Too many to send via email. I will post them to my facebook page though. If you want to see any pictures from Team 3 Barbarians, come on facebook and invite yourself to be my friend and then you can download any of them you'd like...cabrini plummer

I want to thank all of the parents who came from the four corners of the state to assemble the four teams. We packed all of the 80 plus kids into passenger vans and drove them up to Iowa to battle with kids from the four corners of the U.S. All of them had a great time and I got a couple of really cool Thank You cards signed by all of the future HS state champs for Kansas.

A special thanks to the parents and coaches who without them this weekend would not have been possible.

Doug Vanderlinden (A five year veteran! Without Doug I don't think we would even try to do this!)
Matt Collins (Has made four out of the five years including the drive home through tornado alley. Matt makes these events a lot more fun and he is a great help)

And all of the other moms and dads who gave up their weekend to help drive, work tables or just scream and yell in support of Teams Kansas.

THANK YOU!

Kenny Bird as well. He scored and worked the clock for Team 3 for all 8 duals.

Dual of the tourney! Michigan MYWA heavyweight on top position, Team 3 Gladiator on bottom, MI up 2-1 and the team score tied 40-40. 3rd period and time running out. MI gets to high and KS Gladiator heavyweight pulls him over and pins him with about a second left! The whole gym erupts!


This Heavy Weight was our own Raymond Gallegos from Newton, KS! It was an awesome match!!! We are so proud of you Raymond!! I think we all are still feeling the excitement from this match!!!! As well as all the Kansas Middle School kids who went to represent Kansas!!!! Great Job All !!!! Thanks to all of you who helped make this all possible, it was a great experience for my son and he really enjoyed it. Already talking about wrestling again next year to qualify to go again!!!

Ray was wrestling for Team 1...with that win the boys beat Michigan who the day before destroyed one of our Kansas Teams. So payback was a little sweeter.. It was kind of neat most of the other Kansas teams where around watching... When Raymond pinned him everything went wild...It made our 11Hr. trip well worth it in just that moment. Good learning experience for several of our boys from Southwest Kansas. Think you Will the words you gave my boy stuck with him.

That was an awesome time. That last match was the best it was a match that will be really hard to forget.
