Dear Duck Wrestling Fans,
Well, it’s been a few weeks since I got a blog update out to you all...This is an amazing time of year when we perform an end of the season review, we transitions recruiting from 2009 grads to 2010 and we work to pump up our 2009 Stevens Summer Wrestling Camps (July 5-11th at www.StevensDucks.com)!
Most recently, I had the opportunity to go to Council Bluffs, Iowa, for the US World Team Trials in Freestyle and Greco. What a great week! I attended the Silver Coaches Clinic where we had no less than 8 world and Olympic champions demonstrating technique. I took over 26 pages of notes on the technique and am excited to get a chance to start working through it and figuring the best ways to build it into our system.
It’s looking like we will have 12 outstanding recruits joining our team in the fall. This is the biggest recruiting class we’ve had a Stevens and will put our roster at about 30 wrestlers. The depth we are starting to create provides a great training environment and will allow us to rest our top guys when they need a break without bringing down the quality of our dual team.
We still have a long way to go to reach our goals but the progress is coming and we all appreciate the support of our local NJ wrestling community!
If any of you are interested, we are also hosting our athletic department’s annual golf fund-raiser on June 24th at Arcola Country Club in Paramus, NJ. You can call/email me if you’d like to play or sponsor a hole!
Sincerely yours,
Mike Clayton
