In the early matches we didn't have the intensity that we needed. They beat us at a few weights I thought we could win, but we didn't wrestle well. You have to credit Rapids, they got the job done. |
It was nice to have a tournament at home, and I'm happy with the result. Most of the kids got to wrestle five matches today, and you can learn a lot from a day like that. |
Kyle's been one of the top wrestlers in our program since he's gotten here. He's a rock in our lineup, and that's nice to have on your team when you go out to wrestle. |
That was a tough weight class year. I think this year he will be right there in the mix again. |
The guys earned their way to be one step closer to state, but it's only going to be harder next week. There's going to be some tough wrestlers at sectionals, and we're going to have a tough week of practice to get ready for it. |
There's definitely no time to sit around and feel sorry for ourselves. What we've preached to the kids in practice is that sometimes a mistake can happen, but you always have to be looking to learn from that and come back stronger. |
