You win, thank God for you club coaches or State would have been terrible!!

Kids have always wrestled jr. wrestling, very few wrestle only 3 months a year unless they are a multi sport athlete.

The point being only recently have club coaches been of Sanderson & Brands quality & it really shows with the amount of college AA's we have now compared to prior years.

Owen - U High
Barnes - Lake Stevens
Freund - Kelso
Mclean- Mead
Feist - Tahoma
& to many more to mention have all had "feeder programs" but reality is when these kids entered HS they matured & improved through the teaching & structure of a great HS program.

Junior programs are & will always be an integral part of developing athletes in any sport but will never replace or supersede a quality HS program.

In a day & age where any 3rd cousin twice removed can get a floor pass to state & consider themselves a coach it has certainly muddied the waters, however even the best "club" coaches will never replace a good HS program & the amount of attention they require is tiring.
