🚨 GIRAFFE SIGHTING UPDATE 🚨

Gracie the Giraffe was found just miles from the Texas ranch she disappeared from nearly two weeks ago! 🦒❤️
Authorities say Gracie is safe and doing well, but what they didn’t tell you is where she’s been all this time…
Rumor has it she stopped by BWA for a little off-season training! 💪🤼‍♀️
Witnesses reported seeing a giraffe in a black and pink singlet hitting double legs, drilling takedowns, and putting in extra mat time with the team. 😆
Looks like all that hard work paid off—she’s back home and in the best shape of her life!

What an incredible week at our Intensive Wrestling Camp at SMHS! 🤼🔥

We wrapped up an amazing camp, and I can honestly say every athlete who stepped on those mats leveled up. My own kids are still sore, which tells you just how hard everyone worked!

One of the best parts was watching our BWA wrestlers perform at a level we haven’t seen before. The growth, confidence, and intensity they showed throughout the week was incredible.

Coach Nathaniel brought a tremendous amount of knowledge to our athletes, but what impressed me just as much was the discipline he brought to the room. The kids were locked in from start to finish. Keeping the attention of over 45 wrestlers for multiple days is no easy task, but he had their full focus the entire camp.

Thank you to all of the athletes, parents, coaches, and supporters who helped make this camp a success. The hard work, sweat, and dedication displayed this week will pay off when wrestling season arrives.

Over 45 campers. Countless lessons learned. New friendships made. And a whole lot of growth.

The future of wrestling in San Marcos is bright! ❤️🖤🤼‍♂️💪

Nd of course A huge thank you to Comal County Wrestling Club for all of the hard work, dedication, and countless hours that went into making this camp happen! You guys are amazing and we are forever thankful for your partnership!!!
