As far as we're concerned, they are the real stars of the event. |
Bigger kids, once they're on the mat, it's hard to get off. That gave us momentum. |
It really is about a whole lot of people working together that really can make a difference if you band together. |
It seems like we've started (in the heavyweights) the last three, four matches. It helps when you have our better boys coming up later. I don't mind finishing up that way. |
Part of this day really is a celebration of all of the work the motorcyclists have done. They've worked all year long - they don't let anyone off the hook. |
We try really hard to maintain the focus of this day on the kids. |
We weren't expecting it but we'll take it. He's a first-year boy and everything thing he works on in practice is geared towards the legs. |
We've met them the last two years and we knew they were good. They're better than they were last year. |
When he's on, he is as good as anyone we've had. Technique-wise, he's as explosive a wrestler as we've had. |
When you have someone like him for four years and working like that, it's hard to see him lose. He spent a lot of hours preparing for this. |
