More Wrestling Memories

We are having fun watching Beau wrestle this year. This is our 16th year of high school wrestling and I have enjoyed every moment. These last few years I have been storing up the memories knowing that these days are fast coming to an end to return no more. Our boys have learned a lot about focus, mental toughness,discipline and courage, though the sport of wrestling. They also learned how to believe in themselves. They have learned that failure is only a stepping stone to success. Here is the video of Beau's latest hard won match. He is normally wrestling 220# weight class but at the team sectional they decided the best strategy was to wrestle Beau in the higher 285# class. The logic for this was that Beau wouldn't have to wrestle the same guy last night and again on Saturday. That meant Beau had to take on the #5 state ranked heavy weight and give his opponent a 54# advantage. This is the result of the match.
