It was difficult for him because he knows what he's capable of and it was difficult not to be able to show what he could do. He's such a competitor, a great leader and a great kid. He just wasn't at full strength and he wasn't at 100 percent with his conditioning. We just decided to focus on his health -- I mean, he's a tremendous athlete who could pretty much just pick a sport and say that's the one he wants to play at college -- rather than trying to get one or two more wins from him. |
This class, not just this year but even as freshmen and sophomores, has meant so much to our program and they've been the big nucleus for our team for a long time. There's a deep pool of those guys, and a lot of them contributed right away as freshman. Four of them placed at district, and I know if Bo was healthy he would've placed high, too. I'm very excited about next year's team. It's a great group of guys that will be leading us next year. |
