Coley didn't wrestle his best, but he wrestled well enough to beat a pretty good kid.
Wilton always has a good team and it is a tough place to wrestle. Right now we are concentrating on (today). No matter what happens, on Wednesday we will start preparing for districts. We are taking it one step at a time right now.
We decided to make some switches early on. Our goal was to get a good jump?start on them. Billy and Jose got us a nice lead.
We wrestled probably as well as we could have. I can't take any credit for this. We told the kids what they needed to do, what to expect and set some goals for them. They did everything themselves.
We're happy with the efforts of the five kids who are still alive. We are disappointed because we wanted to keep everyone wrestling. But like I told the kids, this is a long tournament. The success of today can go quickly if you don't stay focused.
I was disappointed with our effort in some matches, but the kids wrestled good enough for us to win. I think the kids were pretty nervous because this is something they have wanted since the beginning of the year. I think they were a little too keyed up. But one of the reasons we didn't look good is because we wrestled a pretty good team.
When we sat down after we saw the draw, we were hoping we would be in a position that if we needed to rely on someone to win it for us, it would be Seth. He's as good a person as anybody to rely upon.
We're just grinders. You're not going to see us do a lot of flashy things.
Our seniors were good leaders. Those wrestlers showed what it takes to get 11 kids into the finals. I'm proud of our leadership. Next week, there's a different tournament for us, we're going to have to make some changes.
