The Panthers took to the mats on Wednesday to wrestle for varsity positions. Finalist had to best each other two out of three matches to earn the spot. Team White defeated Team Black 54-39. Many freshman got a chance to wrestle for the first time under the spotlight, a new tradition started at West Ottawa last season. "This a young team," Coach Ryan Lancaster speculates, "But they are aggressive and that is a difficult mindset to train an athlete to have. I have very excited to have a few seasons to develop these men and women. The onus is on my coaching to staff to help them hone their craft and cultivate a love for the sport." The season continues this Saturday at home at the annual Battle for the Bridge scrimmage where the Panthers square off against Holland and Fennville. The regular season opens up on the road versus Hesperia and Lundington. RESULTS ROUND ONE 119 O. Foster (BLACK) pin A. Mao (WHITE) 125 J. Sanchez (WHITE) pin. K. Heck (BLACK) 130 C.

 HOLLAND, MI Wrestlers from all over the state gathered at West Ottawa High School on October 20th to take part in the 5th Annual Myrmidon Attack Tournament. The Panthers had a great showing, with multiple placers. While it was a fundraiser for both West Ottawa and Myrmidon programs, a portion also went to Pinning Down Autism, a charitable organization whose mission is to respond and address the immediate needs of children and their families within our local communities that are affected by autism and to promote education and awareness of Autism Spectrum Disorder’s. Another portion went to GVSU Veterans History Project, an organization that record and archive oral history interviews and other materials relating to the experiences of military veterans of all eras, as well as of civilians and foreign nationals with stories relating to the American experience in wartime. The Attack Tournament is unique, as it is the only one of its kind. The Attack Bandz are utilized to keep score instead of traditional takedowns and escapes. The Attack Bandz themselves are a removable strap for wrapping around and securing to a wrestler's ankle. "Think like flag football, but for wrestling, " Coach Ryan Lancaster describes to new wrestlers."It's also a great learning tool," he went on to say, "that makes wrestling accessible to everyone, even kids that have never competed before." Of the sixty competitors, the majority of them experienced their every first tournament this past Sunday. $53.50 was donated to Pinning Down Autism. Myrmidon and West Ottawa have raised $1000.02 for this charity since 2016. $53.50 was donated to GVSU Veterans History Project. Myrmidon and West Ottawa have raised $53.50 for this organization since 2019. Myrmidon and West Ottawa have raised $107.00 for Pin Cancer since 2017 Together since 2016, Myrmidon and West Ottawa have raised $1,160.52 towards various charities.

 HOLLAND, MI
They say football is a game of inches. The same can be said about the sport of wrestling; advancement made incremental over years of training. Junior Santos Ajpop has shattered that notion, improving in wrestling by leaps and bounds. In a mere 2 years, he has cemented himself as not only a varsity wrestler, but as a team leader. Ajpop opened up to us about his training regiment and what motivates him to excel. How did you prepare for this season? I prepared for this season by going to most of the off-season practices and getting in the room with Coach Keenan and also attending Myrmidon and learning new techniques. What got you into wrestling? I got into wrestling because I was ashamed of my athletic abilities and I was always interested in combat sports and always wanted to try one out and wrestling was a good opportunity. How were the open mat sessions this summer? During the summer I went to all the open mats that I could. What are some of the hurdles you have to face? One of my hurdles was that sometimes there would be a scheduled open mat and I'd be busy. But thankfully Coach Keenan would make time so that I could get into the room and practice my technique and learn new things. What has been for motivation in the off season? My motivation for this season is to make it to Regional(s) and to advance my techniques. Who is your wrestling hero? My wrestling hero is probably gonna be all my mentors because they give me a whole bunch of opportunities to improve in this sport and they give me more one on one mentoring than what other athletes would usually get.  HOLLAND, MI West Ottawa a storied tradition of wrestling excellence over the last 50 years. To celebrate this, we are asking YOU the fans to help us decided our ALL-TIME TEAM. Each week, we will be going through one weight class and have you vote on your favorite wrestler. We will announce wrestlers each week and set up our 1st, 2nd, 3rd team.

In a sport that breeds hard workers, it can sometimes difficult to separate the truly exceptional from the pack. This is not the case for Logan Hornshaw. The tenacious senior looks to close out his career at West Ottawa as a champion. Logan opened up to us about his work ethic, wrestling in the sand, and the legacy he wished to leave behind, How did you prepare for this season? For this season I have been weightlifting and doing conditioning all summer, with some greco-roman wrestling tournaments. What was sand wrestling like? Sand wrestling is one of my personal favorite types of wrestling, shoving people into the sand and throwing, but it took days for the sand to go away. How has your brother being a wrestler impacted you? My brother wrestled for about 4 years while I was in elementary school, I saw him as a guy who would never back down, so in 4th grade I started wrestling. What are some of the hurdles you have to face? Hurdles I have had to face in wrestling was breaking the wall in my physical conditioning, starting up every season and you come back doing sprints and 3 mile runs and hard drilling and workouts, you hit a physical wall and end up breaking past that, but when you hit that wall you end up puking, sweating, and your body gives up on you, but the next day you can run faster, longer, and the workouts don't bother you. What would you like your legacy to be for the program? I want my legacy to be known as someone who never backed down, never quit, and never broke. Who is your wrestling hero? My wrestling hero was my dad who was one of the first wrestlers of his hometown high school. |
