Observations from the Officials’ Tournament

Filed under Coach's Comments
Here are some random thoughts I had about this week’s tournament: It’s a shame more care wasn’t put into seeding the brackets. Setting up brackets so that the “top” wrestlers are separated is one of the more time consuming parts of a tournament and it’s usually the reason most tournaments start late. That said, the […]

Our Girls’ team had a great outing last week, wrestling extremely well at the two-day Moanalua Tournament. Considering we had less than two weeks on the mat and it was our first tournament of the year, the girls looked very sharp.

2008 Punahou All-Americans
The 2007 -2008 season was a great one for us in so many ways. One of the more gratifying accomplishments was that our wrestlers earned All-American honors an incredible 14 times.
