Jesse Bush and his parents Jane and Greg. Jesse has competed for 4 years and wants to attend Suny Cobelskill.

Last, but not least, Kyle Dake, his mother Jodi and yours truley. Kyle has competed for the LHS wrestling team for the last 6 years. Last night he added 2 more victories to his career record bringing that total to 199-14. Kyle plans to attend Cornell next year.

These kids have consistantly preformed  at a high level both in the class room and on the mat. We will miss them.

Lansing beat Watkins Glen 57-12 Recording falls were, Kyle Dake, David Ryan, Jon Fenner, Jon Glennon, Corey Dake, Joe Jimenez, Sean Eastman,and John Oblinski. Jesse Bush recorded an 8-3 decision.

Our last leg of the tri meet had the "Cats" wrestling Elmira Notre Dame. Unfortunatley END has only 3 wrestlers. We tried to match up Kyle with Tom Cerio at 152, but END chose to forfiet, and move Cerio to 160 where he beat Jesse Bush, James Dewey of END beat Jon Fenner at 171, 10-3. Jon Glennon pinned END's Brian Armstrong to round out the night. Lansing won the meet 48-9.

I would like to thank the community for there support at our pancake breakfast fund raiser last Sunday at Applebees. It was nice seeing and visiting with  past wrestlers, their families, and freinds of the team , both past and present. Special thanks to Laura, and Mark Ryan who set up the event. I think we'll do it again.

Finally, Thankyou to all that have shown up to our events this year, both away, but especially at home. It was a pleasure to see Dr Grimm and meet his family, the Brantners, and others who I couldnt visit with. THANKS.

Next up: IAC Tournament at Watkins Glen. Start time: arond 10:00 am. See You There.
