If you happened to peruse the omaha.com website, you might have stumbled on an actual story about a wrestling dual.

DO NOT ADJUST YOUR MONITORS. That is Craig Sesker's account of the Millard South-Omaha Burke matchup Tuesday night, and it looked like he witnessed a doozy won by the Pats 36-33.

Go to Omaha.com and click on the sports section to read all about it. Omaha.com Website

Wrestling coverage in an actual newspaper, in this state? I'll be back later, going to go say some Hail Mary's and kneel all day long...

Mike C,
Your link on the results for 12/10 at NWI is to the results for 12/07. Just a heads up. If you change the date in the URL, you can still get to the right page, though.

How about Liechti? When DD says something about a quality wrestler one should usually listen closely to what he says. One heck of a victory over a very good senior from Millard South.

I read the article in the OWH and it was well done! I even commented so on their site. I think more comments are in order on the OWH site from us wrestling fans! It might show them that wrestling articles do get read.

After my initial shock passed, I hit the button and threw in a comment. Hope they actually publish it.

It is nice that there are actual stories that are starting to appear to support our wrestling programs. It sounds like the MS/Burke meet was a barn burner! You have two of the best teams going at it and then there is actual coverage in the press! Outstanding!
I am sure that Doug was proud of his team and I know that Mike will have his young team ready for the long haul!

Just came from there and neither Storm or NWI posts are there. Do you know if they check them before they go up?

Have to pass editorial muster before they go up. You know...the Jim Rome rule. LOL

I just got back from that article and I was amazed. I thought I had visited my friend Jack (JD for those that can't figure it out)before I read the article.....but it was actually a finely written (excuse grammar) piece of work. Bout time "the real sport of winter" gets the pub it rightfully deserves. smile

I nearly fell over when I saw Craig Sesker at our dual. He was really into it! He got treated to a great dual, so I am sure that helped. Down to the last match of the day; how could you ask for more? And then to have Craig ask really, really good, quality questions!!!!!!!! I felt like I had died and gone to heaven. I'm used to Stu the Popsicle asking if we thought we were going to win??????????

Now back to my prayer book!

my wife paid the premium for me, but it is in her email name. I tried to come over, but it wouldn't let me? Must be doing something wrong.

A lot of other people chimed in about the story plus there is another one about Hilario of burke. Most of the people threw in a jab that it is about time wrestling got the coverage it deserves!

Now's a good time for people to start writing letters to Larry King, executive editor, and Steve Sinclair, sports editor. Thank them for what they're doing by putting Craig Sesker on prep wrestling and encourage them to keep it up. They need to see the positive vibes as much as the negative.
