I was up early this morning for another home wrestling match. We go 8 years without a home meet and then have 2 in 3 days. We lost to Coventry but beat Akron North. We look good, but still have plenty of work to do.
After wrestling K and I went to Kent State to see the Golden Flashes in action. The were taking on George Mason. GM went to the Final Four 2 years ago. KSU played them at their place last year and beat them. GM's head coach coached at BGSU when I went to Kent. The band use to heckle him while he coaches.
We got ticket from one of my student's parents. I figured they would be nose bleed seat, but they were really good.

After halftime, K was in the "Dress like a Flash" contest. He had to pedal to center court, put on a jersey top, shorts, and really big shoes and pedal back. He had fun and everyone cheered him and the other boy along.

Kent State went on to defeat GM 73-55. I did see Uncle Gary at the game. He does not like his new seat this year. KSU placed a $500 premium on his court side seat. He told them to stuff it. The Flashes are 8-2 so far this year. If they win 20 games this year, it will be the 10th straight 20+ win seasons.
The Bayou Steelers are the #2 seed in the MNFFL playoffs. This is the first week of the playoffs and the Steelers have a bye.
See you Down by the Bayou.
