Bago Boyz Beat #1 Scotus for District Championship!

Bago Bits…

The Hauff Mid-America Sports/Great
Plains Athletic Conference Women’s Basketball All-Conference Teams for 2016-17
have been announced and a College of
Saint Mary student-athlete has been
recognized. Pilar Aldrich a Senior from
Winnebago, has been named All-GPAC
Honorable Mention. It’s the second year
in a row that Aldrich has earned the
honor.

Can anyone tell me what this is a picture
of? First one to tell me wins a prize.

The Winnebago Indians Boys Basketball team, AKA, Bago Boyz took the #1 Nebraska Class C-1 rated Columbus Scotus Shamrocks out
back, to the wood shed last Monday night, and handed the 23-1 Shamrocks a big fat “L”, with some commod cheese on it. 65-50.
The “W” guaranteed the Bago Boyz a trip to the State Basketball Tournament and a #1 seed in the tournament bracket. Their first game is
set for 9 am at the Devaney Sports Center on the University of Nebraska Campus, where they will face 21-5 Kearney Catholic in first round
action.
We all wish our beloved Indians good luck and wish them the best as they once again represent the Winnebago People and all Native Nations across this big Turtle Island…Go Big Blue!!!

Indians Fans Travel from the Cities to represent!

Even Nurse Julie is not immune to the
antics of the WIN Eat Cam.

A contingent of Winnebago Indians Fans recently traveled from the cities to catch a Bago Boyz game at the WHS gym. No, not the Sioux Cities, the TWIN cities. The Indians didn’t disappoint beating GACC 96-53 in their final home game of the season. The Indians travel to Lincoln
this week, and I heard it through the Bago grapevine that our friends, family and relatives will be traveling from the four directions to support the Mighty Indians. GBB!

Another Dusty One for all you Dusties,
guess who the five boys are in this picture and win a prize.

Exactly what is rez ball?
You buckle up and then you cut loose
By James Giago Davies
Native Sun News Today Columnist
nativesunnews.today
When the 35-second shot clock and
the three-point shot were introduced to
South Dakota high school basketball,
rez ball should have taken off like a
rocket. But it really hasn’t.
After watching decades of Lakota ballplayers I have finally decided to define
rez ball as it should be played, a simplified definition compared to game day
coaching strategies, that doesn’t delve
into specifics one column can’t contain.
First off, there is a reason Wasicu

V i s i t

u s

a t

ball clubs don’t rez ball—they can’t.
There will always be Wasicu ballplayers
individually adept at rez ball, but overall,
the plodding post-up nature of East River
barnyard basketball won’t allow for rez
ball playing style.
Lakota should learn disciplined defense, they should learn to play every
style of basketball, but they should never
get away from what they naturally excel
at—running and gunning.
Secondly, Winnebago Head Coach Jeff
Berridge has a saying: “Second chance
points kills teams.”
When played right, rez ball stops
teams from getting second chance points
on defense, and increases the odds of
getting second chance points on offense.
It starts with pressure. If the other
team has a point guard who can bring
the ball up court under intense pressure,
let him spend 32 minutes proving it.
Ask Aspen LaPointe, Winnebago’s point
guard last year, in the LNI championship
game versus defending champion, White
River. He put on a clinic. That means no
dropping back to a half-court offense and
giving the other team a free pass to the
time line. You pressure in-bounds passes
from the first quarter to the fourth quarter. Drive their coach crazy with stress.
More often than not, that will get their
offense rattled. Establishing an offensive
rhythm will not be easy for them. Never
let them get confident or comfortable.
Avoid cheap fouls; don’t let the refs keep
them in the game with free throws.
The inordinate amount of foul calls on
rez teams should convince any sensible
coach that the Wasicu refs will favor the
Wasicu team in a game of contact. This
has been true for over a half century.
Save your fouls for the great plays you
know one of their players will eventually
make. Don’t let him make that breakaway lay-up, that resounding slam dunk.
Foul him and foul him hard. If he repeatedly slices into the paint for an easy
bucket, trip him right at the arc, let him

pick himself up off the floor a couple
of times. It’s worth the foul to deny his
team the flashy play that buoys them
into jonesing after another flashy play.
Rez ball offense means getting the
ball to their basket as quickly as possible, make their big guys sprint. Once
there, drive to the basket if sparsely
defended, always with the option of
dishing off to a wingman for an easy
lay-up. If defended, ring your guys
around their basket and fire the three.
Box-out like your life depended on it.
Odds are, that three will miss, if it does,
respond with a put-back, if it’s there,
and if it’s not, fire the ball back out for
another three.
If your shooters are cold, all the more
reason to fire threes and box-out. Get
those second chance buckets. They
not only score points, they damage the
confidence of the other team. If the defenders challenge your shooters at the
line, bounce pass into your big guy for
a lay-up, or feint pass to a box-out guy
for a short, high percentage jumper.
Always assume the shooter will
miss, that way you’ll commit to boxout, because there is not a game goes
by some coach does not holler at least
once to box-out. Why? It’s that important. Once the shot is in the air, all
five guys become crazed dog offensive
rebounders. But remember—establish
position, otherwise you are just reaching over a defender’s back, and that’s a
cheap foul that defeats your purpose.

In My Opinion
JESUS OUR SAVIOR
because it fosters stability and al- LUTHERAN OUTREACH

Thoughts on Work… by Lance Morgan

lows for us to elect three good people
each year.

2. I think people should be allowed
to run for officer positions. The
Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Treasurer, and
Secretary would be a
separate and distinct election. Each
position would be a 3 -year term and
a paid position. This will allow our
potential leaders to have at least 3
years of predictability. This would
also remove the yearly reorganization process, which can get political
sometimes.

I have had a few conversations
lately about changing the constitution of the tribe. I am not a big
fan of major constitutional reform
generally. I think our system of 9
tribal council members with staggered terms has been a critical reason for our tribe’s success. Only 3
people can change over in one year.
This allows for gradual change and
not some of the wild swings I see at
other tribes where entire councils
can turn over in one election.
If I had a magic wand, I do think
I would make one major change
in our tribe. We have 9 full time
paid tribal council members. The
budget to pay the tribal council
is one of the largest discretionary
line items in the tribal budget. We
have created so many tribal entities
that take on some of the functions
of our community that I am not
sure that we have enough work to
keep 9 tribal council members busy
full time. Also, the characteristics
that get you elected don’t necessarily mean you are the best person
to implement ideas and policies.
However, since we are paying 9
people, we don’t have much money
left over to hire professional policy
implementers.
We have tried various reforms or
experiments before. We didn’t pay
the non-officers two years ago and
it really upset those that weren’t
paid. We also have had some tribal
council members keep their job and
not take a salary. However, the only
reason you would do that generally
is if your other job paid more. Our
effort at paying only the officers a
few years ago had a flaw. The officers change every year and you
wouldn’t know from year to year if
you had a paying job, which would
impact who could run for office because you have to feed your family.
I think we should not experiment
and just make a change that combines a few of the above features. I
believe we should do the following:
1. We should keep electing 3 people
every year. This is a good thing

3. I think the other five members
should be at-large positions and
should not be full time paid positions. They could get a decent
meeting stipend for 2 or 3 meetings
a month.
This approach would have a lot of
benefits, including:
1. Maintains the staggered terms.
2. Allows for long term continuity
for our leadership positions
3. Saves a lot of money by only having the officers be paid full time.
4. The money saved could be used
to hire more project and policy
implementers.
5. It would open up the at-large
positions to a larger group of people.
Under the current system if you
are a high-income earner or highly
educated then you are reluctant
to take a major pay cut to run for
office because you have to support
your family.
Under the proposed system, you
could run for one of the higher paying officer positions and have three
years of predictable income or you
run as an at-large representative,
could keep your current job and
could just bring your knowledge
and experience to the meeting a few
times a month to help make major
decisions.
I don’t believe we really need 9
full time people and we really can’t
afford it. The City of Sioux City
doesn’t have any of their city council
members as full time employees.
They all just come to the regular
and special meetings. They rely
on professional staff to implement
their actions.
What I am proposing isn’t completely new. For most of our modern
history, the tribal council wasn’t
paid. What I am proposing is that
we adapt our system to a hybrid of
the old and current system in order
to get more people involved in tribal
government, save some money and
likely get more stuff done in our
community.

“Christian = Bird Feed?”
There are times when Almighty God
appears to be so weak. If God was all
powerful why does He allow evil to appear to have full reign in the world? If
God is so great why do wicked people
abuse and terrorize the widow and the
helpless? Why do even strong warriors
shake in their boots? And why are those
who worship Him so often taken advantage of, mocked and ridiculed?
There is a story in God’s Sacred Word
where God in His way draws a line in
the sand and then He lowers the boom!
He allows the Evil One and his wayward
minions to go so far and no further.
Such was the case of a bully who towered over 9 feet tall.
For forty days, day and night this Philistine neighborhood bully challenged
anyone of the warriors of the tribe of
Israel; God’s chosen people, to a oneon-one fight to the finish. The winner
and his side would enslave the losers.
The bully had the gall to curse the God
of Israel, in other words, Creator God.
For forty days the tribe of Israel lived
in fear. They were completely demoralized and were unable to even say a word
in response or on behalf of their God.
And then a young man named David
heard the taunts of this bully and took
up the challenge. This young man, took
up his shepherd’s staff, picked out five
smooth stones and armed himself with
a sling. He approached this giant of a
man.
And the Philistine said to David,
“Am I a dog, that you come to me with
sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David
by his gods. The Philistine said to David,
“Come to me, and I will give your flesh
to the birds of the air and to the beasts
of the field.” [1st Samuel 17:43-44 ESV]
This was shaping up to be a spiritual
battle.
The Philistine predicted that David
would soon become bird feed. How
would David respond? He did not respond with this quip: ‘If you can’t say
anything nice, then don’t say anything
at all.’

Patty Sue Decora

Patricia Cerda Decora (Patty Sue),
68, of Minneapolis MN, passed away
on February 14, 2017.
Visitation was held at the HoChunk center starting February 15.
The funeral services were held February 17 at the Ho-Chunk Center in
Winnebago NE. Burial followed the

“Broad Casting – Radio and TV”
Every since I an remember, when
some finished High School, they decided to take a year off from school.
After that year they’ll go sign up for
trade school.
For a lot of them that one year
turned out to be 50 or 60 years. They
never did go back to school.
I very seldom see Indians working
in broadcasting and television. Over at
Northeast Community College, Northeastern they have “Broadcasting-Radio
and TV” program. Check the catalog
and see the course descriptions in
the program. Can you handle all the
classes in that degree? A lot of reading
and writing is very important. Ask your
teachers for help.
Two Latino TV reporters; J Perez@
kcautv.com and cgrijalva@kcautv.com
you could ask them for advice.
Some people do not go to school.
They live off their good looks. For some
it works. It did not work for me I damn
near starved to death. Just kidding.

Nebraska.

David responded with very similar
words, however his words bore the
Name of God: Then David said to
the Philistine, “You come to me with
a sword and with a spear and with a
javelin, but I come to you in the name
of the Lord of hosts, the God of the
armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the Lord will deliver you
into my hand, and I will strike you
down and cut off your head. And I will
give the dead bodies of the host of the
Philistines this day to the birds of the
air and to the wild beasts of the earth,
that all the earth may know that there
is a God in Israel, and that all this assembly may know that the Lord saves
not with sword and spear. For the battle
is the Lord’s, and he will give you into
our hand.” [1st Samuel 17:45-47 ESV]
Actions speak much louder than
words. And yet, even in the knowledge
of this story, the believer in Christ
is often frozen in fear. A Christian is
sometimes unable to respond to those
who may very well take his or her life,
but knowing full well that the victory
already has been won and assured.
The Philistine was silenced and
had his head removed from his body.
He became bird feed, never to rise
again. From time-to-time Christians
are beheaded, both figuratively and
physically, as they continue to trust in
Him who died at the hands of wicked,
mockers. Jesus not only died, He rose
again never to go down in apparent
defeat again.
Those who die trusting in Jesus will,
like Him, rise victorious to everlasting life! Actions do speak louder than
words of men. The Word of God continues to be preached and proclaimed so
that people all over the earth may know
that the Lord saves in the most unbelievable way. Christians = bird feed,
no way; for we believe in Jesus Christ!

In Loving Memory ...

New Education Director
In November, 2016, I assumed the
position of the Director of Education
for the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska.
As Director of Education, it is my
responsibility for planning, directing
and managing operations of Educare,
the Higher Education Department,
Step-Up Project, and the Summer
Youth Employment Program and ensuring the effective implementation of
education models to meet the highest
standards of excellence.
I have been working in Winnebago
since 2007 when I first accepted a
position as a Licensed Mental Health
Practitioner for St. Augustine Elementary School. I remained there
until 2014 when I began a position
as Education Liaison/Coordinator for
the Educare Winnebago employees
seeking teaching degrees and also
worked as an Independent Contractor for the Tribal Wellness Court for
a period of time.
Prior to coming to Winnebago, I
served twenty plus years as a University Professor including the Texas

Presidential Pets
By: Shyliegh Horn
April 3 1789 George Washington
the first president had a parrot and its
name is Polly. March 4, 1801 Thomas
Jefferson had a couple of pets, the first
one is a mocking bird, and the other
ones are two bear cubs. They were a gift
from Lewis and Clark. March 4, 1825
John Quincy Adams had an alligator
and silk worms. March 4, 1837 Martin
Van Buren had two tiger cubs. March
4, 1857 James Buchanan had an eagle
named Lara and an elephant. March
4, 1861 Abraham Lincoln had a turkey
named Jack. March 4, 1921 Warren
Harding had a pet squirrel named Pete.
august 2, 1923 Calvin Coolidge has a
Pet terrier name “Peter Pan.” He also
had a raccoon named Rebecca. She
walked on leash.
You think that was crazy, on March
4, 1889 Benjamin Harrison had a
pet goat named Whiskers. One of the
presidents even had sheep on the White
House Lawn.
Jack the turkey is President Abraham Lincoln’s pet turkey. The President
had Jack the turkey, two goats named
Nanny and Nanko, ponies, a dog, a cat,
and a white rabbit. I like the turkey and
the two goats because they’re uncommon. Also because their names are cool.
Tad, Lincoln’s son, saved Jack from
being eaten for thanksgiving.

Random Acts of Kindness

Idiom Studies at WPS
Mrs. Finzen abd Mrs. Aman’s 4th
graders has been learning about “idioms” in writing class this month. One
idiom in particular “In Like A Lion and
Out Like A Lamb” is a perfect illustration during this particular time of the
year. The students were asked to respond to an article using the text dependent analysis strategies they have been
studying in writing class. Afterwards an
art activity was completed. The young
scholars you see here enjoyed making
their Lion and Lamb masks as an extension of their idiom studies.

Hainipi-Good Morning!
I know having the “Acts of Kindness Project” was difficult to do during a holiday week. Next year I will
try to take that into consideration.
However, the classes did AMAZING!
I am so proud of every single act of
kindness that was shown.
I had help with a sixth grade class,
tallying the “acts of kindness”. Then
I went through them to make sure
they were legit.
ALTOGETHER WE HAD 283 ACTS
OF KINDNESS!!!!!
The classes were counted and these
are the places:
1st Place: Pfister
2nd (very close): Carnahan
3rd: Tranmer
4th: Aman
5th: Bass

6th TIED: Rohan and Foote
7th: Faulkner
8th: Miltenberger
9th TIED: Finzen and Prewett
10th: Lange
11th TIED: Danielski and Markve

Pets in the White House
by:Haini-Wiragusge
Let’s start off this report with a pet
that will probably not kill you. How I
start by telling youabout my absolute
favorite pet that’s been in the White
House. That pet would be Bill Clinton’s
cat “Socks.” Socks was adopted by Bill
Clinton because Socks jumped into
Chelsea Clinton’s arms when she was
leaving her piano teacher. Clinton was
President from 1993 to 2001.
The next pet that was interesting to
me was Abraham Lincoln’s cat Tabby.
Lincoln’s cat Tabby was the first cat
to live in the White House. Tabby got
special treatment. For example, Lincoln fed him with a gold fork. “Lucky
cat!” Lincoln was President from 1861
to 1865.
This pet didn’t really interest me but
it’s sort of cool. This pet belonged to
John Quincy Adams it was an alliga-

tor. I have absolutely no idea why the
heck he got an alligator for a pet. For
some reason he kept it in the bathtub
on the east side of the White House.
Adams was president from 1825 to
1829.
Next I have very and I mean very
strange pets. The President that had
these very strange pets was Calvin
Coolidge. Calvin Coolidge had a donkey, six dogs, wallaby, bobcat, cat,
goose, two lion cubs, antelope and the
strangest one that he had was a hippopotamus.
In conclusion, those were some of
the very strange pets that our Presidents had.

The 2016-17 Wrestling season was
one for the record books. In only the
2nd year of existence the team shattered all records from the year before
and all expectations from the coaching
staff. The team was led by a core of
2nd year kids that kept everyone in line
and pushed each other in the practice
room. We started the year with a huge
number 26 wrestlers on the squad
and that number started to drop as
the year went on. We ended the year
with 15 great young men and women.
This years squad had Freshman Robbie Lovejoy, who broke the Freshman
record for Varsity wins (11) going
11-22 and has the season records for
most 3pt nearfalls (7), and total near
falls (10), also he has scored the most
points in a match with 16 . Robbie
had a great year and has the chance
to become one of the best wrestlers to
come out of Winnebago if he hits the
weights and does off-season wrestling.
Ricky Suarez wrestled at 220 this year
and worked hard but could not crack
the varsity lineup so he was JV this
season. He had a 2-18 record. This
summer Ricky plans to hit the weights
hard and be challenging for a varsity
spot next season. A late addition to the
team was Sebastian Armell a transfer
in so he could not compete at the Varsity level even though there was no
one at the weight class. He wrestled
JV for the last few tournaments and
came so close to getting a win but
couldn’t get it finished and would end
the season 0-5. Sebastian has a great
work ethic and is very coachable so the
future is bright for this young man.
The Sophomore class has alot to do
with the success of this program and
proved they were some of the best in
the area. Jaylen Harden battled injury
this season and was limited in practice
and competitions at 285 but ended
with a 6-13 record as a JV wrestler. If
Jaylen works hard this off-season he
will be tough next year. Jeremy Bear
decided he wanted to give wrestling a
try this season and had some success
for a first year wrestler. He went 10-16
at 126 and had alot of close matches
that could have got that record even
better. Jeremy has alot of potential and
with more mat time and working hard
this summer he will be one of the top
returning boys on the team.
Jamisen WolfLeader was the 132
pounder this season and showed
coaches that he is turning the corner
to become really good next season.
Jamisen went 10-22 this season and
some of his matches were at 138. At
districts Jamisen wrestled his best offensive match of the year against the
eventual State Qualifier Vergara of
Wayne. Jamisen worked hard for takedowns and was always creating opportunities to score but would just come
up short. Jamisen is one of the leaders
on the team and the next two years to
show everyone what he has. Prosper
Gilpin ended the season at 220 with a
13-4 record and would come up short
in the “heartbreak” round of districts.
Prosper struggled all year getting to
220 but once he dedicated himself he
got there. As a JV wrestler for half of
the season he compiled a 13-4 record
with his only losses to State Qualifiers
Shumaker of Louisville and Willis from
Ralston he also and two losses to
Derrell our own varsity 285. Prosper
came into the B-3 District with a 12-2
record getting the #1 seed. He didn’t
wrestle well in the Semi-finals and
had to beat returning state qualifier
Reyes from Wayne to punch his ticket.
Just a few mistakes kept Prosper from
beating Reyes and we lost the match
9-1. This was a real hard match to
lose cause Prosper had opportunities
to take the lead but didn’t finish and
ended up on the short end. Prosper
has dedicated himself to becoming a
better wrestler in the off-season and
lifting hard to become stronger which
will benefit him greatly. The Junior
class has two boys that work their
tails off and Nick Painter at 182 just
couldn’t make the turn and be where
he wanted at the end of the year but
he made the coaches proud no matter
what. Nick ended the season 9-27 but
improved greatly from a year ago.

There were many matches that
Nick was so close to winning but just
couldn’t finish but we were still so
excited on the improvement we saw
and the potential we see in him. Nick
was LNI Champ at 195 this season
helping the Winnebago team bring
home a 3rd place finish in December.
Derrell Zagurski 285 was Captain this
season. He showed why he was voted
captain by not missing a practice or
a competition all season long earning
the coveted IRONMAN AWARD. Derrell really worked hard last summer
to attain his goal of making it to State
but would just come up short in the
“heartbreak” round. Derrell matched
up against Liels from Auburn and we
took him down in the first period going up 2-0. To start the 2nd Derrell
took a shot didn’t score but was right
back in for another and got in a bad
position which led to getting put on
our back and losing by fall. Derrell
worked so hard this year to get to State
but just didn’t execute like he should
have. Young kids looking to follow
wrestling should look up to Derrell
and we are proud to have him in our
Wrestling Family. Derrell ended the
season with a 42-9 record which is a
school record. He also has the single
season school record for takedowns 47,
pins 33, team points 271, and match
points 127. Derrell showed that hard
work can pay off he earned a medal in
every tournament but two the first at
Conestoga and the one that counted
the most B-3 District meet. Even
though Derrell lost it was still one of
the best seasons by a wrestler in all of
Class B. Only one wrestler had more
wins in Class C at 285. The Senior
class had two boys that have been
here since the beginning and two that
came out this season. Nick Saunsoci
285 was JV 0-6. Nick worked hard in
the practice room and has the heart
of a lion. Brendan Catches 220 was
our lone wrestler from Walthill for the
last 2 season. Brendan didn’t win a
match last season but compiled a 5-11
record this season Varsity and a 4-7
JV record. Brendan challenged the
boys in the room everyday and would
wrestle off every week no matter what.
Brendan is a great kid that has a great
attitude and I will miss him. The two
boys that decided to come out for their
Senior season were Angelo Suarez the
2nd Captain on the team and Josh
Miles. Angelo was our 160 pounder
this season and ended the season 8-7.
The last 3 weeks Angelo could not
wrestle due to injury but came back
right before Districts to try and earn a
spot in the podium. The lack of mat
time and practice for the last 3 weeks
really hurt Angelo and he lost both
matches he wrestled. Angelo is a great
kid and helped coach alot when he was
out. He is helping the Jr. High kids too
and I am glad he is there to help. Josh
ended the season with a 18-22 record
at 152. He could not compete at Districts but had a great season for a kid
that had never wrestled before. I was
very proud of Josh and loved coaching him cause he would do anything
I asked him to do. This Senior class
will be missed and I hope they all come
back to wrestle sometime in the room.
Thank you all for all of your support
it is greatly appreciated. This record
breaking season saw the team win
152 Varsity matches score 907 team
points, score 779 points in matches,
pin 91 competitors in 350 matches.
Next season we plan on breaking all
of those records again. Look out next
season Winnebago Wrestling is going
to “takedown” the competition.

Girls High School Wrestling Boosts
on the the Scene in Winnebago
2016-17 Winnebago Wrestling Season
broke a lot of records but one record that
will never be broke is the FIRST GIRLS
WRESTLING TEAM for Winnebago High
School. Two dedicated, hard working
ladies took to the mat every chance they
could to show everyone they were here
and ready to make a statement. Kiylista
Harden and Zena Davidson battled all
season long against other girls and boys
to earn wins. Both of the girls wrestled
at around 175 all season and were sometimes out matched by pure strength by
some of the boys but it didn’t matter to
them. “These two will always have a
special place in my heart because of the
adversity they battled being the only girls
in some tournaments and not caring at
all who they wrestled they just wanted
to wrestle”, says Coach Tranmer. Zena
Davidson started out the year getting 2
wins at the opening dual meet we had.
The following week she was injured in
wrestle-offs and wasn’t able to compete
again until Jan 21. She came back just
in time from her injury to wrestle in the
final ALL GIRLS meet in Oakland. She
wrestled a girl from West Point and was
very close to winning one of the matches
but just came up short. The really great
thing about her last match was it was
part of Nebraska Wrestling History because it was the first ever Girls Wrestling
match broadcast over the radio. Zena
ended her year 2-7.

Kiylista started the year very shy
and didn’t seem like wrestling was
something she wanted to do but when
she got her first taste of real competition she became a beast. Kiylista
was also part of Nebraska Wrestling
History when she was one of the 13
girls that competed in the first ever
ALL GIRLS HIGH PLAINS Tournament
in Columbus, NE. Kiylista wrestled
twice and showed great improvement
in her second match almost getting a
takedown of the whistle but eventually
losing the match. Kylista would then
have the opportunity to compete for
Winnebago as the Varsity wrestler at
182, which would end her wrestling
season. During warm ups Kiylista hit
a move and dislocated her elbow and
was rushed to the hospital. Her season
would end but she would help the team
score points she ended up 3rd place
earning her first Varsity medal in a
boys tournament. “Kiylista constantly
asks me to let her wrestle despite her
injury which shows me she is becoming
a wrestler at heart and she WANTS to
compete. I really appreciate all the girls
have done to get this going and the fact
that Kiylista is stepping up and helping be Coach Kiylista for the Company
A Scouts (Little Kids Wrestling) really
makes this coach smile. Thanks ladies
for all you have done,” Coach Tranmer.
