Go Green's Notes from Post- RECAP

Go Green's Notes from Post- RECAP

Hey guys,

First things first.  I want to invite all of you to our Gala Weekend in May to celebrate the accomplishments of this team.  It has been a great season, and we hope you can attend.  This event is also a major fundraiser for us, so if you can't make it, please consider a gift.  The "Buy a Round at the Zulu" was the most selected option last year.

It is always important to reflect on things and celebrate your victories, even when you don't reach your ultimate goal.  We will be telling the guys exactly that.  Think of some of your successes and be happy that you had the opportunity to engage in them this season.

Here are some things I am proud that we accomplished:

22-10 win in the STAR match, in front of the largest crowd in Army Wrestling history.

7 out of the last 11 over navy.

A historic team title at the Southern Scuffle.

Back-to-back team trophies at the EIWA.

Seven NCAA qualifiers.

Two of the biggest NCAA upsets in the first round in Philly.

But, maybe more important than all of those- I will be celebrating the community building we have engaged in, and the continued success we have had constructing an eco-system around these future officers.  We truly appreciate that.  Huge crowds in Christl and on the road.  Another jam-packed NCAA social.  The opportunity to meet so many of you on the road.  Walking into any wrestling room in the country and seeing an Army Wrestling shirt is one of the greatest thrills of my life.  Keep those well wishes and emails coming, I love sharing them with the team!

We are working.  And it is working!

We get a little better every year.  And with 8 returning NCAA qualifiers, I am extremely excited about the future of Army West Point Wrestling.

And you should be too!
