Alexandria Wrestling Celebrates 50 Years

Jaymie and I looked forward to spending a girls' weekend up in Alex - for the 50th Anniversary Celebration - but settled for a quick road trip with her 17 year old daughter and her friend. :) When I found out this event was happening - and then that Alex was hosting Moorhead and Anoka! - I was excited to plan a whole weekend with Amy and Jaymie! Amy - still in the hospital - so now instead of just cheering for Alex - we also cheered for Joey!

Joey ended up losing both of his matches - but Anoka did well overall! (except that the highlight of the night was Alex's #2 ranked heavyweight beating Anoka's #1 ranked heavyweight. Yeah - it was sort of a big deal.


After the wrestling - there was a program/reception thing in the cafeteria. Jaymie and I stayed for that - which was cool - but really, we were disappointed that more of our generation of wrestlers/cheerleaders weren't there. In fact - the only other classmate was Randy Olson - and I'm pretty sure he was there because his dad is a coach. Maybe next time they do this - there will be more buzz - and we'll see more of our peeps! (hope so, anyway!)

Good time - lots of fun! :)
