WARMING UP – A group of runners from the Mustangs Track and Field team make their way around the track at a practice on Wednesday at Fowler Athletic Park.
Hard training
Manson is now eligible attend a variety
of training camps and international
tournaments as the alternate for Toor.
“I’m like a secondary guy so it’s still
good.”
Manson’s last tournament before
nationals was the high school provincials
in High River and the Grade 10 St. Albert
Skyhawk finished fourth in the 59-kg
division after placing fifth at the metro
Edmonton championships.
“I hurt my (right) arm in my last match
so I had to go to physio to help it out
because I had nationals coming up and
I’m lucky I did nationals. My arm felt
really strong.”
Manson averages four training sessions
per week and eight hours overall with
the Edmonton Wrestling Club, where he
has pounded the mats for six years, in
addition to extra wrestling workouts at
home and strength and cardio sessions.
“Wrestling develops mental toughness.
It’s very intense to say the least. In the
heat of a tough match your lungs can
burn and your legs and back can feel
worn out and it just takes all that power
Continued from page 54
to say, ‘I’m fine, I’m good. I can keep
wrestling, I can keep going even if my
legs are on fire and my arm hurts,”
said Manson, who credits the tutelage
of Scott Johnston of the Bertha Kennedy
BobKats and Curt McDougall of the J.J.
Nearing Dolphins for showing him how
to succeed in the sport.
This weekend Manson and his buddy,
Jack McDougall, another accomplished
Edmonton Wrestling Club grappler and
Grade 10 Skyhawk, are competing for
spots on Team Alberta at the Western
Canada Summer Games in Fort
McMurray. Only wrestlers that placed
in select tournaments were invited. One
wrestler in each class makes the team and
the runner-up is the alternate.
McDougall also attended nationals and
in a strong 24-man bracket in the cadet
63-kg division he finished seventh at 3-2.
McDougall is also the 62-kg metro
Edmonton champion and provincial high
school silver medallist during a season
of several podium finishes at a variety of
tournaments.
