I can't beleive what all I have just read. But becuase I have I will respond. First and formost, there is never, and I mean never!!!!! a reason to act in an unsportsmanlike way such as not shaking an opponents hand, yelling at the crowd, whatever. It is a shame that there are clubs and teams in the state where the coaches allow such behavior. I hate to use Abilene as an example but I will in this case. I remember my friend Dustin Tovar losing in the state finals his junior year after being an undefeated state champ his sophmore year and being undefeated until that point his junior year. He had far more accomplishments than Charles and was in a better position to win state than Charles was in his match. He lost that match and as much emotion as I know he had he certainly did not throw a fit or do any of that. He lost with class and I guarantee that was a product of the enviroment he grew up wrestling i, namely the kids club, middle school, and high school, becuase none of the coaches in those three clubs would have allowed it. Another example is myself, my middle school coach would not let me attend the NCKL tournament my 8th grade year becuase I made a choice that was not right. I was heart broken but I certainly learned my lesson. After being undefeated my Junior year until my 1 loss at state I was extremly emotional, but I shook hands with my opponents and walk out of the arena with class. Now out of site of everyone I did get upset but Mr. Christner came and found me and I can honestly say that I don't ever remember him being more mad during the 10 years I've known him when he saw me feeling sorry for myself. But he encouraged me and I came back and got 3rd which is the best I could have done after that. So what is my point? Basically there is no excuses for this type of behavior. I don't accept that crap about how the crowd always boos a guy and he has a tough life and he has an excuse to be that way. No way!!! As a coach I will not ever, ever, let one of my kids act that way, if he/she does they are done for the tournament or in extreme cases the rest of the season. Some people around the state need to start accepting some responsibility for their actions and this starts with the coaches. One last thing this post was not meant to be directed toward Charles in particular but to everyone who displays this kind of behavior. Crying is an acceptable behavior provided it is done out of site to other people.
