Kurt was entered in only the Freestyle tournament. His freestyle coach encouraged him to enter the Greco Roman tournament too to get more mat time. So, with 5 minutes of instruction on rules and some technique, Kurt was all set to tackle Olympic style of wrestling. You have to love his character, trying two new styles of wrestling that he barely practices, had fun doing it, and never lost his smile.
Kurt did not win a match today, but he had fun trying something new. He wrestled 4 matches in one hour, and then we were on our way home. Luke sat this one out.
On the way home, we stopped by Ford Street in Perrysburg on the Maumee river to check out the world famous walleye run. We saw lots of fishermen with limits of walleye, and Kurt was mad that we did not bring a fishing pole.
Next stop was Fort Meigs in Perrysburg to take in a history lesson that dovetailed with Kurt's class work. This was the first time I had walked through the fort and took in the history of this fort and its significance of the War of 1812.
Totally could not have asked for a better day. Tomorrow, Kurt has a double header in lacrosse, so look for another post soon.
Here is video from today.
