Team Central Wrestling Club

A few of our TCW wrestlers spent the day learning at the Avila University Leg Riding Camp. Thank you to the Avila coaches and athletes for sharing their knowledge and giving our kids another opportunity to improve! 🤼‍♂️

The last couple of weeks have been awesome for Team Central Wrestling!

Our wrestlers had the opportunity to head to Columbia for the Mizzou Tiger Style Youth Wrestling Camp, where they learned from some of the best coaches and athletes in the country. Experiences like these are what help build the next generation of champions.

This weekend we were back in Columbia, competing at the historic Hearnes Center for the Show-Me State Games, and our kids represented TCW with heart and toughness.

🏆 Results:
🥇 Finn Moehle – 1st Place
🥈 Hendrix Gleason – 2nd Place
🥈 Asher Miller – 2nd Place
🥈 Gryder Elliott – 2nd Place

We are incredibly proud of the effort these kids continue to put in every day. Wrestling isn’t just about medals—it’s about showing up, learning, competing, and getting a little better every time you step on the mat.

A huge thank you to our parents for making these trips possible and for supporting these young athletes. The future is bright for Team Central Wrestling!

Cat’s out of the bag… David Gleason is running camp tomorrow!

Just a reminder for camp this week, if you paid for spring dues the camp is covered. If you didn’t pay for spring dues, please Venmo Bryan Elam’s company $50.

TCW showed up strong at the Southern Plains Regional this weekend.

While we’re proud of the results, our focus has never been short-term success. Our mission is long-term athletic development—building disciplined, resilient young athletes through consistency, accountability, and hard work. Wrestling is the vehicle, but character is the true outcome.

We’re proud of every athlete who stepped on the mat, competed, and continued the process of growth. This journey is a marathon, not a sprint. Great things are built over time, one practice, one match, one lesson at a time.

For those who stay committed, trust the process, and continue to buy in—victory will not be denied.

Proud of this team. Back to work.

Team Central had a great showing at the Missouri Freestyle & Greco State Championships this weekend in Springfield. We’re proud of all of our athletes for the way they competed, battled, and represented the club.

Spring and summer wrestling make winter champions. While many athletes slow down after folkstyle season, our wrestlers continue putting in the work — sharpening technique, building toughness, and developing the skills that carry over into the winter season. Freestyle and Greco wrestling build pressure, positioning, confidence, and grit.

This weekend showed the results of that hard work with multiple state placers and champions across several age groups. More importantly, we saw growth, heart, and determination every time our athletes stepped on the mat.

Now the focus shifts to the next challenge as Team Central begins preparing for Kids Nationals and Fargo.

Discipline compounds. Toughness travels. The work done in silence always shows itself under the lights.
