This Friday at 3pm RPT will be doing physicals for winter sports for $25. Please bring a signed form and $25, they prefer cash. Physicals are required once each school year so if you have one this year for Football or another Fall sport you are good but if not be sure and take advantage of this chance to get a physical for only $25. If you did one last year that will not work for this season, you will need a new one. A portion of the fee goes back to the school in a scholarship.

Looking to wrestle in college?

Allen — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 17:08:30 +0000

Hey if you are considering competing in college there is a meeting you need to be at next week. Wednesday October 26th at 7pm in the auditorium.

Here is the flier:

CopperHills_10.26_Sm

Also for some information here is his e-mail to the coaches.

Dear Coaches,

First I apologize if this is a duplicate email. I am sending a second time as there are indications that the first one didn’t go out. I will also be sending some follow up emails that will contain important information about the event.

As you know, I will be presenting the nationally acclaimed “College Recruiting Simplified”, sponsored by the NFL Players Association and ESPNrise, official partners of NCSA Athletic Recruiting, to the Copper Hills High School athletes and their parents Wednesday night, October 26th at 7:00pm. Art Erickson has reserved the auditorium for this meeting.

I would greatly appreciate it if each of you would inform and remind any student/athlete who plays sports at Copper Hills about this meeting. I have also attached a PDF of the event and hope that each of you can help email this to the parents, especially since there is no school Thursday and Friday. This meeting is for all sports, boys and girls and is open to everyone at all ability levels (in other words, everyone who is on a team) Each athlete will receive recruiting tools, online college search maps and one interview from a national scout to help the families target the right schools. These tools and services are complimentary from NCSA and their partners mentioned above.

I have found, in my experience, that the key to a well attended event is the coach. Please encourage your athletes to attend with their families. Many athletes won’t understand the relevancy of this meeting until they attend so your encouragement is appreciated. As you know, kids need to be reminded often. Again, This meeting is for every boy and girl who plays on a team regardless of ability levels. I focus mainly on academics, character, and dedication to one’s sport and team (the 3 most important things a college coach looks for).

Here is a link to a short video from the Roy High event held last Monday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oyz9qFY4l44

Notice what the kids have to say about the event. I assure you, the families who attend will thank you for letting them know about this meeting.

I hope to see each of you there as well.

Here’s a promotional video from an event he already did.

Wrestler Meeting 10/11 2:30pm

Allen — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 21:48:26 +0000

We will be meeting right after school tomorrow Tuesday the 11th at 2:30 in the wrestling room. I need anyone who may still have a singlet to bring it with them!! We will be getting you more information about the upcoming schedule as we get going. Please be there!!

Coach Humpherys

Parents Meeting Coaching change

Allen — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 19:43:25 +0000

OK our parents meeting will be 10/13/2011 at 7pm in the Tech Atrium. This meeting is critical to get information to parents about the season. We need you to be there!! Please try and make it fit in your schedule, if you can not be sure to get a packet from a fellow wrestler or Coach Humphreys.

Also we are excited to let everyone know of the change in coaching. Coach Humpherys will be the head coach this year. All current wrestlers and Grizz Kids wrestlers know Coach Humpherys and his dedication to the program for years now. He is a move guru who can lead and inspire kids. We go into the season with two kids ranked in state and a great line up, we are excited about where we stand and Coach Humpherys will do great leading the team. Coach Robins has had some changes that left him unable to commit to the demanding schedule of a head wrestling coach. He will support Coach Humphreys as needed and help the team, we’d like Coach Humpherys to focus on coaching so will do all we can to organize and lighten the paperwork load.

I hope you are excited about the upcoming season. Conditioning starts 10/17 at 3pm, be ready don’t come in unprepared. First day on the mat will be 11/7 with our first meet 2 weeks later on 11/22 against Orem at Orem.

Let’s get ready!!

Andrew Hochstrasser Camp

Andrew Hochstrasser is a Utah local wrestler out of Tooele that is wrestling for Bosie State and was a finalist in the NCAA tournament last year. He is holding a pre-season camp October 20-22nd at Stansbury High School. This is for 7-12 grade, starts at 9am each day and includes a T-shirt. Here is the flier but if you want to get a jump start on your season this would be a smart camp to look at and comes at a great time.

Weights and upcoming schedule…

Allen — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 16:11:16 +0000

Coach Humpherys is at the school Mon, Weds, and Fri at 6am opening the room up for weightlifting. This is the time to work on your strength, mid season it’s tough to recover from our workout and make any gains.

A Rough guideline of our schedule is… We will have a parents meeting around the beginning of October, start conditioning mid October, on the mat the beginning of November and the first meet is November 22nd, the first day we are allowed to compete. We will work out exact date for you but know what to look for.

There are club teams through out the valley doing fall league wrestling. You can get a whole season’s worth of matches in the fall if you partacipate, ask Coach Humphreys for more information on this I know some of you are involved with it.

Coach Norton 2nd Surgery

Allen — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 15:25:45 +0000

Here’s an update I got from Emily (Scott’s wife):

We have an awesome update:

More happy news!! Scott went through 11 hours of surgery yesterday and is doing extremely well. He is laughing, talking, smiling and moving all limbs. Memory, personality and motor functions are all intact and working like normal! He hasn’t had a stroke and all of the blood vessels look great. The surgeons said that the tumor they removed was the size of a lemon and that it was the most aggressive part, but still was a grade 2. We are feeling really blessed and know that Scott is going to fully recover. Thank you for your prayers!!

P.S. He still has a tube in his head for the cerebral spinal fluid to drain – to make sure his brain doesn’t get too much pressure, it should come out today or tomorrow.
