Ranger123 43 Report post Posted October 24, 2006 Anyone heard if Newport is having a team this year? I heard rumors that they may not have a team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plee 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2006 Wow, what a shame! Coach Middleton has done a great job to build up their m.s. & jv teams at a school that has never had a wrestling program...(at least not in the last 25+ years). This would be a step in the wrong direction for Kentucky wrestling IMHO. I hope this is not true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bulldog-leader 56 Report post Posted October 24, 2006 Newport "WILL" have a team this year. I e-mailed coach Middleton a couple of days ago and he said he will probably have a full varsity squad this year.He is having trouble finding a practice site, but plans on participating varsity and middle school this year.

grappler-of-old 44 Report post Posted October 25, 2006 I believe Newport had their first varsity squad last year, but started a middle school team 2 years before that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grappler-of-old 44 Report post Posted October 26, 2006 I don't think there is any problem going on over at Newport about losing their team. From what I have heard they are ready to go, just sorting out a practice site at the school, but should be up and running at full force this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
