Five team members attended A take down clinic with
Rob Hermann the 1996 Head Coach for the U.S. Olympic
Greco Coach. David Mason, Ron Buffano, Travis
Cochran, Dan Mattlan, and Joe Dinzeo learned a lot of new skills during the 6 hour clinic.
Gateway High hosted the event with coach Chip
Lowery providing a quility site though his vidio
equipment could use a little updating.
The event drew 90 wrestlers last year but only 29 this year. Better for those who where there as coach Hermann was able to give each a lot of attention.
Mason may have gotten more attention than he wanted
as he served as coaches dummy for most of the
session.
