Tim Patrick lettered for Oregon State in 2008-09. His sudden and unexpected death occurred after a run on July 13, 2016.
Brandon Perkins, friend of Tim and Treasurer for "The FALL" shared the news with me and asked that I share this with all of you:
He (Tim) passed away last Wednesday. Service is at 10390 SW Canyon Rd Beaverton OR at St Matthew Lutheran Church at 2:00 pm on Saturday, July 23.
Tim was a FILA Junior National Champion in Greco and an All American in
Freestyle— at this tournament, he broke his neck but continued to
wrestle through the tournament and placed 3rd (freestyle). He would have
had a great career in front of him if he did not have that career
ending injury.
Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go out to Tim's family. He will be missed. May he rest in Peace.
For you, Tim - Go Beavs!

The Orange Crush offers year-round wrestling opportunities for local youth, free weekend camps and clinics, funding for out of season competition for the college athletes, and sponsorship for post collegiate wrestlers chasing their Olympic and International Wrestling Dreams. Without the support of The Orange Crush and friends and supporters of the club, none of this would be possible! Attached is information on the Dale Thomas Golf Outing for 2016!
The event will include lunch, 18 holes of Golf, a Golf Cart, Awards, Dinner, and Silent Auction. Coach Zalesky and staff will be on hand and want to share some updates with the program-staff additions, new recruits, and a 2016-2017 season schedule and outlook. We are excited about many returners and some fresh faces joining the program. We have had a good spring season of lifting and training and are looking forward to the challenges ahead.
We are looking for individual golfers, foursomes and hole sponsors! Please let me know if you can make it! Call me to sign up over the phone, or please sign up through mail on attached form. Enjoy the great weather and see you soon.
