match he defeated 2x All-American Alaino Djoumessi who competed at

our young men represented UWL very well.

We had our first annual golf outing this past
weekend and it was a blast, we only had 21 golfers, but it was great
to see some of the alumni and parents compete for the prestigious
title of “UWL Golf Champ”. We will have this tournament every year
and we are setting the date as the first weekend in June every year.
More later.

Coaching changes. Jason Lulloff and Josh Passe will

graduated from Coe College and was their varsity 125# wrestler. He
will be attending graduate school. Also joining us is Tony Beardsley

This summer we have 15 guys staying to workout and
work in the community. The dedication and changes are going on here
