Preston started youth wrestling the beginning of December and he had his first tournament this last Friday night.
Brookings had 36 youth wrestlers at the Cossack Clash tournament in Volga and they tied first for the team trophy! Go Bobcats!!
Preston wrestled three times.
He placed fourth in his group and got a t-shirt and a dog chain.
[He lost the first match and was pinned in the other two.]
While he didn't come out a big winner, he had a blast and at this point, that's all that matters.
He's excited to get back into practice (the lovely South Dakota weather has caused practice to be cancelled a few times) and I'm excited to watch him learn and progress.
Turner also wrestled Friday night.
He's part of Sioux Valley's youth wrestling program.
Turner placed 2nd in his group!
He did a great job and I'm so proud of him!
[Due to some confusion/miss-communication,
we missed Preston getting on the award stand. Bummer!]
Sioux Valley put on a great tournament and it was a crazy, fun Friday night!
