First, EW would like to send Christmas greetings and the wish for a happy new year to everyone. Thanks for using the site to keep updated on wrestling news of interest to eastern fans. As you may know, the purpose for starting the EW site is to promote wrestling in the eastern US in general, and specifically to be a vehicle for helping to support the Women's Wrestling Project. We would like to build our readership and viewer stats to be able to encourage advertisers to place ads on our site. All the proceeds from our site will be used to directly support ATHLETES - young girls and women who are training seriously for wrestling. More specifically, we want to make wrestling in PA and the surrouning states the center of international wrestling excellence - as evidence by eastern women earning medals and championships and the world and Olympic levels. As a result, we believe that what we learn form developing the women's side will provide more infformation for success on the men's side as well. With the women, we have a great opportunity to start closer to the begining of the process of athlete development, without repeating some methods or concepts are aren't productive, and developing those that are. You can help us by 1.) using the site frequently; 2.) recommending it to others; 3.) forewarding our link or linking your site to ours; 4.) subscribing to EW; 5.) visiting the Women's Wrestling Project site and repating the steps above; 2.) telling other coaches about EWand the Women's Wrestling Project. If you subscribe to, or contact us, we will not sell your email or contact information, or share it in any way with anyone. It will only be used to keep you informed of wrestling news and events, including the Women's Wrestling Project. At EW we believe that the eastern US should be the center of excellence in the world for both men's and women's wrestling. We have the athletes, coaches, and infrastructure, but we must be purposeful. I believe starting with a focus on the womne's side will pay tremendous dividends for our sport in many ways. Most important, though is this - women want to wrestle, do it for the same reasons, and are willing to to work just as hard as any other wrestlers (which is saying a lot) - it's the right thing to do for your sisters, daughters, and other females that are important in your life and will benefit from what wrestling has to offer. Also send us your thoughts regarding what content is most interesting to you (see the survey on the upper left side on the EW home page)Thanks, and stay with us over the holidays and through out the year. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Oklahoma State claims five titles to win Reno Tournament of Champions, followed by Wyoming

2011-12-19T10:29:00.004-05:00

Roger Moore Special to TheMat.com
12/18/2011

RENO, Nev. – After a year off from the Reno Tournament of Champions, Oklahoma State returned to stake its claim inside the Reno Events Center – and a pair of Bulgarians.

The second-ranked Cowboys crowned five champions with Jon Morrison (125), Jordan Oliver (133), Jamal Parks (149), Chris Perry (184) and Blake Rosholt (197). Rosholt wrestling unattached, hammered teammate Cale Byers, 6-0, in the finals.

Wyoming, the 2010 Reno TOC champions, finished second with Oregon State, Binghamton and Michigan State rounding out the top five in the 20-team field. Oklahoma State won the 2009 title by 69 points. The margin in 2011 was 44 ½ after totaling 166 to Wyoming’s 115 ½.

“It was a tough day from the standpoint of matches that were rolling by really quick,” said Oklahoma State coach John Smith. “There’s a little attitude difference here and I do think we showed some conditioning issues at times. We can improve there. But overall I’m pretty pleased with where we are right now. We can take a lot of positives from today. We won some tough matches.”

#7 Illini Moves Past UT-Chattanooga 30-6

2011-12-19T10:22:00.001-05:00

Dec. 18, 2011

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. - The Illinois wrestling team started their home schedule with a victory as they took down UT-Chattanooga 30-6 to improve to 7-1 on the season. Eight of the ten Illini won their matches, including Jesse Delgado, Daryl Thomas, Eric Terrazas, Guy Kirby, Jackson Morse, Jordan Blanton, Tony Dallago and Mario Gonzalez. Delgado recorded a technical fall and Dallago logged a pin in their respective matches to help boost the Orange and Blue over the Mocs at Huff Hall.

"I thought the guys looked really lethargic," head coach Jim Heffernan said. "They seemed tired and not mentally fresh. However, it was good to be home after a long hard week and it gave a chance for our home crowd to see Delgado and Dallago wrestle. I think Kirby's victory was the highlight of the dual. He did a great job."
