Growing wrestling / Halftime show

[mdtodd]

I may be late to the party here but always want to promote ways to grow wrestling and give credit where it’s due.

 

Long time PHHS head coach, Dave Cloud, has been a staple in growing Indiana high school wrestling for 40+ years. And the grind never stops! So before the season he had the idea of a half time show! After a discussion with the IHSAA to work out logistics, it was determined it would be the first in Indiana!
Next comes, Hit The Mat Studios which is a YouTube channel about Indiana High School Wrestling ran by Mike Estep. Mike is a great guy looking to promote Indiana High School Wrestling all over the state. 
So we invited him for our first home dual of the year which included Indiana’s first ever high school wrestling half time show. Half time show was wild game of bubble ball between the PH track and baseball teams.(if you don’t know about bubble ball go check it out on the YouTube channel) 

 

Link to YouTube channel is below. I hope you all go and support the channel and invite him to your events for coverage.

Lastly, just wanted to give a shout out to these two men for continuing to look for new opportunities to grow and spread the word on Indiana high school wrestling. Keep up the good work gentleman!!

Thanks for sharing this! Enjoyed the videos and channel. Nice to see the coverage for the east central Indiana area. 

 

Yes, Dave Cloud has and continues to contribute a lot to the sport.  Many years ago, when there weren't as many clubs or academies around, he would welcome wrestlers from all over to the room during the off season which was not common back then. Have a lot of respect for him and the program!
