Thanks Aaron, What you just said makes a lot of sense and put into words what I wanted to say but didn't because I'm just a HS Senior, not a College wrestler that did what I want to do, you just gave me the hope that I wanted/needed to be successful. I know I am not a 4x HS placer or even 1x, but I am a person that doesn't give up, after being JV my freshman year and under .500 i could have rolled over and settled for mediocrecy, but instead i pushed for what i wanted and become something.

Aaron you don't realize it but you've already made a connection with me that I cannot repay you for, you have already givin me the courage to try what i want, and also shown me that no matter what comes your way to never back down

Mike i know that i am not a great wrestler, just a little above average at most, but i am willing to try for something i know is a little out of reach right now, but what about a year from now? with that year of experience in me? all i'm saying is that just because i'm not Josh Baldridge, Simon Orozco, Tait Weatherbee, or Aaron Ellison means that i probably won't be as successful as they may in college, but at least i'm trying and that's all i can do. right?

fossilman if you want to bag on me and my teammate(s) that's fine, but at least have the decency to sign your name at the end of the post. I know i have said somethings that i now regret sometimes, but usually all it is my opinion and guesses on things, not talking smack but just voicing my opinion, if you want to keep talking about me that's fine, but at least sign your name as it shows your character if you don't
