Kansas natives compete in USA World Team Trials - 04/15/09 01:25 AM

Council Bluffs, Iowa will be hosting the senior world team trials on the second to last weekend of May (see the mat.com for dates and details). These are the best wrestlers in America. . they are the guys who will represent our country at the World Championships at the Olympic caliber level!

Three Kansas natives are in the hunt for the number one spot: Eric Luedke, Joe Johnston, and Shawn Bunch.

This is a great opportunity for Kansas people to witness the best wrestling in the world at driving distance, and to go cheer on some of their own.

Want to let your young wrestler see the "real deal?" Take them to this event and they will learn more than I can say and they will be motivated beyond words can explain!

Want your wrestler to be a college champion. . .or an Olympian? They can accomplish only what they can visualize!

"How can you expect to win it if you have never watched it?"

I don't think Joe will be competing at the WTTs this year. He currently has a bulging disk in his neck and a broken rib. The last chance to qualify would be the Northern Plains Regional in two weeks and he will definately miss that.
