Finally!!

I’m here!! A couple people have emailed me and asked if I was going to make it to the tourney this year. This is the first time that I’ve been able to and I’ve had plans to make it since November. So yes, I had plans. I left Provo yesterday at 6:00 PM MST. Thanks to Wyoming weather and road closures, I didn’t get to Omaha until just now. The weather shut down a 100 mile stretch of I-80, so here’s the route we had to take.

Worst. Drive. Ever. That’s right. State highways at 3 in the morning up to Casper and then back down. Well, the good thing is my photographer and I are both safe, the fourth session starts in just under an hour and a half and the bad news is my photographer is asleep as I write this… We’ll be there tonight. Look for pics on the FaceBook page tonight along with some more blog posts!! (These ones about wrestling, not random travels…)

About Jon

I started wrestling my freshman year of high school in 2000 in Northern California. My first match lasted about 16 seconds and ended with me on my back. I am proud to say that my second one lasted a bit longer, but sad to report that it ended the same way. That year was my hardest year. I lost every match except for one. My sophomore year I threw out my back and couldn’t wrestle but I still showed up to practice nearly every day and became the general “mat monkey.” Junior year I was back. This was the year that I suffered most of my injuries. I broke fingers, cracked ribs and dislocated both my shoulders at the same time. It was also the best record I had.
