We feel pretty good about having that many of our wrestlers seeded.

I think the sign of a successful program is when your former wrestlers come back to coach, so we're very lucky to have all of them with us. Wrestling was never a really big sport on campus, and there were times when we were in a drought.
Chris West
I saw right away that high-school wrestling was a lot more intense. The matches are longer and there is a lot more conditioning needed because you're going against wrestlers that are a lot more experienced. It took a little time to adjust to that.
Adam Schuh
Mountain Valley has a lot of seasoned wrestlers. They just out-strengthened us in a few weight classes. They have stronger kids and when you have two wrestlers with the same knowledge and same experience and one of them is stronger, the stronger one is usually going to win.
Wally Caldwell
Mike has a shot to place at state if he stays with his mental focus. He hasn't lost to any 2A wrestlers this season.
Chadd Little
Just about every one of my wrestlers missed meets for one reason or another. Injuries took the biggest toll, then their was academics and even broken bones. We never did get Gerard (Moots) back and he was one of our top wrestlers.
Richard Chavez
I think coaches tend to make more out of that than the wrestlers do. If you are a good, sound, fundamental wrestler it isn't going to matter how many times you wrestle someone. Sometimes matches can go back-and-forth when the kids are more even, but if you're better, you'll win.
Scott Benitz
We control our own destiny in the conference, and that's all you can ask. But it's not going to be easy. East St. Louis has some very good wrestlers. They may not have the depth that we have, but they're a solid team.
Jon Wagner
Matt changed how he mentally approached matches after the regional tournament, and he did a great job today. He's in a position so many wrestlers can only dream of.
Mike Ritchey
It's a great thing to have good wrestlers that don't have grade problems because that's one less hassle you have to deal with as a coach. Kids with bad grades are a hassle for a coach if you're trying to do your job correctly because you've got to stay on top of that along with everything else you're trying to do.
Dennis Lyberger
Your sitting there going, 'No, no, no, then yeah, yeah, yeah. I find myself doing that a lot with him. He reaches back, which you tell wrestlers not to do, and he pins his guy.
Jeff Bricker
We'll call the WPIAL and tell them we pulled Patrick. We're entering 10 wrestlers.
Rich Burgdolt
It's about time. I'm kind of numb. I'm just happy for the kids. We had five champions, and the seniors got to go out the way they wanted to. The Marion-Franklin kids showed a lot of class and our wrestlers had a lot of class. Right now we just want to get the kids ready for the state tournament.
Brian Nicola
The depth in AA is the biggest difference, and the quality of competition is better. There are just so many quality wrestlers in AA.
Brian Martin
You have to apply to wrestle there. If accepted into the tournament, you expect to see the toughest wrestlers in the country. With teams like Iowa, Iowa State, Illinois and Central Michigan, the competition is stiff.
Derek Delporto
The first two years (the event) was ranked the fifth- or sixth-toughest in the state. Last year we had 68 wrestlers who had been state qualifiers. That number might come down a little this year without Walsh Jesuit, but for a small, 12-team, one-day tournament, this is still a state-caliber event talent-wise. The talent pool will be awesome.
Steve Haverdill
It was good experience for our wrestlers, but with our lack of experience as a team, you really can't expect a whole lot.
Scott Cardwell
This will let us know where we rank, as far as going against superior wrestlers.
Matt Cathell
This is to wrestling what the McDonalds All-Star Game is to basketball. I think this is the greatest place for amateur wrestlers to showcase their skills. I've seen a lot of kids come to this tournament over the years that weren't getting a whole lot of attention from colleges, and by the end of the event, they had established some valuable connections.
Keith Shields
We had too many young guys in there to give them a serious challenge. I just wanted to see how individuals could go out there and improve as wrestlers.
Tyrone Johnson
I am extremely disappointed with this performance and the results showed a lack of commitment, discipline and responsibility on the mat by many of our wrestlers. We have two morning workouts a week specifically for conditioning and when kids don't bother to show up and then get gassed in matches and lose, it is all a reflection of their lack of being willing to do the work.
Robert Arballo
Those two were closer than I thought they would be, but those are two good wrestlers Alton has. They made us work for those wins at those classes.
Russ Witzig
He's been in such a loaded weight class his whole life, and he's always been the underdog, always been overlooked, and yet he comes away with title after title. With the quality of wrestlers, it's probably the toughest weight class at the national championship and (the toughest to) walk away with two national titles. He has to be categorized as one of the best of all time.
Duane Goldman
This is a rebuilding year for us, but we have some very good wrestlers in our lineup and some who have struggled, but for us to win we have to wrestle well, like we have all year. Anything can happen in a dual, but we will have to win the matches where we are favored and stay close in the others.
Russ Cozart
That was probably the first time I've been totally impressed, 100 percent. We wrestled the toughest competition - top-ranked wrestlers - and just went after it. They all beat top-ranked wrestlers whether they placed in the tournament or not. And to come out with a third place trophy and missing two of our guns, man, that's unbelievable.
Adam Alirez
The competition was excellent and we were very happy to get into (the tournament). We are group A so how many times are we going to get to wrestle Grundy. I'm really proud of all my wrestlers. We were at a disadvantage because we are not at the level of competition as the other teams but our guys went out there with courage.
Karle Byrd
They, as a group and individually, have made a significant impact on the program and we will miss them. Their leadership is steady and accepting. I feel they have done an excellent job of showing the younger wrestlers the type of daily commitment that it takes to compete at our level of competition.
Jim Day
They have always been a heck of a one-two punch for us. They are second-generation wrestlers, so wrestling came easy to them. When they step on the mat, they knew what to do. I have just given them some tools along the way. They have had to back it up on the mat and in the (practice room).
Kelly Stephens
Poway is a powerhouse and they work really hard and they deserve all of the credit. But it's time for other wrestlers from our area to step up. If we (as a section) have a great showing at state, it will get the word out.
Todd Mckay
It's one of those championship, World Series-type events for those two every time they meet. Obviously (Ware) is doing some of the things right and he's a great athlete and a great wrestler. Every time Nate wrestles him, it raises the bar for both wrestlers.
Bobby Douglas
The guys earned their way to be one step closer to state, but it's only going to be harder next week. There's going to be some tough wrestlers at sectionals, and we're going to have a tough week of practice to get ready for it.
Todd Vanderloop
Berard is doing a wonderful job of building West up. He has some talented young wrestlers. They're going to be extremely good in the near future.
Brian Hearne
It was a good tournament, especially for some of the guys like Zach and Shane. This is the first year for them to try and break out and become solid varsity wrestlers.
Shane Valdez
A lot of forfeits, so it just came down to a couple of key matches. As it turned out, we had a few more wrestlers than Gwinn did. They're very much like us. They're very young. So it was nice to get the win, but both teams had not wrestled well.
Andy Skewis
I teach on that (East) side of the district and I know a lot of the East wrestlers. It isn't fun to have to compete against that team.
Darrin Cummings
I am so very proud of all my wrestlers. They performed like warriors.
Patrick Kelly
We have some bruises and we may have one or two wrestlers out. We were injury-free when we won the duals championship in 2003. It's not the same this year.
Kent Kersten
He allows the match to come to him and doesn't make too many mistakes. He and his brother are very good wrestlers.
Joe Warren
I'll be ready when the state tournament begins. I know it will be tough with the great wrestlers, but I think I have a shot.
Brad James
They're well-rounded as wrestlers and have good knowledge of the sport. Their drive and determination sets them above several of the others.
Charles Gillespie
Mack spent the whole ride taping his ankles and his headgear and visualizing. He's a step ahead of other high school wrestlers, but you would never know it from talking to him or watching him on the mat. He's so humble and a real class act.
Kirk Salvo
There are a lot of Class AAA wrestlers and obviously the out-of-state wrestlers in this tournament. I wanted to show everybody that a Class AA wrestler can win at this tournament.
Troy Dolan
This is tremendous to have six teams in here at one time and have the best kids on each team in this room. It is an asset for these kids to get different looks from (wrestlers who) have different styles.
Randy Reidler
Being the only qualifier from River Valley hurts a little bit. But it helps being with the Pleasant wrestlers. We all have the same goals.
Clayton Wetzel
There were some great matches today between some terrific wrestlers, but anytime you lose to Michigan it's tough. We had some opportunities throughout the dual, but we weren't able to take advantage of those situations.
Tom Minkel
We're proud to be in the state tournament. This will be a chance for a lot of our wrestlers to compete in Hershey, something some won't be able to experience in the individual tournament.
Chris Mary
When we started the 125-pound weight class, I think we were down 24 points and Turner still had five wrestlers. The key wins were the ones when we were head-to-head with Turner. When you look at the end of the day, all the matches throughout the day worked into the final outcome. I take that, and I appreciate that, but the way the team played for the championship was really good.
Ron Averill
This will be one head -knocker of a tournament. The wrestling will be outstanding with so many weights having ranked wrestlers.
John Murtaugh
[The wrestlers] know what the schedule is, they know what they have to do, it's just our job to prepare them for it. It's just something we have to go through.
Troy Sunderland
They are as solid as I've seen them in a long time. They are good position wrestlers. They are very, very solid. They are always well?coached. My hat's off to them. We wrestled great today. It's a credit to them. Why get upset when you got beat by a better team. We didn't lose it. They came out and won it. The good thing is we won't see them anymore this season.
Tom Mashek
The biggest thing is they match up really well against us. Their best wrestlers are at the same weights as ours and their best are just a little better than ours.
Andy Coulombe
We wrestled very well. Anytime you have 12 of 13 wrestlers in the championship or third place matches you have to be pleased.
Jeriamy Jackson
I thought the score would be closer, but I also thought that some of our wrestlers who lost would have won.
Mark Payne
I'm happy to take twelve to states. I'd like to take 14, but there are too many good wrestlers in this area.
Russ Cozart
He's always been good, but now he's turned into one of the elite wrestlers in the country. His work ethic and intensity have changed. He's much more intense. He has a lot of emotion and he does what he needs to do to compete at a high level.
Mike Garcia
Franklin Heights, I think they are a little banged up right now and have a few holes in their lineup, but they do have a couple of good wrestlers. They have a good 130-pounder and a 140-pounder that we have to watch out for.
Brad Harris
Coming off of four Pac-10 duals in two days, going 2-2 with a national qualifier and two nationally ranked wrestlers out of the lineup, we'll take it.
Lennie Zalesky
We have a very talented group. Of the seven wrestlers we have, we're all going deep in the tournament.
Anthony Hayes
We'll have around 150 to 200 wrestlers in the tournament from the southeast and northeast parts of the state. We're having mats brought in from Burlington and Chanute to be used along with the mat Iola High School has.
Stephanie Mcdonald
Because they've been here and know other wrestlers and schools, sometimes it can be a lot to handle. It really depends on the individual.
Brian Smith
I was pleased and proud with the way our guys wrestled. This was our best team effort of the year. The wrestlers stepped up to the challenges and wrestled well. We need to use this as a turning point to our season.
Jeff Courtright
We knew they didn't have a 171-pounder and Daniels didn't get to wrestle last week because Carthage bumped their wrestlers.
Kevin Huck
He's not real flashy, but very methodical. He doesn't get out of position. It's the same style you see with most collegiate wrestlers.
Don Cooley
It's taboo for me to date wrestlers.
Stephanie Mcmahon
This district has a great run of wrestlers from 125 on up. We might have four or five state place-winners wrestling here.
Luke Lanno
What an accomplishment. I told my entire team that, 'When you advance to the second day, you are one of the top 12 wrestlers in the state.' I couldn't be happier.
Ryland Wagner
Luckily, you get a couple days off after that tournament. He's been doing a lot of running, just stretching it out and keeping it loose. All wrestlers at some time throughout the season are a little bit banged up.
Ryan Nunamaker
This week it will be three times harder. There are five state-ranked wrestlers coming out of this region.
Scott Mcgaffic
It's heartbreaking to give up so many points. We knew New Milford was a powerhouse and we just tried to come in do our best and hope some of our wrestlers brought their A-game.
Jason Martin
We came here to win it and we didn't. But we still had a great meet and earned some strong seeds for next week's state tournament. We have five or six quality wrestlers that should have a good chance of placing.
Bill Royer
Bobby did an excellent job tonight. He's a clutch guy. He's been wrestling for three years and you have to expect that from your varsity wrestlers. He's been in the clutch before and he helped bring it home tonight.
Todd Skinner
It has been a great team effort to come back and win without some of our great wrestlers. Some have stepped up and filled the void, and it has come from different places.
Joshua Katcher
It means a lot to me to go undefeated. There were a lot of tough wrestlers here (like Riley). I did a lot of work on wrestling in neutral, and I think I did pretty well taking decent shots.
Andrew Dahl
Airport is the team that probably would give us the most trouble. The wrestlers they have in the rankings don't really do them justice. They've got some tough kids.
John Hollman
It is hard to predict how well a wrestler will do at states, but we have seven wrestlers who can get to the regional finals.
Shawn Guest
There are several unranked kids that have a chance to surprise the fans at this tournament. Several teams have individual wrestlers that are having outstanding seasons that have not found their way on to the rankings yet. It should make for a great tournament.
Tom Ellison
Last year he won the OCC and was second in the sectional and a (Division I) district qualifier. He is one of the better wrestlers on our team and he is a leader.
Nick Burgess
We were glad to get (three) wrestlers out to district. I'm very happy Chip made it through to district. I'm just happy they all got another week to wrestle.
Matt Mccoy
He's arguably the best wrestler in the history of our program. He's a great wrestler. Some wrestlers have a strong work ethic and not a lot of talent and some have a lot of talent and don't work very hard. Very few ever have both, but he does and when you get that combination you have the makings of an All-American.
Brian Preece
Kyle's been one of the top wrestlers in our program since he's gotten here. He's a rock in our lineup, and that's nice to have on your team when you go out to wrestle.
Todd Vanderloop
We're real excited about sending 11 to state. We also got a big boost from our junior varsity wrestlers, which is what you need to win a district championship.
Curt Berger
I think (one thing) I don't like is the fans don't get to move around to the mat where the wrestler's wrestling, so you don't necessarily have your team behind you.
Montell Marion
I was satisfied with our finish considering we're wrestling with only half our squad. We're still toying with our line-up and trying to find the right fit for our wrestlers and their weight classes.
Jeremy Reichert
That was as good as any final bout. The place was rockin' and they got after each other. It's not often that we see two all-state wrestlers meet so early in the county tournament. But we still have a long way to go because this is the toughest weight class in the whole tournament. It's loaded.
Bill Desario
(The wrestlers) came out of this feeling positive. Sometimes we've struggled, but coming out of this allows the kids to have the momentum to go into the heart of our season.
Keith Hoover
We are only taking the top two wrestlers in each weight class on our team to the nationals.
Carl Murphree
Sixth place is a bit of a letdown, but it was a very competitive weight class. I'm not taking anything away from the other wrestlers, but I could have done better if I hadn't been injured.
George Hingson
It's kind of depressing that we got blown out that bad, but 5-A had a lot of good wrestlers this year. It's bragging rights for the rest of the season.
Josh Wilson
I'm still going to the state tournament. All wrestlers hate to lose. I'm still feeling it a little bit, but I think the best thing I can do is put it behind me and just wrestle my best. I'm still confident I can take the state tournament.
Mike Waters
We do some good work in Delaware and we have some great wrestlers. We'll able to showcase our kids to a quality audience.
Don Parsley
It?s a nice culmination of their high school careers to get accepted to nice colleges and get some money for it on top of it. They?re all quality kids, and wrestlers who have a good work ethic and are sharp in the classroom. It?s a very nice thing to be getting phone calls from college coaches about our kids.
Tom Hontz
Most wrestlers are kind of short and he's tall and rangy, so immediately he poses problems for wrestlers because it's an unconventional body type.
Tom Minkel
His only high school losses came to some of the best wrestlers in the country.
Steve Powell
It is great because now Ridgefield will get the recognition. Ridgefield has had some great wrestlers and some that have placed at New England's. To get the gold means that we get to join the elite group of wrestlers.
Corey Paulish
Of our five kids who placed from our section, three are seniors. We had a pretty young team here. I think eight of our wrestlers were first-time sectional champions.
Mike Hogan
You see a lot of Russian wrestlers winning titles at 18, 19 and 20. Why can't I do it?
Henry Cejudo
Putting 12 in the finals is almost more than you can ask for. I was proud of our five champions, but you always want more. We lost a few matches to better wrestlers and a few we just didn't wrestle well in.
Scott Benitz
We're getting the wrestlers ready for the battles at the end of the season. We're happy to make the playoffs. That's always a team goal. But we have some guys with bigger goals.
Marc Billett
From my wrestlers, my goal for them is to meet or exceed their seeds in their brackets. This is a tough conference meet, and we will need every point we can get.
Terry O'neill
The wrestlers don't have a chance to be in front of the home crowd and they seem to wrestle better because of that.
Kyle Mayse
The Salem Civic Center is just a great environment. You get to compete with the best wrestlers in the state. There will be a lot of people there and it will be loud. It will be nerve wracking but it will be fun.
Jack Meritt
I was pretty excited. I got to compete against some of the good AAA guys and out of state wrestlers that I'll never get to wrestle. This match will help because I went against a lot of different styles.
Troy Dolan
We are eager to get back to state. I think we have five state places. We're not worried about the state title. St. Paris Graham will have 12 wrestlers there. Eastwood will have 11, and St. Francis de Sales will have eight.
Anthony Gary
Harvard studies have proven that wrestlers are the smartest of all athletes, they just hide it. Well Devan isn't hiding it.
Jack Maughan
It would be nice to get a few surprises. The kids need to peak at the right time. Everyone of our wrestlers have an opportunity, it is just if they want to take it.
Ken Bussard
Every weight class has two or three solid wrestlers. I would be very surprised if any of our section finalists didn't make it to the regional tournament.
Ron Ledbetter
Hobbs and Fluck are probably our two best wrestlers we still have wrestling.
Rob Leavitt
It was kind of a freak show. They had sumo wrestlers and big guys fighting little guys.
Phil Cardella
We had him stacked and we didn't get it. I was a good match. I'm proud of the wrestlers and their accomplishments. We're excited about going to the state tournament.
Chris Mary
This tournament will also give some of the reserve guys some time on the mat which is always nice. The exposure in the amount of matches we get Saturday will give us an idea of what we need to work on from here on out, and that experience will allow me to coach better, and will also help the wrestlers improve.
Robert England
A lot of good wrestlers have come through Carmel. It just feels good to be a part of that club and actually go above them. It's a good feeling.
Pat Mccabe
They're both positive role models for the younger wrestlers. What convinced me to make them captains was their work ethic, commitment and willingness to sacrifice for the team.
Dave Grant
We were pretty banged up with injuries and sickness at the Hawkeye 10 and against Creston. We needed the rest to get everyone healthy. Having wrestlers out of the line-up has affected our team mentally. We have addressed that with the team and we expect to wrestle well Saturday.
Trevor Carritt
Unfortunately, accidents like that happen in wrestling. Sometimes the circle just isn't big enough for the wrestlers. I was looking forward to seeing that match, too.
Keith Hoover
We took four wrestlers to the state tournament and three placed, so we're real pleased.
John Mahaffey
He's one of the best wrestlers I've ever coached.
Brian Degaetano
This was the first tournament for many of these young wrestlers and they all performed well. The boys are really progressing and improving each week.
Roger Moss
Even though he's one of our JV wrestlers, he's still part of our team. We gave it all in that last match for him.
Devante Griffin
All of the people were there - the best wrestlers in California. A lot of people were wishing me good luck. No one thought I'd make it to the second day.
Vincent Bordi
We had tough draws in the first round, and we knew it. We probably didn't wrestle quite as well as we could have. It's the state tournament, and there are a lot of tough wrestlers; everybody's good down here. You have to be ready to go.
Chad Latch
Every one of our wrestlers wrestled at their potential or higher. No one placed lower than they were seeded and that's exciting for us.
Armando Gonzalez
People who know Cody will be thrilled by his addition to our coaching staff. He knows Iowa State ... and will bring unique experience to the wrestling room. He did a lot to help our wrestlers during his time in Ames.
Cael Sanderson
One of the keys for Rich in gaining their trust was that we weren't there to make fun of them. We were there to hear their story. I think after a time they realized that. It's the way Rich was able to get backstage, the way he was able to see the wrestlers without their masks. Not all of them, of course, but the ones he became close to and trusted him.
Bill Hunt
We were very disappointed (by the loss). We've lost some wrestlers to attrition and injury, but we just didn't wrestle particularly well.
Jon Abernathy
Their first two rounds both wrestlers did a great job. They kept on working through the whole match. They did a great job and they deserve to be where they are at.
Dave Surita
It was a good win. They have some good kids, Wood River is back at double-A now and they are struggling with their enrollment a little bit. But they have some very good wrestlers in that lineup and they all came out and wrestled hard against us and didn't give us anything.
Russ Witzig
We have four wrestlers moving on. I'm proud of the way they wrestled. It was a great experience for them.
John Gagliano
It doesn't matter what [score] you're losing by in that last period. You go out there and go at it. By the third period, a lot of wrestlers are just hanging on, trying to get to the bell.
John Salmon
It isn't affecting wrestlers like Keith as much as it is the types of kids who could have gotten partial scholarships 20 years ago. With fewer schools and fewer scholarships you have kids who used to be able to get into college that just can't because of the numbers.
Nick Didomenico
We went at it with a business-type attitude. We had a great week of practice and the wrestlers knew what they had to do. We want to be state champions and the kids know the road ahead of us.
Mark Mears
We did great and I'm really proud of the way the guys wrestled. Five of our wrestlers made it to the finals, three took away titles and eight placed. We're three time defending champions but never have we won by this sizable a margin. It's difficult for us up there because we're not part of the North coast section.
Armando Gonzalez
Usually the wrestlers that place in the top four in the Blue Devil are the ones that are there or close in the state championship. It gives guys a good idea of what they will be up against come tournament time.
Paul Watson
It's really tough. I just feel like if I can win this bracket this week, I can win any tournament I enter. There are so many good wrestlers.
Chris Sheetz
He's one of the finest wrestlers ever to come out of the state.
Ted Heroux
In the past four 'hole-in-one years,' the tournament has raised approximately $50,000. It helps fans, coaches and wrestlers get to know each other better and promotes understanding and support for Club goals.
Betty Arnold
We learned a lot of things wrestling in the district meet. The kids picked up a lot about how wrestlers that are good enough to go to the state finals wrestle. Watching good teams, you learn a lot about style and aggression and what the sport is really about.
Ryan Kardash
They were state-placer quality wrestlers. ... That's huge. That's two state qualifiers, and with the size of my team, that's a tremendous loss.
Spencer Barzee
We beat them handily at the C.B. Invite with four champions and five seconds to North's two champions and one second. However, they had good wrestlers out of the line-up at 119 and 145 so I expect a battle in their gym.
Trevor Carritt
They just get so many wrestlers qualified, and they are good wrestlers, that it will be hard to beat them.
Rick Larsen
It will be a tough tournament with as many as 20 wrestlers likely placing at the state tournament. We have a tough tournament team but have battled injuries. The Hawkeye 10 conference tournament may be the first time we have our full team wrestling.
Trevor Carritt
I'm not too surprised that some of the better wrestlers struggled today, because guys can really get banged up at the end of the year like this. Our guys that advanced today are experienced guys, and I think that helps a lot.
Derek Scott
We had a motto this week: 'At this time of the season, you either win state or lose your last match.' I kept reiterating to my guys that they made it farther than a lot of other (wrestlers). They have to be proud of that.
Nick Wardell
A.I. outwrestled us tonight, in my opinion. I think the guys came in here and thought we were going to roll over them. They found out A.I. has some tough wrestlers. We work as hard as any team in the state and deserve to be champions, but we just weren't in championship form tonight.
Marvin Dooley
It wasn't our best day but you have to give credit to Watertown. They came out and wrestled really well. We were not emotionally ready this weekend. Some times that happens. We were having a bad day but we still scored 140 points and got nine wrestlers to state.
Toby Bryant
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.
Bill Plein
We needed Pleasant Grove to lose one more. But we were a solid sixth and we placed seven wrestlers, the most we've ever placed, so I'm happy.
Lyle Mangum
The unique thing is that the success of the two programs really goes hand in hand. We've had a lot of colleges calling this year. The success we've had really has opened doors, not only for these wrestlers but for the ones in the future.
Todd Herzog
A lot of wrestlers will tell you they hate losing more than they like winning. It's that nature I don't want to lose.
Joe Dubuque
He just can't continue. We understand that. I'm proud of him for even trying. If he did not wrestle this year at all, he'd still have accomplished more than most other wrestlers in a lifetime.
Cory Cooperman
These are the best 16 wrestlers in the state at this tournament. We're going to take it one step at a time and go from there.
Chuck Froehlich
Paul broke the Waldport dry spell of state placers last year when he placed fifth, and now we've made a bit more recent history by placing three wrestlers in the same year. It's been a long time since that has happened and since we've had a wrestler in the state finals. With all these placers returning next year, we are poised to make major gains next season.
Ezra Morse
With a lot of freshman and first-time wrestlers, you generally don't expect to get medals. The kids are all a little bit green, and they'll learn from this. It was sure tough on our seniors, though. We expected them all to take home medals.
Eric Sorensen
This was a superb event and trip for our wrestlers. For many wrestlers, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
