Well were back from the State Wrestling Tournament.
My sons first match was against the #1 seeded kid in the state(seed =rank)....
Man you talk about a match. the score was 2-0 and not in my sons favor. He won his 2nd and lost his 3rd. which put him out of the tourney. I don't think he ever really recovered mentally. from the first match. He totaly poured his whole heart and soul into that match. and to come up 2 points short due to a small mistake in the 3rd round. which gave the other kid the 2 point reversal and the win. was some-thing that stayed with him the whole tourney.
Hes still a winner in my book. We'll getem next year!!
I APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT THAT WAS OFFERED! THANKS BROTHAS & SISTAS.

Along with only getting beat by 2 points, through a slight mistake is something to keep your head high about. Hey he could have been like me and been ranked both jr & sr years in the top 6 and go on to choke in the regionals both years. now that was tough to get over, after hearing that kids I destoyed placed at state. He has alot to be proud of and looks to have some good support and that's all that matters. Keep up the good work!
