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. Do you want to....
