I would like to invite your team/club to our summer dual tournament. It is a FOLKSTYLE dual tournament the weekend of July 24-25, 2015. You can use your MS kids through to your OUTGOING SENIORS! Adidas has agreed to become a sponsor for 2015! They will give out 30 sublimated singlets to the Champion Team, a pair of shoes to the lower weight OW, and a pair to the upper weight OW.

We will run 2 pools of 8 teams and get 15 matches in a single weekend! Bring your HS team or your All-Star Team.

On Thursday July 23 we have a FREE clinic with TJ Sewell. TJ was a 3X All-American at Oklahoma University, an NCAA Runner-Up, and is 2nd in wins in OU history. After the clinic, we will have the ONLY WEIGH IN. Then there will be a Coaches/Officials social.

Our host motel is giving us a rate of $42.50 + tax, and that is good for 4 people to a room. That breaks down to less than $12 per kid, per night.

I currently have teams committed from: AL, FL, IA, IL, IN, KS (Coach Harris brought 2 teams down last year), MO, NV, OK, & TX. **This lineup is subject to change**

Last summer’s top finishers:

1st-Turks Head (Pennsylvania), 14-0
2nd-Team St. Louis, 12-2 *head-to-head tie-breaker
3rd-Virgin Valley HS (Nevada), 12-2
4th-South Florida Lightning, 11-3 *head-to-head tie-breaker
5th-Kansas Black, 11-3
6th-Kansas Gold, 9-5

7th-Lone Star Elite (Southlake, TX) 8-6
8th-DFW Compound (Arlington, TX) 7-7

Let me know if you are interested or need anything.

Thanks,
Nick McClellan

Very fun tournament to watch with some great wrestling for sure. Hopefully the referees stick around. They missed a lot of good wrestling on day 2! LOL

Aaron,
You are right, they did miss a lot of good wrestling! I have made changes to that aspect of the tournament. I am glad y'all had fun, and I look forward to another great tournament.

Thanks,
Nick

Coach Harris is getting his team(s) together, don't miss out! I have also heard that Maize might be putting a team together. It looks to be another Kansas heavy field. smile

Adidas is running specials for this tournament as well. Let me know if your interested in Adidas gear.

Thanks,
Nick

Hall of Fame Coach Jimmy May who was recently hired by KWU has talked about him using this as a recruiting tool.

Adidas has some new shoes out and they are SICK!! Keep in mind that Adidas is running some Tournament Specials, let me know if you need anything. Don't miss out on this great event.

The field has changed some...and might change again before the first whistle. The response from coaches, kids, and parents has been so positive that we have increased the field to 21 teams!
