This weekend's AWA Tournament has moved to Sunday.
"Coaches, We have a major adjustment on the AWA Thanksgiving Classic event. It was originally scheduled for this Saturday, but due to the school’s AD double booking the gym for basketball, we’ve been pushed out. The host club and league tried to work with the AD for a solution as well as to check for other venues to host, but unfortunately the only option in the end is for the event to run on Sunday. Normally Sunday is not an option we would ever consider, but as our league is centered around local wrestling opportunities, and the fact that this event is one of our Dan Gable Challenge tournaments for northern area clubs, we’ve decided to go ahead and still run this event on Sunday. The event schedule with 9am and noon session start times remain the same for the AWA Thanksgiving Classic, just on Sunday November 24th. Nothing has changed with the “Wildcat” event in Pueblo, that is still on Saturday. I’m sure I’m going to get asked if kids can wrestle in both events as one is Saturday and the other Sunday and accrue points towards the Dan Gable Challenge, and the answer is yes. If you have questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call or text me. I understand this is the first time in 15 years that we’ve run a regular season event on a Sunday, and it will also be the last."
