I want to congratulate Russ Allen, Juan Eldridge and Craig Gash for starting what will become a GREAT tournament. Yes, it did start late. But, first reason was due to the fog. Second was MR GASH making sure everyone wrestled as many maches as possible. Craig, you did and do a great job as a tournament director.

To get a high quality tournament started with great competition you have to have 2 things. 1. VENUE 2. HARDWARE. Both of these were at the top of what we have seen from our travels across the nation. IMO. They have the base for this thing to grow.

Were there bumps yesterday? Yes. Will they work them out in the YEARS to come? Yes.

For a first year tournament, this tournament went very smoothly.

Again,
Thanks for a great day and 6 great matches guys.
