His first real bus ride

I took my son to the Greyhound station ta 6:25 this morning…

Last night, he called me on the phone to tell me that he HAD to be in Wichita by 1:00 P.M.

Well, Mom and Dad have jobs…with bosses who actually expect them to show up for work every day!

…so “Go Greyhound!”

Why did he have to be in Wichita this after noon?

The Junior National Duals tournament starts tomorrow. 32 teams from 27 states will wrestle each other in a dual meet fashion, team against team.

Evidently, the #1 160 pound wrestler in the Kansas (3rd in the nation) hurt his ankle at the U.S. Olympic Training facility yesterday. The coach of the Kansas team called Big A and asked if he could wrestle in his place!

This is another great opportunity for him as it is an invitation only national tournament. He will be competing against 25-30 of the top wrestlers from around the country!

But, he has to lose 5 pounds by tomorrow to qualify!
