Team Duals in this 28 team tournament is always fun and competitive. Noah’s third trip here with the varsity and he finishes 7-1. The Snohomish team finished 2nd overall as well, the best finish they’ve had here.

Noah Match Marysville Pilchuck

Noah and Ryan (MP wrestler) have ran into each other several times over the years. Ryan is a solid wrestler and currently ranked 7th in the state for 3A. They’ve worked together in the same club during this past year.

Noah may have taken advantage of the home mat advantage, if one exists, and got Ryan for the first time, 8-0. Happy day for Noah and more incentive for Ryan on the next meeting.

A few partial matches at this tournament. Noah finished this 3-2 and 5th place. He lost to the same Yelm wrestler twice and pinned those in between. The second time was much better than the first… And, Yelm gets to come back to visit at regionals. looking forward to it.

The final match video I’ll add here if I can get a copy of it from my kid. It was a good match and one I look forward to seeing again later in the year.

First match 2014 and it’s pretty clear Noah’s been practicing in the off season. Time for only one submission tournament and a few weeks submission practice left a lot of time for him to work to improve…. Excited!

Not sure anyone would call this tournament his strongest yet, but he did show some new stuff. This last Spring was his first for ‘club wrestling’ and I think the training with Cliff and the rest of the Relentless crew is showing some benefit.

Not sure if the league is quite ready for the day it all comes together.

Good competition at this tournament. A great fundraiser event for the only collegiate wrestling program in Washington State… Here’s a short clip of Noah’s coolest move and another of one of his wins.

Noah went 7-1 at the NW Duals tournament held in late December in Beaverton Oregon. A couple vids including the furthest below where he lost the one… Not a bad early season showing for the Sophomore year at Snohomish.

Noah Wrestling Catch Up

Sun, 12 Feb 2012 20:34:13 +0000

Alright folks. The first year of highschool wrestling has come to an end for Noah as of last night. For never doing club wrestling and being a freshman, the season was a huge success for him. Undefeated in all JV matches, invited to three Varsity tournaments where he had a better than .500 record (even after getting smoked in his first two varsity rolls).

Ultimately he was invited to participate in Districts where he pulled off 3rd place in the WESCO 4A Varsity Championships and earned a birth to Regionals where the run ended with two losses by a total of 3 points…. Not Bad!

Following is a series of videos from matches from a couple varsity tournaments he participated in. While it would be fun and ego boosting to post all of the JV win videos he had, the varsity competition was more challenging and he’s proud to have done enough to earn his letter for the high school.

Districts and Regions to come in future post. Just a few weeks out from getting back into mma training and jiu jitsu competitions.
