some matches we weren’t sup-
posed to win. It all balanced
out in the end and just fan-

to see these kids start standing
together. Wrestling is a team
sport. I’ll always say that. I’ll

did a good job tonight. We al-
ways say we’re training to be
the best wrestlers we can be
come February and today was
a big jump.”
