-  The Dominant Dog is a term that we "borrowed" from Liberty University
-Head wrestling coach, Jesse Castro,  he uses to remind us to be the
-aggressor.  We have -decided to make this a weekly award to the wrestler
-who wrestles aggressively, wins his first match, works hard in practice,
-wrestles well, and shows good character.

                                                  Week One

-   Week one winner in the experienced youth group is Keegan Parrish.  
-Keegan won his group at the JF Tournament by pinning all three of his
-opponents.  He wrestled aggressively, executed some nice takedowns,
-and finished off his opponents with good pinning combinations.  Keegan
-has been working hard in the early season practices and his hard work
-has paid off with a gold medal this past Saturday (Dec. 6).












-Week one winner in the novice youth group is Dalton Whitt.  Dalton is a
-first year wrestler who has learned a lot in a hurry.  He has a natural feel
-for the sport and performed admirably in his debut on the mat.  Dalton  
-took -1st place in our JF tournament by shooting some impressive
-takedowns -for a 1st year wrestler and also executing some nice stand up
-escapes.  -He earned his gold medal by hanging on to beat fellow Forest
-wrestler, Christian Hart, 10 - 7, in a nail biter in which Dalton fought off a
-pinning combination by Christian as time expired!  

                                                       Week Two   







- Week two Dominant Dog is Blake Justis for the experienced youth. Blake
-has taken first place in the first two tournaments.  At Brookville He
-wrestled three very technically sound matches and did not make any
-mistakes that his opponents could take advantage of. Never having trailed
-in any of his matches, Blake executed a text book crossface cradle for a
-pin.










-  The Dominant Dog award for the novice youth goes to first year wrestler
-Brian Crouch.  Brian won his first ever match at Brookville with an exciting
-one point win with a reverse and near fall and was within millimeters of
-getting his first pin. Breaking in as a 6th grader is no easy task since many
-of  his opponents are more experienced. But Brian continues to have a
-great attitude and doesn't let the losses get him down.  He is working hard
-in practice and that will pay off in the long run.
