    I never have but I have endlessly, endlessly heard about wrestling from our pastor, one Jim Putman. (yeah..I just outed myself as a lifer…please, oh, please let this comment not attract that babe that fills inland northwest comment boxes with her own personal vendetta against RLM…)

    Liz, must have to say that the lifers run the best kids wrestling program around.

    My grandfather took me to see an NIC wrestling tournament back in 1972.I can’t recall one cardinal losing a match.Back then they completely dominated their opponents.

    One of our best friends are grandparents to the Rosholt boys, wrestlers who started in Sandpoint and then moved to Ok.
    3 of them have done well in college wrestling and 1 in high school. 3 State Champs as well as National Champs. Now Jake is in Extreme sports. We watch from time to time on television.
    Grandparents winter in Ok so they can go to all of the contests.

    Cabbage boy…I tried to get my son interested but to no avail…I would MUCH rather have him wrestling other boys in competition than pounding on his sister….LOL.
    I did sign him up for soccer today though.
