Hello,
My trip to Kauai was great! You haven’t really seen true beauty until you have experienced the Island of Kauai. I was greeted with a warm welcome from the coach and some of the wrestlers. The clinic went really well. I did two sessions a day and between sessions I tried to see as much of the island as possible. Saturday they had a small Greco tournament with freestyle on Sunday. I watched the tournament and was very excited because the kids were working the moves I showed. Brandon Slay came in on Saturday and did a clinic so I got an opportunity to meet him. He is a great speaker and a wonderful person. He showed his powerful double leg and I was amazed. Well, I just want to say thanks to West side wrestling club and coach Mack for the trip to Kauai. I will post some pictures soon so check them out.Will

World Team Trials
Hello,
I’m just giving you all an update on how I did at the World Team Trials. The bracket wasn’t as competitive as usual with some good guys missing the tournament. I felt great going into the tournament and was very positive. I finished off with a second place finish in the mini tournament and later won a true third match to seal the deal for national team. I know this is a big accomplishment considering I only been on the mat for 4 months after a full year off and a serious surgery. Me being my biggest critic could only see how many mistakes and things I could have done better to be excited about taking third. I am really looking forward to the up and coming season to be able to start from scratch and build through out the year. I would like to thank the guys from the OEC for having me back up there before trials to train. It really was super beneficial to me and I am going to try and implement a lot more visits to the OEC in my training. I also would like to thank all my coaches, family and friends who have supported me through this rough year. Congratulations to the ones who made the World Team, wishing you the best of luck! My plan for the summer is to train and hit the weights as much as possible. Thanks for reading. willie
