Camp will focus on de- veloping fundamental skills— EBBS, continued from Page B1 “They tend to stick with Iowa because that’s where a lot of tough wrestlers go and are from and with Devin going to Grand View it gave me an op- portunity there.” Ebbs thought about play- ing football in college, too, and had an offer to participate in both sports at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Wash. “At the end of football season this year I was kind of thinking about it because I’ve played football since I was just a little kid, too, and I’ve always loved the sport of football,” Ebbs said. “But when wrestling season hit I think that’s when I decided I just wanted to be a wrestler. It was just kind of the leftover feeling from football being over and how I wasn’t ever going to play again so I think that was just me wanting to keep playing football. But I think after I got out of that lit- tle vision my mind cleared and I decided I just wanted to be a wrestler.” Ebbs has been around wres- tling his entire life. He was only 3 when his dad, Jason, took over the McNary program in 2003 after being an assistant coach at Crook County. “Even at Crook County, I’d be on my dad’s shoulders as he was coaching on the side of the mat,” Ebbs said. “At McNary I grew into the wrestling com- munity. I got to know a lot of the high school wrestlers and they all took good care of me. I just made good relation- footwork, shooting technique, passing and catching, indi- vidual and team defense, drib- bling and rebounding. Cost is $55 and includes a camp T-shirt.

Tired from high school practice, Jason told Brayden they could take the night off from mat club. Brayden responded, “If I don’t go to practice, they’re going to learn something I don’t know.” At age 10, Ebbs joined the All-Phase Wrestling Club in West Linn, and fi nished third in Greco-Roman and freestyle at his fi rst national tournament. In high school, Ebbs won two district championships at 138 and 160 pounds. After placing sixth in the state as a freshman, he placed fourth as a sophomore and then third his senior year. Ebbs said his favorite match was his fi rst at the state tournament when as a freshman he upset No. 1 seed Bennett Mesa, a sophomore at Roseburg, who had won the 106-pound title the year be- fore. “I think that’s my best match because I’d spent that The girls camp, led by varsity head coach Elizabeth Doran, is scheduled for 5 to 8 p.m. and open to girls en- tering second through ninth grade.

He prepared me well for my matches and just life in general. “It’s going to be different going to Grand View and not having my dad in my corner but I think I’m going to be just fi ne and I think he’s (dad) go- ing to be just fi ne knowing that coach (Nick) Mitchell over at Grand View is an amazing coach and they have an amaz- ing coaching staff. It’s going to be a change but I think it’s something that’s going to help me out in the long run.” game-winner. Bolton, which entered the championship game 6-2, had defeated Dallas at the begin- ning of the season but then lost to them later. “We knew it was going to be a close game,” Keizer coach Char Quinones said. “We’ve got a young team that we start off with and then we put the more experienced guys in the game.
