“Closing My School of Morton Wrestling School – Newport, TN

I wanted to let everyone know that I’ve officially decided to close down my wrestling school in Newport, TN.

I’m grateful for everyone who supported it, trained there, or believed in what we were building. Thank you for the memories. The amount of successful talent that came out of the wrestling school speaks for itself. 11 years strong!

On to the next chapter. It’s a good one!”
