Good Luck Thomas!! Talk about a well respected name in Southeastern Ohio sports. Thomas' dad Sean was a fine high school wrestler and football player and his grandfather Coach McLaughlin was the father of the Nelsonville-York wrestling program in addition to being the defensive coordinator of N-Y's state championship football team. A legacy to be proud by any standard. I still remember the painting of John Wayne in Coach's office.

Any word on how Thomas did today??

He lost 6-1 wrestled pretty good. Lost to a senior and showed that he needs practice time in the room to rise to the D1 level. I think he wins this match in a month or so. With the injuries and him being out and only 1 week of practice he did OK. He made some dumb mistakes but will learn from them.
Love ya kid. We got this.
