J.J. Watt Foundation funds Two Middle School Wrestling Mats

TDR Editor’s Notes; As Marty Robbins sang “Out in the west Texas town of El Paso….” we found news of new wrestling opportunities. While they are a far ways off any time we see news of new teams it is pointed out as it is to encourage others to think about increasing the opportunities for more wrestlers. Can especially relate to the thrill in “…scents of the new wrestling mats …”.

Few things smell better than a brand new car. Except, of course, if you’re a physical education teacher and you just got a brand new wresting mat. At least that’s what Victor Morales, a coach at Guillen Middle School, thought earlier this week as he took in the sights and scents of the new wrestling mats that were donated to the school by the Justin J. Watt Foundation. “It’s beautiful,” Montes said. “This is going to be such a big help.” Guillen and Magoffin middle schools received new wrestling mats thanks to the foundation created by J.J. Watt, the star defensive end for the NFL’s Houston Texans. The foundation provides funding for after-school athletic programs in underserved schools in Wisconsin and Texas.
