xray's revealed a fracture, they put him in a splint, gave him some crutches and placed him on the shelf for 6 weeks.

His season may have been cut short, but we are so incredibly proud of Blake Jouret. He's a 14 year old freshmen who held his own at a man's weight all season. He wrestled half the season with a separated shoulder and gutted out his final two matches on a broken ankle. What a Warrior!
