<Guest> | So McCoy is at Boystown not at North. Will this be true for the wrestling season as well? |
World Champion Location: Wayne, America Registered: October 20, 2002 Posts: 5714 | Michael Krajicek of Gretna is having a heck of a season right now. Scored 4 TD's on 8 rushing attempts against Schuyler and had a number of QB sacks as well. He's solid and playing well right now for G-Town. Joe Janovich didn't go out for FB this year. From what I understand, the groin injury he suffered at districts last year bothered him all summer during baseball, and he's taking the fall to get that healed up. If he and Krajicek are 100 percent and this new kid that moved in from Washington is as good as advertised, Gretna will be tough from 160-189.

Junior High Registered: September 30, 2004 Posts: 534 | Josh Hartwell of Crete is also having a good season in football, playing DE and RB for Crete. He's undersized but he plays hard all the time. Chad Mattox |
<Guest> | Ryan Molacek of Stanton may be one of the best running backs in the state, regardless of class. |
<Guest> | Ollie Sloup from LSW. Last friday he had 19 carries for 229 yards and 3 TD's. Plus he's only a sophomore. |
Rookie Registered: February 11, 2004 Posts: 155 | I coach midget FB (7th and 8th graders) in Lincoln, and I love having wrestlers on the team. These guys typically have a better concept of balance, hip location, good base, and keeping their feet moving upon contact. Many skills translate to FB from the mat. Mental toughness is one I shouldn't forget. |
Rookie Registered: February 11, 2004 Posts: 155 | I should have thought about Dan Bargen who wrestles and plays FB at Pius. He qualified for state at 171 last year as a Jr. and is solid on the field this fall. Masilko also played midget ball last year. I don't know if he's play FB this fall or not. Of course his size is not an advantage in FB at this point. |
Novice Location: St Paul, Mn Registered: November 14, 2002 Posts: 234 | This was the headline in a Minnesota newspaper "Augsburg football team pinning its hopes on wrestlers" Great article which compliments wrestling in general..Augsburg Wrestling You'll have to register to the paper to actually read the article... or send me an email and I can send it to you. k_highley@msn.com |
Rookie Registered: February 11, 2004 Posts: 155 | Silko, Glad to hear Alex is playing FB. From what I remember from last year, Alex wasn't about to back down from anyone. Glad that he's not letting size keep him from believing he can't mix it up this year. This year and last year on my midget FB team, one of the smaller guys each year was one of the most fearless hitters. That's the mental toughness I referred to in the earlier post. |
