Barlow's match was tremendous. He came out and shot a double and almost took him to his back in the first 10 seconds. It was 4-0 after a blink of the eye. Brendan wrestled a smart match. He got ahead and stayed ahead.

Brendan has always been a heavyweight, but he was a small heavyweight. We started the program with freshmen and sophomores, with no upperclassmen and we were going out and wrestling a varsity schedule. We've been wrestling a varsity schedule for three seasons.

Brendan wrestled (Nicholson) a pretty athletic and pretty strong heavyweight from Marion-Franklin.
|
Brendan wrestled smart in the first couple of periods, but when he broke him down and broke him flat and got that tilt, we thought it was going to be 3-0. And as soon as we thought that, it was over.

Chillicothe gives up four or five weight classes. I like the tough schedule to continue because sometimes when you know you are going to have a down match, your kids take some time off mentally. They need to be pushing themselves every week.

Gary did a super job. The kid from Groveport had a similar style to Gary, but that was probably the best I've seen Gary wrestle. He wrestled a smart match. He went after the kid and he was aggressive in all the right ways.

Grove City is good. It will be a battle. They match up with us relatively well. They graduated a lot of seniors last year, but it will be a good match.
|
I like the way we've moved up. The kids work together. It will be different next year because this is the first time we've graduated a class, so there will be people missing in the room. Before, we had the same number of people coming back.

I liked the way we bounced back against Delaware. I was more upset that we were sort of flat and intimidated by Marysville. It looked like we were wide-eyed. We didn't know what to do. Against Delaware we knew we were back on the track, but I thought we looked a bit timid against Marysville where we shouldn't have been.
|
I thought his shoulder hit first, but they said his head hit first. They took all of the injury time and they said his head injury was so bad that he couldn't finish the match.
|
I thought the kids came together and wrestled exceptionally well. The best thing is we came back from adversity.
|
I'm disappointed, but I'm not greatly upset. We're just not in the driver's seat anymore in the OCC and I would like to be in the driver's seat.
|
It's going to be a tough, tough league. I think our kids can battle.
|
Last year we took nine to district and got only one to state, so right now I'd like to take at least one, but I think we can get three or four out.
|
Legg and Barlow aren't undefeated anymore. I'd rather have it happen now than in two weeks.
