The Wacky Adventures Of Josh And Chad: HWF Wrestling: That Night At The Garden!

 Well, after a bit of a break, my twin brother Chad and I went back onto the road again and got to meet up with our friends of the Honorary Wrestling Federation over at the Heritage Fire Company in Lewistown Pa for their That Night At The Garden show.

As always we went down there to see friends and cover the event for my friend and mentor Kenny Varner and Hometown Sports Magazine. This event was special to me because for the first time in the history HWF, there was going to be a royal rumble type of match at their show. That is correct, an indy wrestling show was going to have a 30 wrestler royal rumble match at their show.

I was excited, yet nervous at the same time because I was worried and honestly hoping and praying that things were going to go smoothly. It is not easy to pull off that kind of match at a small time Indy promotion, but with that being said, I thought they did an amazing job.

A lot of the newcomers got their chance to shine and have a their first match in front of an audience. Getting to see the look on their faces as they finished up their stuff and seeing how relieved they were and excited they were being out there in front of the fans was awesome to see. Hopefully this will be the first of many great moments for them.

Of course, seeing all of my friends was exciting too, seeing where everybody was at in life and their plans for future goals is always a joy. Hope and Pray all you gotten home safely.

Overall it was such an amazing night! Everyone there were incredible, everyone just gave it their all and put on an amazing show. Hopefully they all love my story when it comes up.

I am proud to see what the HWF has done so far. I am proud of them because I know how much they want to help bring our community back up. You know, give them something to hope for and it is beautiful to see. Hope and pray for continued success.

Until Next Time!

God Bless and Be Safe Everybody! 🙏🙏🙏

Congrats To Trent Hidlay! (World Champion)

Image
 Although, it has become common knowledge, by many of us who live in Mifflin County. But former Huskies' great Trent Hidlay pulled off an incredible comeback and became the 2025 World Wrestling Champion in Croatia at 92 kg. After being down 10-2, Hidlay powered his way back to defeat Amanula Gadzhimagomedov 13-10 to win the World's Gold Medal. This is such an inspirational story that needs to be told because stuff like this does not happen very often, especially in a small community like Mifflin County.  To me, the story of Trent is all about never giving up and continuing to push forward as well as hard work and dedication. What this young man has done is truly remarkable. I have been covering local sports for over ten years now and seeing where Trent has started to where he is now really puts a smile on my face. I mean this kid has won two State championships when he was in High School before moving on to Division 1 college wrestling at NC State. While there, Trent was a fou...

2009 Lewistown Panthers Baseball

 Well, with me trying to become more positive about myself, I have been looking back into the past and find ways to let go of some of the negative emotions attached to it. One such issue was going back to my time at Lewistown Area High School which as mentioned before was a huge struggle for me.  But again, trying to be more positive, I wanted to look back at that time and remember some of the good moments during that period. One of which was playing for the Lewistown Panthers baseball team. Heading into my senior year of high school, I wasn't in the best state of mind. Honestly, I really did not want to be there anymore, I was just so sick of life, never thought I was going to be anything. All I ever was going to be was a huge disappointment. I can only give credit to God for being able to get through that year. But then baseball tryouts came along and I decided to go for it again. The previous years I've tried only to fail, which in fairness, wasn't much of a surprise bec...

Mother's Day Experience: Interview With Madeline Tressler

Hello again everybody! I have returned with another fun interview with mothers who are sharing their experiences as a mom as we prepare for Mother's Day. Today! I got to interview someone who it feels like I have known for some time now. Her name Madeline Tressler and she is the mother of three wonderful children. Hope you all enjoy the interview! JY: Was being mom something that you have always wanted to do? ML: Honestly, I did not contemplate it very much growing up. However, when I did become a mother, it quickly turned into the most meaningful part of my life. JY: What was going through your head when you were told that you were becoming a mother? ML: I had my first child when I was 22, so I was quite young and naive! Naturally, like most first time parents, I was very nervous and apprehensive. No matter how many baby books you read or how much advice you hear from others, nothing quite prepares you for becoming a parent. But most of all, I felt very fortunate to be blessed wit...
