Mandatory Volunteers!! - Western States
How's that for an oxymoron?! I know that everyone, or at least the majority of us, is aware that Western States is a major fundraiser for the Clovis Wrestling Program. We ALL need to step up and help this weekend...Friday night AND all day Saturday. Our greatest need is in the snack bar on Saturday. We need people helping (in shifts) from 7:00 am until approximately 5:00 pm. I have spoken to a few of you but I haven't been able to reach the majority of you for a number of reasons...no voicemail, your # has changed, I don't have your #, or you're dodging me. :-) We had tremendous support during the Doc Buchanan Tournament and I believe that no one was "stuck" for hours in the Snack Bar. If we ALL "chip in", it makes it easier on all of us. Please call me at 260-5092 and let me know what 3-hour shift you would like to work. I am working at Clovis High School right now so if I am in class and I don't answer the phone, leave a message. Thank You!! Kerri Nevills
Shift Times: 7am - 10am, 10am - 1pm, 1pm-4pm, 4pm-6pm (closing/cleaning up)

The End of Another Journey
Well said. There's NOTHING like the State Tournament. Nothing will open your eyes to the possibilities of what wrestling can be, or what you can become, like BEING THERE!
Hope to see all the Cougars and Cougar fans there supporting our boys on the chance to do it all over again.
IX...the time has come ;)

Time has Come!
The time is drawing near!! Practices are winding down,,,, clothes are being packed,,,, nerves are starting to surface.... I know you guys are ready!!! You have put in a lot of sweat,, some tears., a lot of victories... they tried to shake you guys up before the season started but a certain Coach and his assistants stepped up to the plate when you needed them the most! They have guided you thru this journey to become a state qualifier,,, some if not all will become a state placer,, a few others may come home as a state champion... all with hopes of bringing home another Team Title!!
Win or lose ,.. Mama Mc is so very proud of all of you! You have become a TEAM and a team with a mission!! Now... go have some fun and kick some booty!!
I would encourage all the wrestlers and families to try and make it down for at least Saturday! Nothing will motivate them more than watching the state finals!! Just purchase the CHEAP tickets as we sit "alone" in the rafters!! We have grown so close and this is our family!!

Clovis Wins 2009 CS Masters Championship!
Here is a Blog entry from Zach Ewing found at http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/zewing
It's always nice when the team title comes down to the heavyweight match, and that's what we had here. If Buchanan's Kyle Papendorf can beat Lemoore's Loren Baize, as he did last week, the Bears edge past Clovis. If Baize wins, the Cougars win. Think they're rooting for the guy in purple a little bit? After a scoreless first period, Baize gets a second-period escape for a 1-0 lead. Front headlock locked up for Baize, but Papendorf wiggles out of bounds. Papendorf briefly had a single-leg, but Baize backs out. No takedowns in the second period, either. Now Papendorf on bottom. Baize is doing a fine riding job here in the third period. One minute to go. Twice Papendorf has been on his feet but Baize has taken him back down both times. Out of bounds with 40 ticks left. No stalling warnings, so Papendorf really needs to get out. Baize is a big fella, though, and it's not easy. Can he indirectly clinch Clovis the team title? It sure looks like it. Papendorf is in trouble, and that's it. 1-0 for Loren Baize of Lemoore, and a 1.5-point team victory for Clovis.
