SUMMARY

WELL, IT'S MONDAY NIGHT AND WE ARE BACK HOME.  WE GOT IN TODAY AT AROUND 3:00PM AND WE ARE EXTREMELY DRAINED.  I WANT TO APOLOGIZE TO EVERYONE FOR NOT KEEPING TO SITE UPDATED WITH THE BOYS RESULTS.  THE DAY ENDED UP BEING EXTREMELY HECTIC AND I DIDN'T GET A CHANCE TO UPDATE THE SITE ON THE GO.  IT WAS A GREAT WEEKEND OF WRESTLING AND FUN.  THIS HAD TO BE ONE OF THE BEST TRIPS WE HAVE TAKEN SO FAR.  THERE WAS SO MUCH LAUGHTER GOING ON, IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE.

WE WANT TO THANK SOME PEOPLE AT THIS TIME.  WE WANT TO THANK JAY CIAVARRO FOR BEING ONE OF OUR CHAUFFERS THIS WEEKEND.  IT WAS GREATLY APPRECIATED.  JAY, WE HAD AN INCREDIBLE TIME WITH YOU THIS WEEKEND.  YOU ARE A GREAT GUY AND FATHER AND WE APPRECIATE EVERYTHING YOU HELPED US WITH THIS WEEKEND.

WE WANT TO THANK RON "SASSO" NAUTA FOR JUST BEING RON.  FOR THOSE THAT DO NOT KNOW RON, HE IS THE FATHER OF MAX, ZACHAERY, CAMERON AND LOGAN NAUTA.  RON HAS TO BE ON OF, IF NOT, THE FUNNIEST PEOPLE I HAVE MET IN A LONG TIME.  RON KEPT US LAUGHING THE WHOLE WEEKEND AND KEPT THE MOOD LIGHT.  WITHOUT YOU RON, THE WEEKEND WOULD HAVE BEEN TOO SERIOUS. 

WE WANT TO THANK MARTA GIRALDO, MR. DALCORTIVO, EDGAR GUZMAN, AND RAY BARCZAK FOR SUPPORTING THE BOYS THIS WEEKEND.  RAY, THANKS FOR THE SANDWICHES, I THINK CARLOS AND I WOULD HAVE STARVED IF YOU DIDN'T HOOK US UP.  MARTA, THANK YOU FOR THE PICTURES YOU WERE TAKING OF THE BOYS, THEY LOOKED GREAT AND YOU JUST ADDED TO THE THE SCORPION HISTORY BOOK.  EDGAR THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU.  THERE ISN'T A MORE REAL PERSON WE HAVE MET THAN YOU.  YOU TELL IT LIKE IT IS AND WE APPRECIATE THAT.  MR. DALCORTIVO, THANK YOU ALSO FO YOUR SUPPORT OF THE BOYS AND FOR ALLOWING US TO COACH YOUR SON.  DANNY IS EXTREMELY RESPECTFUL AND A PLEASURE TO BE AROUND.  WE HAVE NEVER SEEN DANNY LAUGH SO MUCH SINCE HE HAS BEEN WITH US.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, WE WANT TO THANK CARL AND JOANNE BIERDUMPFEL.  THANK YOU FOR MAKING THE HOTEL ARRANGEMENTS FOR US, WE DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE NOT PLANNED IT LIKE YOU DID IT WAS PERFECT.  JOANNE THANK YOU FOR OUR  CONVERSATIONS, IT WAS A PLEASURE.

 OMAR

EVERY YEAR, TEAM SCORPION MEMBERS TRAIN HARD, PUT THEIR TIME IN AND OUT OF THE PRACTICE ROOM, IN HOPES THAT COACHES SEE SOMETHING SPECIAL THAT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO TRAVEL THE SCORPION NATIONAL TOUR.  FOR JOSHUA "THE DRAGON" GOBENCION, TALENT, HEART, HARDWORK, AND A NO QUIT ATTITUDE STARTED HIM ON THE TOUR A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO.

THIS YEAR, JOSHUA STARTED OFF THE TOUR WITH A BANG, WINNING THE WOW(WORLD OF WRESTLING) AMARILLO NATIONALS IN AMARILLO, TEXAS THIS PAST WEEKEND.  JOSHUA ALSO SPARKED HIS WAY TO HIS SECOND WORLD OF WRESTLING ALL-STAR TEAM.  WE WANT TO CONGRATULATE JOSHUA "THE DRAGON" GOBENCION FOR THE HARD WORK AND JOB WELL DONE. 

ALSO CRACKING INTO THE SCORPION TOUR WAS ANTHONY RUSSO.  IN HIS SECOND WOW TOURNAMENT, ANTHONY FOUGHT HARD AFTER A SEMI-FINAL LOSS AND CAME BACK TO WRESTLE FOR SECOND PLACE AND WON.  WE ALL KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO WRESTLE AFTER A LOSS AND IT IS A TESTAMENT TO ANTHONY'S WILL, THE WAY HE FOUGHT AND WRESTLED BACK FOR SECOND PLACE. GREAT JOB ANTHONY.

WORLD OF WRESTLING ROLLER PRODUCTIONS IS HOME TO THE ULTIMATE FOLKSTYLE YOUTH WRESTLING AWARD, THE TRINITY.  TO WIN THE TRINITY AWARD, WRESTLERS MUST CLAIM TITLES AT THE BIG 3; KICKOFF CLASSIC, TULSA NATIONALS, AND RENO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS. 

With the start of the season almost near, you High School wrestlers need to start hitting some tournaments.  Some of you went down to Super 32, but not enough of you.  Some of you have entered other tournaments, but not enough.  Although we are proud of everyone's efforts and committment to coming into the room and training hard, please for your sake, get in as many tournaments as you can before the season.  Be prepared, set your goals, and do not turn back now.  If you are having second thoughts, this is the time to back out. 

 The 12th Annual Pre-Season National Championships are being heald at Pleasant Valley High School in Broadheadsville, PA on November 14, 2009.  Please make it a point to get out there to this tough preseason tournament to see where you guy are at this point in the preseason.  Most of you have been going hard all summer, and this would be a good gauge to see what things still need to be corrected. 

 For registration information, click on the headline of this post, it is a link to the registration site for the tournament.  This is also a Team Tournament and we would love to have a solid group out in PA to represent Team Scorpion Wrestling.  If there are any questions about this, feel free to email me at scorpionsinfo@aol.com.

Although the NJ High School season has not started yet, let alone any wrestling season, our boys are starting to open up some eyes on the national scene.  Wrestling USA Magazine, USA's #1 Source for Wrestling, has released it's High School National Rankings for the Best High School wrestler of the upcoming 2009-2010 season by grade.

We are extremely excited and proud to have two wrestlers break into the HS national rankings this year, Perth Amboy Senior, Heriberto Quintana ranked #15 and Queen of Peace Sophmore, Pelal Deeb ranked #8.

Heriberto "Berto" Quintana, broke into his first Best HS Seniors national rankings.  Ranked #15 @ 112lbs, for 2009-2010 HS Seniors, Berto finished off one of, if not, his best high school wrestling season.  Berto finished off his Junior season with Perth Amboy finishing 1st in his district, 2nd in his region and an outstanding 3rd place finish at the NJ State Finals in Atlantic City at 112lbs.  Berto could be returning this season at 112lbs and would be the overall favorite to take the title this year if he does.

Pelal Deeb, although going through one of his toughest years his freshman year, not wrestling many matches, has also broken into the Best Freshman/Sophmores national rankings, #8 @ 140lbs. Pelal broke into the national rankings after participating in the prestigous National High School Coaches Association (NHSCA) Freshman Nationals this past March.  Pelal won the 130lb Freshman National Title and became a High School All-American.

Also breaking into the  Senior national rankings is Queen of Peace wrestler, Jaime Westwood.  Jaime was acknowledged as a Special Mention in the 171lb weight class.  Jaime finished off a great Junior season with the Golden Griffins placing at the NJ State Finals as well placing in the NHSCA Junior Nationals and becoming an NHSCA High School All-American. 

We want to congratulate the boys for their outstanding accomplishments and the hard work that they have put in to be nationally recognized.  Congratulations boys from your second family, Team Scorpion Wrestling.
