Distractions outside the wrestling room (e.g. Carnival) led to a lackluster week of practice and a very flat performance this weekend at all levels. Fortunately for us, we wrestled teams with a lot of holes in their lineups and were able to come away with victories. With only five weeks left in the season, we […]
The wisdom of Tiger Woods

Came across this quote from Tiger Woods in the latest Golf Digest: "The greatest thing about tomorrow is, I will be better than I am today. And that’s how I look at my life. I will be better as a golfer, I will be better as a person, I will be better as a father, […]

Varsity wrestled much better today and the JV put in a solid performance as we wrapped up the ILH Dual Meet Tournament. JV struggled in a few matches, but handily won their duals. And for the second time in as many years, the Varsity beat all the other ILH teams in a 24 hour period. […]

The distractions of finals week and carnival were evident in the way we wrestled last night. Most of the wrestlers lacked any sharpness or focus, but fortunately we were able to pull off some victories. The girls wrestled well in their dual meets, finishing the night 2-1. The Varsity boys looked a little flat against […]

Most of the Minnesota wrestlers rested last night and the rest of the team stepped up nicely. The boys beat a short-handed Damien team at both JV & VARS levels and the girls put in a good showing against Pac-5. The Varsity boys also wrestled well in a make-up dual against Pac-5. We were originally […]

The Journey Home

Filed under The Clash 2008
And “journey” is an apt description. Our trip home lasted a day longer than expected. Besides the Aloha Spirit, the other thing we apparently brought to Rochester was a “heat wave” of sorts (temperatures actually reached the 40’s!). Well, when you mix warm air and cold ground, you get fog. Lots of fog. Very dense […]
Home cooked meal in Chicago

Though overnighting in Chicago was not really anyone’s idea of a good time, being in Chicago did allow us a real treat: home cooking! Maika called the Holiona’s to let them know we were passing through town. Dana (with some help from Koa) pulled out all the stops and delivered a wonderful buffet of local […]
