Where did they wrestle yesterday?

Hope they are able to keep their program going. Good luck to Pike Central sounds like they are in a tough situation.

Will he redshirt this season?

I was told he is the assistant at Bourbon County this year.

Good luck to Newport this season.

Who did each team scrimmage?

Wayne or Mccreary? Wayne is solid from 160 down ,young up top but athletic.Mccreary has everyone back. They will match up well with Sheldon,especially with the 103 and 112 gone from Sheldon.

Wayne was without a 189. Mccreary look good at 125,130, 171,189,215,and hwt.

Try Eric Dingus? He helped Pike Central last year.

Is the school buying a mat for the program or Coach Rocca buying it? Call Crown Gym Mats in Barrington,Illinois. They handled used mats also.

Letcher has some good young wrestlers . Good luck this season.
