Junior High Registered: October 06, 2003 Posts: 510 | As I stated in another thread; I know of 4 wrestlers going to Fargo and heard there might be about 12 or so total going from Nebraska. I know the preparations are going full swing for the wrestlers with links to the Exploradories and the Exploradories wrestling camp: DeVaughn Perkins, Trenton Washington, Dan Pedersen and Terrell McKinney. I don't know the weights other than Dan who is going 112 in freestyle. They are working out today at 3 different locations today: Skutt, Edmonson Youth Center and Millard South. It's a long day and the week is just getting started. And really, preparations have been underway for 6 weeks with the wrestling camp. Does anyone have a full list of who is going? As to coaches; I know Roger Parker (Exploradories) and Johnny Galloway (Gross) are going to Fargo. |
World Champion Registered: August 27, 2002 Posts: 6425 | I believe Jay Sherer and some Millard South boys are headed up. I'll try to get a complete list. |
Rookie Location: Omaha, NE Registered: December 12, 2002 Posts: 161 | Hi All, I don't have the complete list right now, but I should have the finalized situation by tonight. As of right now, with all the changes and so forth that have been taking place, it looks like this: LT Switzer Matt Vacanti Joel Torpy Aaron Denson Jake Smith Jay Sherer Nick Meneely Greg Garcia Mitchell Jennings Cameron Brown and the four from Exploradories listed above I think altogether we have about 12 to 14 which makes this the smallest group that I can remember. Again, I hope to have an updated list by tonight. We were still scratching kids last night. Coaches for the event, I believe, are Roger Parker, Jay Meneely, Doug Denson, Joe Ellenberger, and Alan Pokorny |

Not positive but I think Andy is hurt. 'Spect Pinmachine and/or Badger can clear that one up. |
Junior Varsity Registered: December 09, 2002 Posts: 677 | Spoke with the entire Pokorny family this last weekend. It is confirmed that Andy is hurt, & will not go to Nationals this year. Badger or Pinmachine will have to give more details as to why. LG |
Junior High Registered: October 06, 2003 Posts: 510 | So with Marvin Peterson; the total is now tentatively 15. 15. Marvin Peterson |
