  • John Madden, Hall of Fame Football Coach
    "I would have all of my Offensive Lineman wrestle if I could." - John Madden, Hall of Fame Football Coach "Well-respected by coaches and teammates for his tough, aggressive nature (comes from his prep wrestling background)" - NFL Draft Scout on Alex Stepanovich "One of the messages Denney hopes to relay to the Valley high school coaches and athletes is that wrestling is the perfect complement to football. While football is in its offseason, wrestling provides the perfect opportunity for the athletes to remain active, while working on their agility and conditioning, Denney said. Shawhan can attest to Denney’s theory, also having an extensive gridiron background. Along with playing semi-pro football, Shawhan also has years of being an assistant football coach throughout the Rio Grande Valley (Mission High, Harlingen High, PSJA High, McAllen Memorial and McHi). "In Texas, everyone knows that high school football is king," Denney said. "I’m telling you, though, Texas is catching up in wrestling. And a lot of the football coaches are realizing how much wrestling can help their football team. And believe me, that’s the truth. I know it firsthand. You have to remember when I started out I was a football coach in high school, and I would go to the wrestling team and get everyone that could to sign up for my football team." - By Wade Baker,The McAllen Monitor MCAllen, Texas. "My football coach told me, 'You better get in wrestling or I'll beat you up,'" -- Tim Lee, Texas High School All-American Lee said that wrestling helps him on the football field because he knows he has to stay low.

    Former Ohio State Defensive End Chase Young Selected By The Washington Redskins With The No. 2 Pick In The 2020 NFL Draft Former Ohio State defensive end Chase Young was selected by the Washington Redskins with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday night. HE'S COMING HOME‼️ pic.twitter.com/NAhLaPaNEg — Washington Redskins (@Redskins) April 24, 2020 A former five-star prospect from Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha Catholic, Young set the Buckeyes’ single- season sack record with a nation-best 16 1/2 sacks in 12 games last fall. And despite a late-season suspension for accepting a loan from a family friend that forced him to miss blowout wins over Maryland and Rutgers, he became the first defensive player since Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te’o in 2012 to earn a trip to New York City as a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. Young finished fourth behind LSU quarterback Joe Burrow — who was taken by the Cincinnati Bengals with the first overall pick on Thursday night — Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts and Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields. He also won a handful of national awards including the Chuck Bednarik Award and Bronko Nagurski Trophy, both of which are given annually to the nation’s bet defensive player, and the Ted Hendricks Award, given annually to the best defensive end in the country. A unanimous All-American who will also have a tree planted in his honor at Buckeye Grove, Young was also the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and the Chicago Tribune’s Silver Football winner, which honors the conference’s best player as voted on by coaches.
