Titan Weekly Update – 4/22/2013

I want to remind everyone that ALL practices will be held at the Albany Academy this week.  The times will remain 6pm – 8pm.  We are training for the USA Wrestling State qualifier on Friday at Columbia HS (flier attached).

This Saturday at 1pm (1-4 at the Albany Academy), we are having a special practice with members of the Cornell University wrestling team.  More details will follow.

If you see any of the boys who competed on the Monster Duals team – please congratulate them.  The team went 6-0 this past Saturday.  Every wrestler put in a great performance. 

·         We had three boys on their first TITAN road trip (Spencer Raymond, Matt Smith, and Jacob Parker).  We couldn’t have won without them. 

·         Our Niskayuna Studs (Garret Davis and Trevor Gibson) came through with big wins and some pins when we needed it most.

·         Two 8th graders filled in as alternates and won six matches between them (Zach Zebrowski and Kyle Jasenski) – the last two middle school wrestlers with that type of performance (Andy and AJ) became NYS FINALISTS.   

Undefeated Wrestlers included: 

102 – Johnny Devine

115 –Nolan Foster

122 –Tristan Canova

128 – Gabe Naviasky

Titans Kids Like Hooters

Some of the young NY Titans took a little trip to Hooters after practice on Thursday.

These wrestlers may be young . . .but they were able to convince their waitress to put on a TITAN singlet!

With wrestlers this dedicated and convincing it is clear that the future of the NY TITANS is STRONG!!!
