So when you coming back into the game coach? Portsmouth could really use a program!!!! Maybe start it at the middle school, then bring them up to HS.... If this gets started i'll find my way back home after college to help with this effort

Start it grass roots, best place to get wrestling in at the HS is with the middle school. I'd like to see Portsmouth who excells at so many other sports to add the one sport it really lacks. Wrestling!

Portsmouth has some beasts. A lot of them are just lifting right now because there is no sport for them to do. 75 kids go out for basketball (thats not an inflated number) and 50 get cut, theres about 30 boys on indoor track ( i bet half would wrestle instead), 20 swimmers and 20 hockey players and thats all they get offered. I have kids ask me all the time why Portsmouth doesn't have a team. Middletown has more sports and less students (grades is also an issue at Midd...not so much at Ports) I would love to see a team at portsmouth...unfortunately for midd, half of their youth program is portsmouth kids. With a 2 year old and a wife that works nights, i don't think i'll be coming out of retirement any time soon. Miss it a lot , tho.
