Oregon State Wrestling Fans,
First
of all, a follow-up to the sad news of FALL club member and former
Beaver wrestler Phil Frey's passing earlier this week. His funeral
service will be held at St Vincent's in Salem on Saturday, Jan. 26.
His
former employer, Chemeketa Community College, put out this statement
about Phil (shared with me by FALL Board member Craig Scharer):
We were saddened to hear that Phil Frey passed away on January 21. Phil was the part-time wrestling coach from 1973-1976. Phil served on the Chemeketa Board of Education from 1986-July 1997 and was board chair from 1993-1995. In July 1997, Phil was hired as the Auxiliary Services/Bookstore manager until he retired in May 2012. Visitation will be Friday, January 25 from 3-7 pm at Howell, Edwards, Doerksen with Rigdon-Ransom Funeral Directors, 1350 Commercial St. SE, 97301. Funeral service will be on Saturday, January 26, 11:15-12 pm, at St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church, 1010 Columbia St. NE, 97301; and graveside service at 2:30-3 pm at Belcrest Memorial Park, 1295 Browning Ave. SE, 97302.

Our
hearts, thoughts and prayers go out to Phil's family. He will be
missed. May he be an inspiration to many young wrestlers as they see
what they can accomplish in life if they are willing to give it a try!
Looking ahead, as I know Phil would want, the Beavers will be wrestling again at home this Friday at 7:00 in Gill. The Clackamas Cougars
will be coming down to challenge the Beavers. Although the Cougars are
in a lower division than NCAA Div I, they have been a perennial
powerhouse in their division, so don't expect them to be a pushover.
Let's get a full house to enjoy some exciting matches between the
Cougars and the Beavers!
One note - the FALL Board members will be out in the lobby until about 15 minutes before meet start time. You can pick up your member pins if you have not already done so. There will be no Social following the meet this time.

One
final event coming up for the Beavers this week is the last Open tournament of
the season for guys on the squad who chose to participate. This
Saturday, Jan 26, the California Collegiate Open will be held at San Francisco State.
Go Beavs!
