the motel to Toledo HS for the start of competition. If you are a parent providing transportation to wrestlers other than your own child, you
will need to fill out the necessary insurance paper work at YCHS prior to Friday 2-13. Even if you have previously
filled out the paper work during the Oregon Classics tourney, you will need to resubmit new paperwork with the appropriate

a license). If you are a parent of a district wrestler and your wrestler will be riding with somebody other than

child. If this all sounds confusing just give our A.D a call and he can explain.

Parents of
district wrestlers had a brief meeting following tonights meet to discuss lodging for the district wrestlers going to

help by sorting your bottles and cans to make it easier to package for return. For instance seperate Safeway Select

A special
thank you needs to go out to our YCHS Superintendent, Principle and AD for making this trip come together given
the circumstances. The extra effort on your part was really appreciated by all of the wrestlers and parents!
YC wrestlers
made it over to Redmond and back safely for the Oregon Classics. Thanks go out to Coach Klein, the Kings,
the Sittons, the Hoens and the Bowsers for driving the wrestlers over. Special thanks also go to
Becky Alfsen for making the trip and doing a great job as usual with keeping Stats .We could not have done it without you!
This tournament
normally has the largest amateur participation in the USA. Due to the weather situation this year there was a reduced
field of participants. However this did not reduce everybodies excitement for this great event. The organizers
of this event put on a great tournament.
There were
sixteen 3A schools in this years tournament. YC tigers first opponents were the "Outlaws" of Sisters. Yamhill
defeated the Outlaws 50-27. Next up were the Estacada Rangers. The Rangers were the number 1 seeds in this tourney.
The match of this dual had to be Blake Sitton(YC) and Marc Doran(Rangers). Blake is ranked 5th and Marc is
ranked 1st. Blake wrestled an excellent match but was unable to come away with a win after 3 tough rounds. The Tigers
struggled at all the lower weights against them coming away with a loss. Next up were the "Cheesemakers" from Tillamook. This
was one of the great come back dual meets in the YC wrestling programs history. The Tigers were
down 39-6 entering into the 152 pound match. YC's 152lb Russell McQuary got YC fired up with a pin.
This made the score 39-12. YC needed to pin the next 5 "Cheesemakers" to win and that is exactly what YC's Tigers
did. Keith Martin at 160lb won by fall. Blake Sitton at 171 won by Forfeit. Ryan Hoen at 189 won
by a Fall. Ryan Boyd at 215 won by a Fall and then big Kyle Bowser 275 did not disapoint and topped it all
off with another Fall at 275. YC pulled out the upset with a 42-39 win over Tillamook. YC had reason to celebrate
since this was the first time in the schools history to defeat the wrestling Cheesemakers of Tillamook. Great job YC
wrestlers. Word is out that Rodney will be buying some wrestlers Milkshakes with this win.
The win over the "Cheesemakers" put YC into the 5th-6th bracket where our next opponent were the Banks Braves. It started
out great with DJ Fair getting a first round fall but then the Tigers ran into a wall. Ryan Hoen's match against
the #1 3A 189lb Frank Ewing was the match up to watch. Ryan whos ranked 10th wrestled a great match but was not
able to hold on for the win. Kyle Bowser got yet another Fall against Banks. Final Score I belive was Banks 50
-YC 12? Next up is Philomath, Central and then it's off to Seaside for the Pac Rim Tourney.
