Is it me or was Cade King looking much more improved from last season. Granted folkstyle and he had some tough competition in Big12, but I was impressed with how he wrestled this weekend.

Great to see, really not that surprising though, this has a tendency to happen to true freshman that start out of the gate, during the summer they make huge leaps because they can just focus on getting better

There are what? Two or three big-boarders in this group? The jacks have a very good coaching staff that can find guys like Tanner Sloan and Dan Kimball and make them into relevant wrestlers who can make an impact on the national level. Most of these guys didn't place at Fargo in high school and now they're freestyle All-Americans at the junior or U-23 level.

Went down to the event in Omaha. Jacks had quite a few followers attend the tournament. I can say that I did not see one wrestler that did not jump levels from last year. I second the feeling about the coaching staff, they are doing a great job with these guys and I the wrestlers are all in. Going to be a fun year! Scratch that, fun future!

Support the JWC and it's events, because without that we wouldn't see this progress and they wouldn't have the funds to attend.

I thought they all looked good but Cade proved something to me. He is a grinder. Nice to see him compete like he did. As you said that was a tough Big 12 last year.

I remember giving Hahn some crap before one of the duals last year if they were ever going to let Cade wrestle someone not ranked, he smiled and said he easily had the toughest Big 12 schedule of anyone on the team and for a true freshman that is asking a lot, that kid is tough as nails, anyone that is a true freshman and faces the level of competition that he did every week and can still come out with fire and wrestle hard is a very gritty individual
