Tough Looking Team. Best of luck to PCC Beaver Wrestling.

Mike Flynn

Good luck to all PCC wrestlers and staff. Great coaching staff should carry this team a long way. Look out for the 157 pounder.

Love the shirt's, How do I get one? Hinderliter and I just got to be the first street people to have them! Need a donation?

I believe I could come up with a few bucks! But we need to hide it from my wife ... she told me, "if you ever buy another wrestling shirt I will @#(()@_+@@#*&^^ your acorns!"

That might be something for the movie Jackass 3.

As for the shirts contact Coach Thompson at PCC at 620-450-2155. We are ordering more shirts, they won't be the same ones as in the picture but rather just be black and say Beaver Wrestling on the front I believe is the design we picked out.

Best of luck to all of you this year. I hope everyone of you has a very successful year in Pratt Community College's first wrestling season.

Tommy Edgmon is also on the team but is taking a redshirt year

yea sorry he was sick the day of the team picture so I forgot about him.

PCC wrestlers debut in Blue/White Scrimmage

It was an impressive debut for the Pratt Community College wrestling team at their first annual Blue/White Scrimmage on Friday night in the Dennis Lesh Sports Arena. Competing in eight weight classes and one exhibition match, Pratt certainly looked ready for their opener on Nov. 4th at Labette.

“I think we’re in good shape for Labette,” said Head Coach Chas Thompson. “I thought we would be within 3-4 points in all classes, and that was pretty much the case. Carl Wilkinson (Pawhuska, Okla.) was a bit of a surprise at 285, and Colby Crawford (Pawhuska) impressed me with his intensity on the mat.”

“All in all,” continued Thompson, “I was pleased. Our sophomores are going to be leaders in the middle weights. We need to correct those false starts, and maybe put a little more effort into our bottom work, but otherwise I really like what we showed tonight. And I thought we had a nice crowd to show that to.”

Approximately 200 spectators came to get a look at the new Pratt team, which will have its first home dual vs. Colby on November 15 at 7:00pm.

Beaver wrestlers win 2 in tourney
By Cody Hooten

CHANUTE — The Pratt Community College wrestling team opened its season this weekend at the Cameron Bradshaw Takedown Tournament, hosted by Labette Community College, then stuck around for a dual with Labette on Sunday. These matches marked the first competition for PCC wrestling since 1973.

At the tournament on Saturday, which was a pre-season tournament where the competitors only wrestle from the neutral position, two PCC wrestlers walked away with championships. Joey Stephens, a freshman from Derby, won the 120 pound division and Jason Nichols, a freshman from Garden City, won the 160 pound division. The matches consisted of one three minute period. Stephens and Nichols had the most takedowns at the end of their period.

Stephens defeated Ryan Lessener of Lincoln (Ill.) College in the finals to take the title, while Nichols defeated Joe Yust from Labette for the win.

Head Coach Chas Thompson had high praise for his two winners.

“Stephens was very impressive,” Thompson said. “He used some big moves to put each one of his opponents to their back in all of his matches. Nichols was also impressive in his showing, not surrendering a single takedown in the tournament.”

Justin Naccarato, a sophomore from Valley Center, took second in the 200 pound weight class, James Fox, a freshman from Douglass High School, placed third out of the 136 pounders and Colby Crawford, sophomore from Pawhuska, Okla., came in fourth out of the 144 pounders.

“Overall I thought we wrestled well on our feet Saturday,” Thompson said. “We looked a little flat on our feet that first round but were able to turn things around after that and have a pretty decent showing.”

PCC took their lumps in their dual with LCC, the second ranked NJCAA team in the country, on Sunday, losing 31-10. They walked away with three wins out of 10 matches. The wins came from Matt Banta, 125 pound freshman from Arkansas City, who pulled off a miracle two point reversal with four seconds left in the match to take the one point victory.

“I was happy with the win but Matt looked a little sloppy at times and he knows that. It’s nothing we can’t fix, though,” Thompson said of his young wrestler. “You got to love Matt for his guts though. One second I’m thinking he blew the match and the next he regained his lead for a huge win.”

Also, 149 pound freshman Rylan England from Duncan, Okla., and Naccarato at 197 pounds both won in dominating fashion.

“Rylan is a gamer, who was actually a 141 pounder that took one for the team and bumped up to the 149 pound class,” Thompson added. “Justin is a pretty intense kid that we know that we are going to get the full seven minutes out of every time.”

“I’m somewhat pleased with our performance,” Thompson said of their overall performance on Sunday. “We won three out of 10 matches today. I thought we should have taken two more matches from them. LCC came in very well prepared and is a solid team. I knew what we were up against. They are well coached and always in very good shape. I received several compliments after the dual on how good the kids looked and that they are happy to see another wrestling program starting in Kansas.”

The PCC wrestlers will be back in action this weekend, traveling to Chanute for a duel with Neosho County Community College and then to Warrensburg, Missouri, for the Central Missouri State Tournament.

Pratt Community College had an impressive 31-10 victory over Neosho Community College on Saturday afternoon in Chanute. Congratulations on the first duel win of the season. They had some good performances at the Central Missouri State tourney as well.

Pratt Community College moves to 2-1 on the dual year with a 24-15 win over Colby Community College last night at Dennis Lesh Sports Arena in Pratt, KS. The dual started at 125lbs.

Pratt 24 Colby 15

Big win for Pratt at 141. What was the score and who was leading at the time of the fall?

Crawford was up 6-4, Younkin shot in, Crawford countered and took Levi straight to his back.
The first point of the match was a stalling point against Younkin, followed quickly by a takedown from Crawford, followed by three back points. Younkin escapes, gets a takedown, then gets another escape to start the third period.
Does anyone know about Lance Roe? Is he JV? injured? I was looking forward to watching him last night.

Crawford is tough. He is expected to be an All-American this year.
