[Conklin] started out a little slow, but he picked it up at the end. It's redundant, but if you wrestle hard the whole time, good things will happen and those two showed that. |
Chad showed what wrestling for seven minutes does. He worked hard the whole match and kept wrestling. |
I got a cat up there that's going to die. |
I now understand what it's like when your parachute doesn't open and your whole life passes before your eyes, |
I'm very excited for the opportunity to continue on the path of taking this program to the next level. I think the guys are excited and everyone is ready to get the season underway. |
It is clear from our inspection and reviews that the department has made substantial improvements that have strengthened the non-immigrant visa process since Sept. 11. |
It's a prime example of us not wrestling the whole match, but it shows that we can hang in there and wrestle against these guys. |
My big thing now is to start training the guys. As the head coach, I'll have to be a little more strict. |
Phil really went out there and took care of business. This was his last match and he was our first recruit. I'm happy that Phil did what he was supposed to do. |
There were times when we were wrestling well, but we let up for a split-second. A good program like theirs?you can't give them an opportunity. |
There's been a huge explosion, a lot of damage to the building. You won't be hearing from me for a while, |
They let the adrenaline get to them a little bit. It's just two competitors trying to win. |
We gave up some points on the edge where they just kept wrestling. We just have to get it in our guy's heads that it's necessary to wrestle for seven minutes and to wrestle until the whistle. |
You don't ever want to lose. But, for us, it's a no-lose situation. It's a good measuring stick for our guys. |
