THE BEST WEEK EVER: TYLER JANES GETS MEDICAL CLEARANCE MONDAY AND MAKES THE MOST OF IT

This time last week, Tyler Janes wasn't sure if his high school wrestling season was over or not.

A freak practice injury in the wrestling room suffered ten weeks ago when he met Pirate Heavyweight Jacob Borgmeyer shin-to-shin resulted in a broken tibia and a season's worth of watching and healing.

On Monday, the Hannibal Sophomore got medical clearance to wrestle again...

But that was only the first victory in nearly unthinkably good week.
