            This past Friday and Saturday the Garretson youth wrestling club, along with head high school wrestling coach Brady Schleuter, put on a two-day wrestling camp which featured three-time All-American Robert Kokesh as camp clinician.

            Kokesh is entering his fourth season as the assistant wrestling coach for the University of Nebraska. He is originally from Wagner, South Dakota and is second all-time in wins in Nebraska wrestling program history.

            This camp included sessions for youth and high school students.

            "This year's camp was a success!" said head coach Brady Schleuter. Over 40 youth boys and girls participated, and the high school team got to have two days to themselves to learn from Kokesh.
