the border, Simon Fraser. On Friday, Nov. 15 OSU and Simon Fraser will

in Covington, Wash.
NCAA TOURNAMENT TICKETS
This
upcoming March the NCAA Tournament will take place in the largest venue
the event has ever seen; U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Given the large capacity the NCAA will give each institution the amount
of tickets they ask for. Due to this fact, if you tell us that you want
tickets a credit card number will be needed as these tickets are
GUARANTEED. IF YOU ORDER TICKETS THROUGH US YOU WILL GET AND YOU WILL BE STUCK WITH THEM.
If you are interested in securing your tickets for the NCAA Tournament please reach out to Assistant Coach, Taylor Meeks before JANUARY 1, 2020: Taylor.Meeks@oregonstate.edu
THE 100 CLUB
One
of our new initiatives this year which serves as a replacement to our
Pledge for Pins drive in the past is The 100 Club: It is designed to
help the growth of the Beaver Regional Training Center (RTC). The money
gifted goes directly to the Beaver RTC which is a Nonprofit Organization
that supports the travel and training expenses associated with the RTC.
Our
goal is to raise $100,000 this season. For example, that is 1,000
individuals donating $100 each. If you would like to join the 100 Club
please print out this FORM and mail it to our PO Box. The address to which is on the form.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE TOURNAMENT
It
is that time of year again as we gear up for our annual Making a
Difference Tournament. On Saturday, Nov. 30 teams are open to descent
upon Corvallis and compete on a college campus against some of the best
wrestlers the area has to offer. The tournament will be held inside of
the Truax Indoor Facility located behind Reser Stadium.
