Oh, and Congratulations Team Kansas Wrestlers and Coaches!
Awesome job, way to represent our state.

Heck, I wasn't even aware they kept team scores at wrestling tournaments!

This years trip to the Beach was a huge success! Placing in the top 5 as a team and having 6 All-Americans including a National Champion is as well as Team Kansas has done in recent history!

Much of the wrestling success is a tribute to the wrestlers high schools and area Kids clubs! I further think that a lot of credit goes to the coaches that organized sessions and opened up their rooms!! (maybe steal did sharpen steal ... :-))

From the logistics view a lot of credit should go to the individual families who adjusted very well to changes in the trip this year! Kathy and I have to thank you all for making this version so great!!

We would be terribly remiss if we did not give credit to USAW-Kansas and the Kids organization for their support! A huge thank you goes to Chuck and Cherie Elvin and to Gary Ulmer! The leadership that CCG has mapped for us a path that is very easy to follow!

We are already looking forward to 2013!!

Just wanted to give a big shout out and Thank you to everyone who was involved in putting together the trip to Virginia Beach. Randy and his family, Gary Ulmer, USAW-KS and especially Chuck and Cherie Elvin. I had heard they had laid the ground work for years, their efforts made it so easy for our guys to move thru the process while they where there.
Also a BIG thanks to the coaches who attended and ran from one matt to the other to coach Team Kansas and especially nice to see former Ks AA come back and help coach. You never want to forget where you came from and who helped you get there.
It was a very enjoyable trip even thou Javi was one match short of making the AA rounds, it was still a memory made.
Thanks again to everyone involved loved the trip and the young men represented the state of Kansas great!
