2015 NCAA Wrestling Nationals




2015 Wrestling Nationals!

After years of watching wrestling I have become addicted.  I love the sport.  Sean has worked very closely rehabbing the kids this year and that makes it even more personal.  I always look forward to NCAA Wrestling Nationals.  This year they were in St. Louis, here are some pics...




William LOVED seeing Grandma and Grandpa Shaw!  



Wrestling matches all day, can wear a little dude out.... This leads to double thumbing


View from our hotel.  If you ever go to St. Louis... avoid the Crowne Plaza.  However, I would recommend the Hilton down town, everyone was sooo nice!  Bent over backwards to make our stay enjoyable.  





Gooooo..... Hokies!!!!



After 3 days of competing, Virginia Tech had 4 All Americans!  Ty Walls, Nick Brascetta, Zach Epperly and Devin Carter... the picture below is of Nick Brascetta 


Overall we placed 10th in the nation... 

This was Devin Carter's last year wrestling.  I have enjoyed watching him wrestle for the last 5 years, he has incredible determination and strength.  I am sad to see him leave the program but am so excited for what his future will bring to this talented young man.


William has already started training so he will be ready for Wrestling Nationals in 2033 :)


We are looking forward to next year in NYC!!!
