2007 FALL TUNE-UP SERIES

 

The Colonial Forge Fall Tune-up Clinic Series offers five different clinics - each of which is led by a different college wrestling coach. They're held on weekends, running from 9/16 through 10/13, at Colonial Forge HS in Stafford, VA. (Perhaps it's not a coincidence that Colonial Forge wrestlers were state champs in 2006-07 :-)
-- Marshall's Outstanding Wrestler in 2006-07, Adam Fisher, attended these clinics and says he found them very helpful.
-- Cost is $150 (less expensive than most 5 day camps) and the coaching is first-rate. Enrollment is limited - so sign up early. www.virginiawrestling.com
 

2007 OFFSEASON WRESTLING CAMP

 

A reminder that all camp application forms need to be submitted to coach ASAP. If you need additional forms, they're available (in ready-to-print PDF format) right here on the marshallwrestling Web site!
-- The team camp is at State University of New York (SUNY) Courtland (Courtland, NY) from July 8-13.
-- Of course if you have any questions, see Coach Planakis!

A TERRIFIC 2006-07 SEASON!

 

Thank you and congratulations to our Statesmen wrestlers ... Varsity, Seniors and JV - 2006/2007:

VIDEO ABOUT AN AMAZING WRESTLER!

 

Penn State wrestler Rohan Murphy compiled a 30-3 record in his home state of Minnesota - despite the fact that his legs were amputated when he was four years old(!) He can bench press 290. His conditioning includes running up a ski slope on his hands. Here's a video of this inspirational athlete. We've got a link to an article about him as well. But if you just Google his name, you'll see lots more. Amazing - check it out!

2006 WRESTLER'S TEAMNOTES

 

We've got a set of notes for Marshall wrestlers (and their families), that covers the 2006 Marshall Wrestling program. It's pretty big (about 2.5 M-bytes!), but it includes information about tryouts, practices, equipment, eligibility requirements, match schedules, wrestling during holidays, weekly grade sheets, fundraising, spirit packs, and contact information ... as well as information for Team Managers and parent or other family volunteers!

    (If people ask for it, I'll try to create a smaller version with fewer graphics)

2006 TEAM DINNERS AT ANTHONY'S

Dinner Nights will be held at Anthony's in Falls Church, on Tuesdays twice a month. The detailed schedule, a copy of the latest Anthony's menu, and a restaurant review are all included:
