Big Walnut and Watkins Memorial are looking solid. They're all pretty good teams in this division. We won last year, and we have a majority of the team back this year. It is looking promising. We have juniors and seniors back that bring a lot of experience and leadership. |
Franklin Heights, I think they are a little banged up right now and have a few holes in their lineup, but they do have a couple of good wrestlers. They have a good 130-pounder and a 140-pounder that we have to watch out for. |
He was in the finals again last weekend (Wapakoneta Tournament) finishing second in his class. This is the third time he has been in the finals and he has won twice. |
I don't know what to say about this game, but we as coaches realize we've got to change some things, the way we do things, |
I think we looked a little flat and sluggish. It was a little disappointing, but we had a lot of distractions. We ended up without Josh Crow, who injured his neck the week of sectionals and was not cleared in time. |
It is nice to be recognized, but realistically it's just a poll and it doesn't decide where we are finishing. But being in our third year, it is nice and it shows that other programs are noticing that we are doing well. |
It was a very ugly game for the Badgers. |
It's a result of the hard work of the team from top to bottom. They are working well as a team and are putting everything together that they have learned in practice. Everyone is working hard and the results are showing. |
Ross Hartley and Evan Williams have both really done well. They have both been in the championship rounds this year and have gained some experience. They have some wins under their belt and that experience will help them as the season progresses. |
The driver had to brake hard to avoid a collision. There were various degrees of minor head and neck injuries. |
We beat them 39-36 and it came down to the last match. They are a very solid team. But I think we are a tougher team than we were then. |
We have six guys going to district and they know what they have to do. |
We were very disappointed in the way we played. We were very disappointed in how we acted. |
We were winning most of the tournament, and it was a good experience. We saw some things that we can improve on and some things that we can build on. |
We've got to get better offensively. We're not giving our defense a chance. |
