At this time, the marshallwrestling.org Web site is primarily preserved as an archive of the team's activities during 2006-2008. As such, the links and content on these pages are from those years, and many of the links are undoubtedly out of date. Again ... for up to date information, you should be using the new gcmstatesmensports site, listed above. Thanks!

Go Statesmen! Marshall Pride!

Marshall Wrestling Fans:

Yes, Andy looked very good wining his first-round match against the number two seed from the Central District. He then lost in the quarter finals at 6:30 on Friday and lost again around 9:30 in the consolation bracket against wrestlers from the Northwest Region.

In his first match, Andy was ahead 6-2 in the third period and comfortably controlling his opponent. Then things turned Bad (with a capital B). I'll omit the editorializing … the facts will speak for themselves: During an out of bounds stoppage, the opponent was ruled to have engaged in unsportsmanlike conduct and the referee awarded Andy an extra point. When wrestling resumed, the opponent was penalized for eye gouging (two more points). As you can imagine, Andy was in a tremendous amount of pain and discomfort. He wanted to finish wrestling but the trainer declared Andy medically unable to continue and the match was stopped. So Andy won the match by disqualification; the official score was 9-1.

Because Andy was medically unable to continue, we had to take him to a clinic to be cleared by a doctor so he could wrestle in the quarterfinals. That process took about 1-1/2 hours, but we got him back to the school well before the 6:30 quarterfinal round.

Many thanks to everyone who supported Andy through his run in the regional tournament and here at states. I was especially pleased to see how many folks came to watch him in the regionals on the final day, including last year's wrestlers Adam Fisher and Raffi Teperdjian.

After a great season from all of our wrestlers - we have one still standing

Andy O'Meara will be wrestling today at 4:30 for 3rd place against Marvin Gomez of Edision. (His success so far has already won him a ticket to States!) Come and cheer him on, and then stay for some great finals.

Good luck Andy! Wear that “M” proudly! Great season Statesmen - the future looks bright!
