The tri-meet with Cosby and LC Bird has been moved to January 26, 2010. Please update your calendars…
Due to the unfortunate closure of Hops restaurant, we will be forced to move the Coaches social to Tripps restaurant on Midlothian Turnpike. The social will begin at 8pm.
We will be discussing the upcoming James River Duals (January8-9, 2010) tournament. We could really use a lot of support for this event and I encourage all of you to attend this planning session…
The coaches social originally planned for this evening has been cancelled. The next social will be held on January 5, 2010 and is very important. We will be discussing the upcoming James River Duals and assigning workers.
Due to the weather and school closings, there will not be practice on Monday, December 21st. We will practice from 2pm- 4pm on Tuesday December 22nd, prior to the Old Boys match and the Holiday social.
Due to the condition of the parking lot and sidewalks at JRHS, we need to reschedule the social for Tuesday, December 22nd (same time.) 5pm Old Boys Match; 6pm Holiday Social. Please plan to attend starting at 5pm to see a great wrestling tradition.
Due to the expected storm, the Lee Davis tournament this weekend has been postponed until 12/29-30/2009. We will be practicing from 12-1:30pm today.
The Beast of the East tournament will still be held and is expected to run on schedule.
The Hopewell Invitational this weekend proved to be every bit as tough as expected. Congratulations to Jordan O’Donnel for his third place finish. In addition to Jordan, we had several other place winners in Brayden Manchester (4th), Andy Svanda (4th), Jordan Dibich (6th), and Josh wells (6th). We also need to send out a big congratulations to Cameron O’Donnell who won his first Varsity match this weekend! Congratulations guys!
Due to travel constraints this weekend, wrestlers will need to arrange their own transportation to (and from) the Arther Ashe center! Wrestlers will need to report to weigh-ins on Friday NO LATER than 2:45pm and Saturday NO LATER than 7:45am.
There will be bus transportation for the Sub-varsity tournament at Colonial Heights…
For the past few years we have been fortunate enough to be able to “break bread” together and socialize as a team at Hops Restaurant during the wrestling season. Anyone who is a fan of James River Wrestling is welcome to attend (parents are encouraged…) and enjoy fellowship with the coaches and parents of the team.
Dates and times may be found at the following:

Hope to see you all there!
Good luck to all of the guys who will be wrestling in the next couple days!
The JV guys will be going to Varina on Thursday, good luck and go get ‘em!
The Varsity team will be heading to Hopewell this weekend. We are planning a “lock-in” for the varsity guys on Friday night (since we will be home late and leaving early the next day). If any of JV guys are interested in going to see some of the action they may ride the bus on Saturday. This year’s tournament will feature some much tougher competition and a host of new teams. Should be interesting!
