This season the kids all got a little more serious about wrestling. They went to practice twice a week at Kennedy High School with Coach Dad helping out Coach Jay. Dad felt they were ready enough to start dipping their toes in the water of wrestling tournaments. Mom was nervous, but she relented. The kids had such a great season, winning plenty of matches, taking their lumps at times, and everyone took home a first place at least once. We decided to try the California State Freestyle Wrestling Tournament at the beginning of June in Fresno. There was some killer competition there, and the kids wrestled tough. Jack took 6th, Hank took 8th, and Lyla took 2nd. She ended up taking a trip to the ER to get checked out for a possible arm fracture, but she was all clear. It was an overall good experience and everyone is game to try it again next year!
