2015 Russ Hellickson League Championship

This year, the Russ Hellickson Youth Wrestling League Championship only had one representative from the Mokros family.  Kurt got really sick the night before and day of the event, so he had to sit this one out.  Luke said he wanted to win this for both of the brothers.  Emily stayed home with Kurt, so we are short on video, but Luke won all three matches.   The match below is the championship match.  Kurt was really proud of his brother, and Emily are proud of the brothers camaraderie.  Thanks to all the Little Braves that sent good wishes to Kurt.

Snowboarding and GoPro

With momma bear out of town, we went snowboarding at nearby Alum Creek.  Today, we took the GoPro for its maiden voyage and it worked out nicely.  Thanks Luke for taking most of the video.

2015 Russ Hellickson League Meet #4

Yesterday's league meet was a make-up for the previous week when we cancelled due to weather conditions.

This league meet was hosted at Marysville.

This match did not get recorded, but Luke got a couple of hard earned take downs against an opponent from Upper Arlington.  Extended his lead with near fall, and escape from bottom before pinning in the third period for the win.

Worthington Kilbourne open wrestling tournament

Luke wrestled in the 5 and 6 year old division and 42 lb weight class.  In this tournament, the goal we set for this practice was to get a takedown while shooting to his right.  See if you can see where he shoots right.



Kurt said his funnest matches today were the first and last.  In the last match, he was proud of the fact that he spent so much time on his back, but did not get pinned.
