Thank you for recognizing their effort. Going into state I would be lying if I didn't say it crossed my mind to have Cade move up or down a bracket ... but only for a second. Then I realized I had to live what I preach. I told Cade I'd rather him lose to Jackson than win in another bracket (and I'm not making that assumption either). We talked about pride, honor and giving everything you have ... about conquering things you've never conquered before and believing in yourself (I get kinda emotional about this stuff). Cade hadn't beaten Jackson ... ever. In fact Cade had been pinned quite a few times. At any rate, Cade responded and I couldn't be prouder of his effort - not his victory - his effort. Jackson is a bad to the bone wrestler and really cool kid - I'm just glad there are kids like him. I love this sport - the people in it - and what it teaches!!
