East Carolina University Wrestling Clinic April 10th

From ECU Program Advisor Milt Sherman, shermanm@ecu.edu

Hope you will get this to your wrestlers and, if appropriate, to your middle school or youth group.  There are two discounts available.  Enrolling in advance is $5 cheaper.  Also, as usual, we are looking for a 2nd mat for the event.  If you and your team can bring your mat to the clinic we will discount all of your wrestlers $5 each.  Get in touch if you can do this.

We are all right here in Pitt County, so our offerings can be a real benefit to all area wrestlers.  Give me a call or email if you have any questions about the clinic or ECU wrestling.  Presently we have wrestlers from Washington H.S., Southern Nash, St Pauls, and West Iredell wrestling in the NCWA Nationals in Florida.  Love to take some Pitt county wrestlers in the future.
