Jesse and Corey Jantzen Clinic

Last evening, Wednesday 8/25/2010, Beat the Streets Wrestling-NYC held a
world class clinic with arguably New York and United States most
distinguished brothers from both a wrestling and academic standpoint –
Jesse and Corey Jantzen, both from Shoreham-Wading River HS and Harvard
University. (Corey is slated to graduate in 2012.)

Jesse is regarded in many circles as the Roger Banister of The Empire
State in the sport of wrestling. He was NY's first ever 4x Champion,
adding two 3rd place finishes as a 7th and 8th grade, a High School
National Title, and the prestigious Asics National Wrestler of the Year
at the culmination of his HS career. Upon HS graduation Jesse attended
Harvard University where he was not only a 3x NCAA All American and
National Champion (3rd, 3rd, 1st), but a 3x Academic All-American and
eventual Junior World Champion in 2005.

Corey at the time of his HS graduation was equally as dominant and
tallied Two New York State Titles, Two High School National Titles and a
plethora of national recognition for his ability to wrestle and place at
college and open level events. He's currently attending Harvard
University where he's an NCAA qualifier and considered a major threat to
win an NCAA title in every wrestling publication across the country.

Roughly 75 athletes from all 5 boroughs were represented at the
Manhattan Training Center, and the quest to become a dominant force in
NYS and the Tri-State area was, again, established with the work and
dedication that was shown last night.
