Freeman boys (minus one) take on the best!


The weekend before Carter's state tournament we traveled to Kansas City for the Liberty Nationals. It is a huge tournament fielded with kids from all over the country. Although we knew this level of wrestling was out of our league, we couldn't past up the opportunity meeting up with the Michigan Freeman's for a full weekend of wrestling! It was so good to see our nephews and Al and Nancy. I hadn't seen them for nearly 2 years! The boys had a blast together and I think Jeremy and Al had a great time talking shop. 

Carter and Nick 
Looks like trouble! 
Sam (9), Ben (13) Carter (6) Nick (11)
Way to go champion Ben! 
Ben meeting the great Nate Carr. Nate Carr was a former wrestler for Iowa State and team USA. He won a bronze medal in the 1988 Olympics. Our very own Al Freeman ( Ben's dad) was Nate's training partner for the Olympics! It was so cool Ben got to meet him!
