For those that haven't heard Tristan Ballinger who wrestles for OC high school has suffered head trauma in a freak accident. Currently he is in ICU progressing slowly.

Tristan has been wrestling since third grade, he's represented KY at the middle nationals in Danville Illinois. Recently he competed in the All Star classic tournament winning the 110 weight class. This young man has done a great job representing our state. 

Now he and his family need our help. I've received several calls from coaches asking how they can help.

Well this is it the proceeds from tournament will help the family greatly for a long road ahead. 

Please get as many wrestlers as you can to this event.  Elementary/ Middle School

Coaches,

This is not a takedown tournament.  I have received many questions about that.  Although that was the plan originally, we thought wrestlers and coaches would prefer a regular event.  In my haste to get this information out, I didn't think to change the name on the flyer.  For those youth coaches that have attended our youth tournament in the past, nothing has really changed in the format of this event other than adding the middle school level in the afternoon and that all proceeds will be going back to the Ballinger family.  For coaches looking to enter their wrestlers, please use the following excel sheet and email your entries to Tyler Baines.  This needs to be done prior to Sunday so that pools can be created ahead of time and we can get started on time.  Entry fees can be turned in the morning of the event.

Thanks,

Coach Riordan
