He's been stuck behind some tough kids. He's been in that district and regional mix for the last three years. It was really big for A.J., the first high school tournament he's won in his career. It was a culmination of all his hard work and dedication. |
Luckily, you get a couple days off after that tournament. He's been doing a lot of running, just stretching it out and keeping it loose. All wrestlers at some time throughout the season are a little bit banged up. |
We kind of felt that 152 pretty much could go to any one of a number of guys. It's one that A.J., as far as we're concerned, has as good a shot to win as anyone in his weight class. |
