Get ready to strap it up for the first ever Border Wars Fall Dual Championships as some of the best from the Midwest journey back to Lowell, Michigan for another go around of Championship Club Team Duals action.

Lowell High School Gymnasium will be the setting only this time the Fall Foliage will be in full color, football will be two thirds over, and all the talk will be everyone's Pre-Season Wrestling Rankings. This has all the signs of a great weekend of wrestling with Pool style format, comments Tournament Director Rob Stehley, adding no matter what time of the year that  you can capture teams from Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania in a Team contest your gonna have something special.

The first year event is expected to draw a dozen of the Top Midwest Clubs and although some might be missing the lineup because of High School Gridiron commitments, the Coaches are really pumped up about the caliber of wrestlers filling the rosters. Be sure sure to visit the Duals page over the next few weeks as the complete field of teams will be released, tournament preview and potential key matches. The date is October 18th and wrestling starts at 9:30 am at Lowell High School, Michigan for the 2009 Border Wars Fall Dual Championships.

Several of Michigan's Top Elementary and Middle School Wrestlers teamed up to capture this summer's NHSCA Jersey Shore Duals Tournament on August 8th at Long Branch High School in New Jersey.

MYWA Middle School and Elementary National Dual Team Director Ritch Roberts pulled together outstanding lineups and terrific parent support as Michigan National Team members took the 12 hour journey to a very nice beachside community for the event.

Coach Roberts commented on the fact that anytime you can travel into an area with the level of competition that you get in states like New Jersey and Pennsylvania and come away with the Championship hardware it is a real good indicator of how are program stacks up.

Team MYWA knocked off Jersey Triumph and Team SEPA in both Elementary and Middle School Division to earn the Championship Crown.

Coach Roberts pointed out that some of the wrestlers in the Jersey Duals lineup will be moving up to the high school level and several will return for the upcoming Fall and Pre-season events and several more opportunities will come as the NUWAY National Organization will be conducting a Michigan Qualifier for ages 12 & under - 10 & under - 8 & under Dual Teams for the NUWAY National Duals to be held in Ohio in early February. Weight's will need to be filled for the Team MYWA rosters, the Michigan Qualifier will be held on December 19th at Michigan State IM West Building next to the MSU Spartan Stadium.
