We are putting together a dual team for the USJOC Dual on Sunday following the JOC tourny in Oklahoma City. You do not need to be in the tourny to wrestle in the duals. Info on the duals are on the OK youth web page. We are looking for young men for the 90,95,120,130,140,160,185 and Hwt This is a 15 and under dual, so in these upper weights we need to find older boys to fill these spots.
There will probably be up to 12-14 teams, so you will get 5-7 matches on Sunday. If you have any questions, contact Dal Eck at (316)641-4913 or Chris Bowen at (316)992-8060.

This will be a great opportunity to get in some quality matches. Oklahoma will have at least 8 teams. Tx will have two, Arkansas will have one, Kansas may have a second team and hopfully Missouri will have one. If you have never wrestled in a dual format, it is a lot of fun and you will meet many new friends. Come on big guys and let's fill this team up.

I am still looking for some young men for the dual team. Here is who we have so far:
40-Monte Guerrero
45-open
50-McCrackin
55-Spangler
60-Pirl
65-Dryden
70-Moss
75-Eck
80-Bowen
85-Moses
90-Prieto
95-Deshazer
100-open
110-Adcock
120-Haskins
130-Turner--James call me
140-Castleberry
160-open
185-open
Hwt-open

If we cant't fill these pretty quick we are gooing to ask Oklahoma kids for help. I know there are some down there that would love to get in some quality matches on a good team.

How much is Tommy Marquez weighing nowadays?

How much is it and do parents have to pay to get in. Garrett haskins is 120. Just have to see if we could afford t stay another day

The entry fee is $300. There are 20 men on the team, so $15 apiece. There are 9 teams so they will have two pools and then a bracket. It should be alot of fun. I'm thinking we will be out of there by 5. You have to be in the tourny to wrestle the dual. We would sure be happy to put Garrett on the team if you want to.

Doug I talked to Tommy at Derby and he didn't know if he wanted to go. I saw on the entries that there are a lot of kids entered in these weights from Kansas, I don't understand why they wouldn't want to wrestle. Maybe they don't read the forum, so if anybody out there knows of some of these kids going, please give them a heads up.

It is another night at a hotel,and $15, but the experience is well worth it. Figure out how the dual format works, meet and get to know some of the other kids from around the state, and get to wrestle some tough kids from other states.

I HIGHLY recommend you getting your kids involved in this type of event.

Doug

This was one dad didn't try to challenge.


Good luck Team KS. Keep us updated!

Team Kansas is wrestling for 3rd right now, and are ahead 31-18. Lost a close dual to Edmond that kept us from wrestling for 1st. This is all I've heard.

We were 4th. Had a good time

Thanks to Team Kansas for letting Seth wrestle for you yesterday at the team duals He, as well as I, met some good kids and parents and thanks from both of us.
