We will be having an extra practice tonight at RPA Martial Arts and fitness to get some work against other wrestlers from 7:15 to 9 PM. Address is 8970 103rd St in the strip mall. Your wrestlers should have told you yesterday. We will meet there. Message if you need a ride. This is a great tune up for the tournament in Daytona at the end of the month, and we used this location last summer during Covid. Hope to see you guys there.

Excellent showing for the Oakleaf Jr High wrestling team this past weekend (Jan 16) at the Clay County Wrestling Championships.

We quietly walked into this tournament with four wrestlers who had gone undefeated so far this season. When the dust settled, Oakleaf had 8 wrestlers make it to the championship match in their weight class, 2 champions, and 7 wrestlers make it to the consolation finals (3rd / 4th place match). Below are the 15 placers from this weekend's tournament. Great job all around from all wrestlers.

Next up, the end of the season Northeast Florida Championship on Jan 23 at Suwannee high school. We'd love for you to come out and show support if you can.

Excellent turnout for the 2nd Annual Oakleaf Holiday Minicamp last Saturday, Dec 26. For 6 hours, these wrestlers got a lot of learning, fine tuning, and live action.

Thanks goes out to Coach Bess and Coach Franklin for putting on the camp. Also, thanks to the Moore family, Mr Vukota, and Mr Hemphill for handling the grill and additional sides and drinks again during the lunch break.

Don't forget practice continues this week, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 5-7 in the high school wrestling room. All Oakleaf wrestlers are welcome to come out, not just the middle school.

Great week on the mat for this young Yellow jackets team. Three wrestlers went undefeated and took first place at the Lake City Falcon Invitational (congrats Sebastian, Jacob, and Jeremiah), and a 66-35 victory over Lakeside Jr High.

Tonight we battle Lake Asbury Jr High at the hive. Come out and support Oakleaf at the first home match of the year. Wrestling starts at 5:30. See you then!
