2016-01-31 Little Braves wrestling at Marysville - League Meet #4

Kurt and Luke both wrestled good matches this weekend at our last regular league meet #4 at Marysville.


Luke's Matches
Luke is a step ahead of competition at his age and weight, and he would benefit from more competitive matches.  Luke is executing some new skills riding with legs and turning with tilts.   He also ducked under a couple of head and arm attacks which is spectacular.  Luke also makes his opponent earn every point, and this is very important.



Kurt's Matches

Kurt had really competitive matches again this weekend.  You can tell from teh length of his videos.  Kurt is learning the details necessary to win close matches by scoring at the end of a period and doing mat returns instead of letting his opponent have easy points.  These lessons will pay dividends in tight matches down the road.
