I know of at least one young cadet that asked to be on the team at 160 since day one. I realize he is young and may not have the credentials of the others you’ve been trying to get. He did however win the Kansas Triple Crown last year, won folk style state the last two years, won brute this year, and went 7-1 at middle school duals this year. What do you have to do to be considered?

John,

I sure know about Cameron and was happy to see him make the Middle School trip. These duals are 90% Juniors. The four that I've listed above are High School champions or placers:

Ryan Patterson - 44-0 - State Champion
Kyle Allen - 33-1 - State Champion
Judd Schroeder - 35-1 - 2nd Place
Sam Thoman - 37-4 - 3rd Place

I am starting with those guys and work down from there. Have you contacted Scott Fausset about the other Kansas team?

Let me know if you need any other info.

I know that Camron is not in their league...:) Just thought that if you were still looking after 3 weeks that you might consider a kid that showed interest on the first day. I also know that Cokely and some others are afraid that he will get hurt because he doesn't have high school experience. That may be the case but what's he supposed to do because he's such a young cadet? Not wrestle free style and greco until after a couple years of high school?
