The overall results from last night's action isn't too bad. Of course, it all depends on how you view the results. We had some wins and we had some losses, but considering this is everyone's first year wrestling I think things went pretty good.
We started off going head-to-head with LaGrange. We won 3 matches and lost 4 matches. Chris Rice, Micheal Alexander, and Jacob Pirkle all won via pins. Nice job guys.
Next up was Bowden. We split the matches with Bowden 50/50, by winning 6 and losing 6. Josh Ivey, Chris Rice, Kenny Childers, Micheal Alexander, and Josh Ivey (2nd match) all got their wins via pin. Micheal Alexander also got another win via major decision 12-4.
Going forward, I plan to start giving out a "Fighter of the Night" award. This is a highly technical process of crunching numbers using advanced 3rd grade math.... :) - Anyway, winning the very first, and highly respected, Fighter of the Night award goes to.... Micheal Alexander! Not only did he have 3 matches and won them all, but they were all very exciting to watch. It is very obvious (especially to his opponents) that he is extremely strong, fast, and very athletic. Congrats Playboy! Also, I wanted to give an honorable mention to Josh Ivey for 2 entertaining fights. In his first match, he fought off a nice fluffernuggin, where it appeared that both guys were pinning each other simultaneously! Josh ended up winning the fluffernuggin battle and got the pin in the 3rd period. And, quickest pin honors goes to Chris Rice who needed only 21 seconds to pin his guy from Bowden! Nice!
Up next... The Alexander JV Challenge on Saturday morning. I don't have the start time, but Sat matches usually start @ 9am. I'm sure Coach Fuller will be giving the boys a complete itenerary tonight after practice with correct times. I hope everyone comes out and help support our boys in this tournament!
