This year, Tuff Hermreck will be stepping away from wrestling (oh he'll be back I'm sure!) to spend more time with this Grand-daughters, please come wish him well at the 2012 Paola Open.

There are many others that have shown interested; as I get site/time confirmations, this post will be updated.

I assume you'll give the satellite sites passwords to get into the tourney trackwrestling site and enter the weights directly into trackwrestling, correct? So you don't have to manually transfer them from an email, onto trackwrestling..........

Correct. I will send an email on Friday.

The tournament is now full! We hate to turn anyone away however to maintain the experience for everyone we need to do so as we have reached our limit.

Thank you for all the support!
