Wrestlers prepare for State led by Seniors

Hendersonville, Tenn. – Two things are a given during a Hendersonville High School wrestling practice: Seniors Dylan Treloar and Tre Delgado will beat the tar out of each other, and when practice is over, they’ll still be friends. In fact, you seldom see one on the mat without the other … usually trying to pulverize the other into a greasy spot. They’ve been going at it since the sixth grade.“It’s not out of meanness,” explained Treloar, a 138 pounder who can snap an opponent’s head to the mat in a blink, “it’s to make each other better.”

Dec 12th Update

Hendersonville, Tenn. _ Dylan Treloar, Tre Delgado, and Michael Perry were double winners for Hendersonville this week in a tri-meet with Overton and Beech.

 The Commandos lost both matches Tuesday, falling to Overton 48-33 and to cross-town rival Beech 65-14. Beech was the night’s big winner, topping Overton 49-19.

This year’s campaign for the Commandos has been one of stops and starts. After losing their opener to McGavock, they beat East Literature, fell to Dickson County, then dropped a dual meet to conference foe Clarksville.

They rebounded at the Knoxville Catholic Invitational tournament, finishing seventh in a field of 26 teams and placing four wrestlers in the top six: Treloar, first at 138 pounds; Perry, 2^nd at 160; Adam Wilson, 4^th at 170; and Delgado, 6^th at 145.

Titans look to wrestling mat for draft picks

Stephen Neal in his collegiate daysUniversity of Iowa retired wrestling coach and Olympic gold medalist Dan Gable once said, "Once you've wrestled, everything else in life is easy." Perhaps the Tennessee Titans have that quote hanging in their war room, as they have targeted football players with grappling experience.

Their second and third-round draft picks both have wrestled. Zach Brown went undefeated as a heavyweight in his senior year of high school. Mike Martin won a state championship in Michigan his junior year of high school, and only gave up wrestling because of his football scholarship. Karl Klug, who has seven sacks for Tennessee as a rookie in 2011, qualified for the Minnesota state tournament as a wrestler.

"It's something that to me, when a guy has been a wrestler, especially when he has been a successful wrestler, it says something about his toughness and his commitment," general manager Ruston Webster said.
