I knew the coach and he got me into it. What I liked about wrestling is that it was an individual sport, but in the same time, what you did individually also helped the team out as a whole. |
I saw right away that high-school wrestling was a lot more intense. The matches are longer and there is a lot more conditioning needed because you're going against wrestlers that are a lot more experienced. It took a little time to adjust to that. |
If I don't get a pin doing that, I will at least get back points for it. I like to start out on defense for a few seconds and get a feel of my opponent, and then I will go on the offensive and attack. |
