This is an awesome writing. It's sometimes hard to explain to non-wrestling people the draw to wrestling. Some also don't understand the emotions that are involved - and why your 8,9 or 10 year old can't "take it like a man" when he loses. A dedicated wrestler, male or female, experiences such intense, independent feelings about their accomplishments on the mat. In the next few weeks, we will all see the wrestler described in that writing in our various sub-district, district and State competitions. Good Luck to all!
