Team Study Hall

Last night we embarked on another new mission with this new group of wrestlers. That mission was the first installment of team study hall. We will be meeting for the first month of classes from 7-8 pm for study hall. After the first month we will evaluate the progress of our student wrestlers and see if they have developed enough study habits to handle their studies on their own. The only student wrestlers that are exempt from study hall are sophomores and above who have a 3.0 from the year before. Notice in this blog report that I have used the title Student Wrestlers in reference to our wrestlers. We want to see our wrestlers graduate from this institution with a degree that will have helped prepare them for life. Wrestling is just one part (VERY IMPORTANT PART;-) of their overall education experience. We want to make sure they maintain this perspective when it comes to finishing the course of a college education. This afternoon will be the first of many 5 mile runs along the scenic back roads that lead to the Mississippi! ;-) I will post the top five finish times tomorrow!
