Attention Parents, NO PRACTICE Wednesday. We have the middle school conference finals at Desert Vista. If you'd like to bring your wrestler to come watch their AWC teammates, the tournaments begins at 4:30.
Practice is still on for tonight, 5:45-7pm. You can watch the Cardinal game later.
If you were planning on wrestling at the Chandler Tournament on Saturday, it's been cancelled however, we will be doing our old "Saturday Morning Live" wrestling at AWC Saturday Morning if you want some mat time, 10am-11:30.
Parents, there are multiple middle school "State" tournaments. The first one coming up January 15th is the one where any kid can enter regardless of their team affiliation. For kids in Kyrene, you can NOT enter as a representative of your school and you can NOT wear your school singlet. You CAN however, enter as a representative of a club or just "unattached". This tournament is at Perry High School. I'll post the link to the trackwrestling.com page for more information. I'd love to see all of our AWC middle schooler's jump in on this one and make a strong showing. https://www.trackwrestling.com/opentournaments/MainFrame.jsp?newSession=false&TIM=1641272140829&pageName=ViewerInformation.jsp%3FTIM%3D1641272141592%26twSessionId%3Dzgwadxorgv&twSessionId=zgwadxorgv
Especially for our new kids and middle schoolers, the natural instinct when a guy gets heavy on your head is to back away or try to pull your head up. As usual, Coach Kolat has some simple yet essential instruction for that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdQPBKnEPBY

Great day of wrestling!!!
Some of these kids have been practicing together for up to three years in club wrestling and now are finally competing against each other for rival Ahwatukee schools, only to then go back to practice together again at AWC. This really is a great community and a great sport that continues to bring people together. With no middle school season last year, this photo has been a long time coming, and it was a blast to see it finally come together tonight!
Great Monday Night Practice at the club tonight! Come see why we are more than wrestling!!!

Great morning of wrestling!!!
More big news!!! The TrackWrestling archive is finally available for folks with FloPro! So if you are awake at 3am and want to watch matches which were only available with a Track membership like RBY vs. Jason Holmes in the state finals, you can now browse years worth of matches on track wrestling, so if I seem sleepy at practice, its probably because I've been watching a giant backlog of matches I didn't get to see over the last decade.
Great morning of wrestling over at Chagolla Trained Wrestling at Cortez High School! Thanks to all the coaches who helped out and thanks to the Chagolla crew for helping our kids get some Saturday morning scraps in! Nobody won any state titles this morning. Nobody went undefeated. Everybody improved. AZ is moving up and this is part of the process!
