Finishing 20th against this kind of competition wasn't bad. |
He also has a bad asthma problem. With the thumb and the asthma, we had some worries, but he's come back healthy and nothing seems to bother him. |
He can go on his own. I think of all the steals he has this season, I've given him the sign to steal once. He just basically has good baseball instinct. I have no problem with anything he does. |
I don't like to blame the refs. But they didn't have one of their best games. |
It's all about players. If you have players as a coach, you'll do well. I was lucky enough to have some great players over the years. |
It's wonderful. We worked really hard to convince people in Oakmont and Kenwood it would be a good idea. A lot of people did a lot of work on the ground, walking. I think that made the difference. |
Josh Tripp also got a big win for us at 119. He beat their best kid. |
No question that playing high-level competition on a neutral floor does help you at the NCAA tournament. |
Of our five kids who placed from our section, three are seniors. We had a pretty young team here. I think eight of our wrestlers were first-time sectional champions. |
Ohio State University Extension is excited about the opportunity to host Extension agents from around the country for a week, and show off our state, our university and our outstanding Extension and research programs. |
That's a great athletic night for a wrestler. The first night you win sectionals -- it doesn't get much better than that. |
This [band stuff] started getting pretty crazy. We were coming down to New York quite a bit. It made more sense to relocate down here and really take a shot at it, so that's what we've been doing. |
To beat a traditionally strong team at their place is pretty good for us. |
Without him, I know I wouldn't be the person I am. He's the one who taught me all about dedication. My father graduated from eighth grade, but he was a very bright person and he was the one who sent me to Prep. I remember I was a sophomore and it was report card night at Prep. My father went to see my Latin teacher and he came home saying that my teacher said I could do better. I said, 'Dad, I'm getting an 80.' He said, 'Your teacher said you can do better.' I said, 'But Dad,' and he said, 'Your teacher said you can do better.' I got the message. I always tried to do better. I know he's looking down from heaven and enjoying this. |
