Thanks for the positive comments on wrestler's who continue to practice with their partners even though they themselves may not have qualified for states. That is a true champion, the ones who will sweat it out on the mat to help their buddies get ready for states.

Donnie and Dave...

Tell your kids to keep working hard, to be proud of their accomplishments this year! We'll all be looking for them next year at States.

On a personal note...my son wrestled 2 consecutive years into District, only to be knocked out one match shy of states as well. Last year I was deployed during Subs and Districts and my wife has jokingly kidded me that he couldn't focus so it was my fault he didn't make it. This year I am proud to say he won Subs and won Districts. No matter how he does, medal or not, I am EXTREMELY proud of him and the effort he puts in. He isn't the best wrestler or even close to it on our club, but he has heart and wants to win...and for that I am thankful to be here to see him out there battling.

Murray and WrestlingParents...

Good luck to your son's at State. May this weekend both wrestle their very best!
