Here are our 2 studs all ready for the Regionals!
Britton found out there were only 2 boys in his weight class...and he was one of them! haha. He was only to wrestle one match for Championship...and this boy he had pinned in one of his first tourneys in 30 seconds....so....we knew it wouldnt even be a match. Troy told him to not go and pin him right away, to try some moves on him....
But he didnt listen and pinned him in 31 seconds....He said it was too hard since the kid was too easy to do anything with! haha. Good job Baluba!
And he is the winner!
Jalan had 4 kids in his bracket, making him automatically advancing to Sectionals next weekend...the top 4 go. Jalan's first match was against a girl from Mt Vernon. She beat him in the previous tournament. Jalan was pretty confident that he was not gonna let her beat him again! He was sooo great off the start. He was quick and looked so good...but she tied up with him, and got him in the headlock, and before he knew it, she had a takedown with 3 back points. Jalan managed to stay out of being pinned. Look how good he looks in his wrestling stance!
The second period started off good, Jalan was working her good, and got a reversal, but somehow, she got him in the headlock again, and another 5 point takedown and back points.
The third period he was down 11-3. He had gotten a point for her stalling, and she got an escape. We knew he could still pin her...he worked her over really good, but she just stayed on the bottom and stalled, so Jalan couldnt get her in a good position, and ended up losing. Boy was he upset! We knew he could do it, but he just needed to work on finishing the moves..and get some more experience! She has been wrestling for several years, it makes a difference!
Jalan's last match was a boy from Mt Vernon, who had beat Jalan at the previous tourney as well. Jalan can beat him easy, so we were hoping for the best. Jalan took off so great, and did a nice cross face to rough up the kid right off the bat...but...it went downhill from there.

Jalan could beat this kid, but he was sloppy and didnt finish his moves that Troy has been teaching him, but he will beat him next time! He ended up pinning Jalan in a freak move...Jalan was VERY upset, and couldnt stop crying, much to his dads dismay! Poor kid. the little punk boy always goes up to Jalan and trash talks him after, and it makes me so mad!! We cant wait for the day that Jalan whips his butt, which will happen soon!!
Here is our Regional Champion!! He just had to go stand on the podium for a picture!
Jalan, again not thrilled with his medal, or with mom taking a picture so close to his losing his match..
We are so proud of our boys, they are awesome wrestlers!!
