I heard nothing but positive things. The coaches like the competition and the teams here. But a lot of people stepped forward to make it happen. It would be great to keep it here, but it's up to the ADs from both conferences to decide. This was kind of a trial year, but I hope they can keep it going. |
I was pleased and proud with the way our guys wrestled. This was our best team effort of the year. The wrestlers stepped up to the challenges and wrestled well. We need to use this as a turning point to our season. |
It's a little disappointing because he was a few seconds in both losses from being a state placer. I thought he was the better wrestler in both matches. |
That first dual was one of the worst performances we've had in a long time. We were pretty flat. There were a few close matches against Van Buren and we ended up getting pins. The opposite happened against Keokuk. |
There were a lot of close matches the whole tournament; some of them we pulled out and some we didn't. We have adjustments to make. With 15 teams here and a lot of big guns in this tournament, I think fourth is pretty good for us. |
This was a nice win to finish the season. Everyone in our lineup looked tough and wrestled the way we've preached all season. |
Tylor wrestled aggressively the entire tournament. He was focused on offense for every second of his matches. |
We pulled out big wins at the end that kind of sealed it. There were a couple of matches where we were caught out of position and got pinned. At this stage of the season, you hope you don't see those incorrect tactical things. |
