Assist Nico and Marco in Representing Team PA
Donation protected
Nico and Marco have had a good spring and have qualified to represent Pennsylvania at two national competitions this summer. They both will be competing on the Pennsylvania National Junior Duals Team that will be competing in the National Junior Dual Meet Championships in Tulsa, Oklahoma on June 15-19. They will be attending a 3-day training camp preceding the event. This is one of the premier events in the country with Pennsylvania always one of the favorites to win it. They will be competing against other state National Teams against many of the top wrestlers in the country.
Later this summer, they both will be going to Fargo, North Dakota as part of Team Pennsylvania to compete in the USA Wrestling Junior Freestyle and Greco-Roman Championships. They both qualified via placing in the top 4 at the Northeast Regionals in Freestyle and being Co-Champs in Greco. Marco followed that up by winning the 16U-Greco Roman State Championships which was also a qualifier for Fargo. Nico did not compete in the states. They will go to camp prior to Fargo from July 12-16 before heading to Fargo until July 24.
Pennsylvania USA Wrestling does a great job in keeping the cost down for the wrestlers but we still need to fundraise a fair amount of money for both trips. The costs associated with both trips include: training camps, transportation to Tulsa and Fargo, registration fees, coaching stipends, lodging in Tulsa and Fargo, and team gear.
The approximate cost to cover for boys for both trips will be $2500. We are very grateful for all those that have reached out and willing to help with our boys. We thought this was the easiest way to do it.
We are very proud of our boys for the work they have put into the sport and the opportunities they have received to represent Pennsylvania this summer at two top national tournaments. We know that they will make everyone proud with how they will prepare and compete for these events.
