Coaches Update
Oregon State Wrestling Fans,
The Intrasquad is done, now it is time to move on to the real thing - competition from outside the Room!
Home Opener - Thurs. Nov 9 - 7 pm
The Beavers welcome the relatively new (revived a few years ago after being dropped quite a while ago) Eastern Oregon Mountaineers to Gill on Thursday, November 9 at 7 pm.
The Ticket Office and the doors will open at 6 pm.
If you are purchasing your ticket, you have to enter through the main
doors on the east side of Gill. If you are a season ticket holder and
have your ticket. you should be able to enter on the south side doors as
well.
Parking in the lots around Gill and Reser is free. Handicapped spaces are located on the east (front) side of Gill.
Scouting EOU
If you'd like to read up on the Mountaineers, their latest article covers their home opener with the University of Providence. Don't forget to say hello to the Assistant Coach, Ty Vinson who was a Beaver just a few short years ago!
Oregon
State also has an article out, with more information on who might be
starting, especially at 149, 165 and 174. You can find that story at osubeavers.com. Some decisions are yet to be made.
Live-streaming?
Over
the weekend, the decision was made to have streaming video. So far, no
link has been put up. I will let you know if I can where exactly to find
that if they do get it arranged. If you haven't heard from me and can't
be there, check the OSU article page and the schedule page. Those are the most common places to find streaming video links.
If
you can't be at the meet, another possibility would be to check
TrackWrestling.com for live stats. They covered the Intrasquad, so they might cover this
meet as well.
Social after the Meet
"The FALL" Fan Club will be hosting a Social after the conclusion
of the meet. It will be held in the Loge, level 2 of Reser Stadium. You
will find a small door open at the NE corner of the stadium, just
across the street from Gill. Enter the door, turn left and take the
elevator up to the second level.
Since we have just started our membership drive for the year, this Social will be open to all. Donations will be accepted at the door. Board members will be present to take your donations and help you sign up to join the club.
This will be our first try at a different style of Social.
The previous caterer was too expensive for the amount of food we got,
so our Treasury took a hit. This year, "The FALL" is assisting parents
to provide a tail-gate style of food for your munching pleasure as you visit and enjoy the short program. We hope you enjoy it!
Of course, we will continue to have door prizes. Everyone gets one free ticket and you may purchase more - $1 each or 6 for $5. You will find the prizes
laid out by small bowls. Tear your ticket in half and drop one in the
bowl beside the item you'd like to win. Keep the other to check the
numbers when they are called.
Join "the FALL" Fan Club
As mentioned, we have started our membership drive for the year. Here is how to do it:
You
have several ways of signing up - either with your credit card on-line
or the old fashioned way of printing out the form, filling it out and
mailing it in along with your check. You can also bring it along and
hand it to any Board member at "The FALL" table in Gill before the meets
or at the Social in The Club.
Once
there, all you have to do is scroll down the page to find the options
you want - membership, extra donations to help us fund activities, and
merchandise that can be purchased.
We'd
really like to encourage everyone who can use the on-line method to do
so. The system takes care of much of the paperwork for both the
Treasurer and the Membership Coordinators. I have done both and I know
how much time that can take!
Paper Method:
If you can't wrangle a computer, then please go ahead and do it the
regular paper method. Just print out the file, fill it in and mail the
form and your check to our Treasurer, Michael Denison. His mailing
address is on the form. I have attached the file with the letter of
invitation and the membership application form to this email.
We will also be available in the lobby of Gill until about 10Convention Center till 7, then at a table by the door in the Loge at the Social where you may sign up in person.
Upcoming Events
Coming up next Sunday, Nov. 12, will be the Mike Clock Open at Pacific University in Forest Grove. This is an all day event, beginning at 9 am.
Most of the team will participate, as this is one of the open
tournaments. It is a fun way to see how the team stacks up against other
competition.
You might want to start making your plans to attend the Cliff Keen Tournament in Las Vegas, NV, Dec. 1-2, in the Convention Center. According to their web page, this year they will be located in Hall N4,
which means they will be right up front, along Paradise Rd. No more
long walk down the concourse to C5!
The
Cliff Keen is a great tournament - with competition the most like what
you would find at the NCAA's this far out west. Take advantage of it!!
Save the Date - Banquet
While the Banquet is our celebration at the end of the season, we actually have the date picked out. April 14th, 2018, Saturday, will be the date, put it on your calendar, please! More information closer to the actual date.
