indyt Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I have read the book to my son's and they loved it. Joe Reasbeck will be at PM all weekend for a book signing. Our Guest is coming in from Austin, Texas and he wrestled at the University of Minnesota for J. and trained for the 1996 Olympics. He was at our tournament last year, but since that time "NearFall" has become a best seller in sports fiction for kids and young adults. He will be there through the duration of the tournament to do a book signing. For those unfamiliar with the book...NearFall is a 4-book series following the lives of two brothers as they work their way up in wrestling and life. Basically, it's like Rocky for wrestlers....the second book in the series will be coming out soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
