Chad showed what wrestling for seven minutes does. He worked hard the whole match and kept wrestling.

John Lange

He's a tough kid. He wrestles a whole match. He doesn't stop wrestling. If you take a second off with that kid - obviously that's the result your going to get. But we're going to prepare for him because we're definitely going to see him again.

Adam Alirez

We have a lot of guys who are going out there and wrestling hard. Kids are going out there giving there all. A.J 's giving his heart. No one is giving up. That's what I like to see.

Tucker Grass

Ultimate Christian Wrestling is like any other pro-wrestling bout you might see on a Saturday night in rural Georgia. Except the characters and story lines come to a dramatic climax at the end of the show straight out of the Book of Revelation: At the end of this show, dozens of folks in the audience said they were called to accept Jesus into their hearts. It was quite a thing to behold.

Jake Tapper

It's very nice to get a win tonight, especially for our seniors. You can tell every senior was wrestling with a lot of heart.

Dan Roton

Being a district champion gives you a good draw, and if you can win those first two matches, you know you're going to place. With the way Andy is wrestling right now, he can hang with anybody in the state.

Kevin Mcfann

Last year for wrestling, we'd get done at 6, 6:30. I'd be dead after that. I wouldn't even want to work out.

Joe Rizzi

He set the goal of winning a league title his junior year and he was very, very dedicated to his team. His sense of loyalty was unmatched. I've been coaching high school wrestling for 22 years over three states, and I've never come across anybody with the same competitive nature as Chris.

Reggie Roberts

This is the best time of year for wrestling and something really just clicked for me today. I was having trouble finishing all year, but today I really felt confident. I'm feeling no pressure because I'm not even expected to be here right now.

Kyle Kinchen

There's no drama like wrestling.

Andy Kaufman

We only had 10 guys wrestling and six of them made it to the finals. That's pretty good.

Steve Smerz

It was a long two days of wrestling. You never know what's going to happen this time of year. We had some disappointments, but basically our kids came out and wrestled well. You need to win this tournament to be anywhere close to winning the section championship next weekend. I'm proud of my kids.

Sal Imbimbo

The way I've been wrestling has been working out well for me. I figure if I have a chance to beat him, I'll try (a five-point move).

Trevin Cowman

One security guard was wrestling with him while he was shooting. The El Al security guard left the counter, fired one round at some range, then fired one or more rounds as he closed because that man continued to fire and also had the knife with a six-inch blade in the other hand.

Matt Mclaughlin

We're wrestling better. We still need to work on the mental part a little better.

Daniel Cramblett

It's great because it's all four of us working together. We are all here and our teammates are here for us also. Just being down in the (wrestling) room with our guys, our teammates, it really helps.

Jon Campbell

I made the best of it. But it's been tough, especially last year, when you know you could be here, wrestling.

Jake Bucha

We use wrestling as a format for ministry. We believe God's word holds the answers. ... This is just a different vehicle to give that message.

Bill Adkins

I love Bobby Douglas. When you think of wrestling, you think of Coach Douglas.

Cael Sanderson

I was a lifelong fan and a student of the wrestling business. When I got the call to come over as a consultant for that, to help with the production of a regular TV show, I was floored. It was a dream come true, like managing a football team would be for some people or whatever.

Bob Mould

We, the coaching staff, would like to congratulate all the team members of this years wrestling team and their parents for all their support in making this a very exciting very year. Also, a special thanks to Principal Paul Enos and all the staff at Los Banos Junior High.

Jerry Lujan

I don't like long hair, and with coaching wrestling it was especially tough. Kids were always telling me to get it out of their faces.

Chadd Little

That was different. I'm used to wrestling freshmen and eighth-graders. He was smarter. He was more experienced.

Corey Ulmer

This is what I work for. This is really what I want to do. I eat, sleep and dream wrestling. Now I understand why I have to be in the [wrestling] room. It's paying off.

Henry Cejudo

We may have to move out of the wrestling room next year, because we're running out of space.

Doug Henke

He put in a lot of work over the summer. He really worked to improve. Playing varsity football, he's a hard-nosed kid. He has very solid (wrestling) technique. He's very strong at 130 pounds - that's one of his key traits.

Casey Schweitzer

We were still wrestling through last year when Greg was a senior. In wrestling, there is never a dull moment.

Brent Fosheim

It's important to learn what they have to do, not only to be successful in wrestling, but to make weight in the morning and that night. This will be very important to get ready for state and knowing how to make weight that night and not have to run and make weight in the morning.

Darren Weber

They have lion's hearts. I think that's going to pay off for them more in life than all the wrestling skills.

Tom Borrelli

There was good wrestling all across the board. It was wrestling like it should be - very exciting.

Patrick Darby

He was a beloved coach, teacher and friend; some of the students were in a state of shock. Yes, Y.C. and I had our moments as coaches from rival schools, but we remained true friends over the years. I saw him two weeks ago at a middle school wrestling tournament. If there was an athletic event at that school, he was there.

Bob Jenkins

I hope that he will involve our alumni who understand the unique tradition of Princeton Wrestling and will no doubt want to see that tradition continued.

Gordon Scharf

This is a true brotherhood of wrestling people here in the Valley. We'll handle this situation and do everything we can do to embrace and comfort the family.

Otis Dowdy

The (final) score doesn't indicate how much mat wrestling took place tonight. St. Joe's kept everything close. There were some really tight matches.

Keith Hoover

It has all gone by pretty quick. I fell in love with wrestling that first year and it has been fun. It has helped me in terms of being more confident and focused.

Wilson Frasier

This way, somebody can have the keepsake or whatever, but then also it helps out wrestling and hopefully bring a little more awareness to the book coming out.

Rulon Gardner

Despite being ousted from the tournament in his last match, he showed me that he is not going to be outdone by his senior counterparts. After a brief absence from competition in the early part of the season, he is rapidly catching pace with the team and wrestling impressively. Tyler is our silent leader and has always been someone we can count on to get valuable team points.

Jeremy Reichert

Josh wasn't quite there at 130. He was wrestling OK, but his shots weren't quite there. He wasn't wrestling like I expected him to wrestle.

Trent Rollins

It creates more opportunities for girls to prove they can wrestle, whether it's with boys or other girls. That young lady is blazing a trail for wrestling in Wisconsin and for women's wrestling in the country.

Bob Empey

It's their dedication and time spent on the wrestling mat. They really peaked at the right time and they achieved what they set out to do.

Kris Hayward

He had a great tournament. A lot of these kids have been wrestling since they were little guys, so for Shaun it was about the learning curve. He's always had the physical ability and the quickness but, against kids like this, that's not always enough.

Bernie Botheroyd

I tried football and didn't like it. I like the one-on-one aspect of wrestling.

Sam Zylstra

You can't take it home with you. When my son was wrestling, we never talked about it at the dinner table. You do it in the practice room where it matters. Kenny's a good assistant coach. It can work for you if you do it right.

Davy Zinke

That was a huge match. It's the one time (overtime) in wrestling when you can stall. You hold your man down, you win. That was a very close match.

Gary Chase

That felt great. From then on, I could just sit back and enjoy the kids wrestling.

Billy Baker

We feel that it wasn't really built for the type of wrestling tournament we were used to in the past but it's definitely one we can grow into.

Wes Creason

In football, I lifted weights pretty hard corps and that helped me get strong. Wrestling really conditioned my body. When I was on the field, I felt like I could run forever.

Astin Villarreal

They wrestled a great match. We know they've been wrestling some tough matches. I think that might have been the best match they wrestled all year.

Pete Dipol

Wrestling is the only sport I've ever competed in that puts you totally in a situation of constant [motion] without breaks. I could play football or baseball, swim -- but there's always some kind of situation that would break my thoughts, break my concentration.

Dan Gable

I would say that this part of Pennsylvania has the best wrestling in the country.

John Salmon

People don't understand the level of commitment it takes to be at his level. During high school (wrestling) season, it's literally six hours of practicing. It's just day in and day out, and then also the tournaments on the weekends. He puts a lot of time in, and I have nothing but respect for what he does.

Billy Hayes

I was supposed to be out two months, but I returned three weeks later. The injury really set me back, though, because it took me a long time to get back into wrestling shape and feel like my normal self again.

Brendan Moore

He is somebody who I look up to and who has had a big influence on my wrestling ability.

Kent Miller

I was speaking at the middle school wrestling banquet in 2002 after we'd finished second in the state tournament. I passed around my (runner-up) ring and told them that we were going to get the other ring, the champion ring, before they left high school.

Jim Tonte

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

I wanted to get the first takedown, and I wanted to build on it. I don't think it was the wrestling so much as the mental part. It's just about staying tough for six minutes for the win.

Kyle Kiss

You look at our local guys and how they did and it just shows how good Lower Bucks and District One wrestling really is.

Brad Silimperi

We always see each other at tournaments but we never get a chance to be in the same gym and meet head-to-head. I think it's great for wrestling in the valley. It should pique interest amongst the younger kids to want to compete at their local high school. I was really pleased with today.

Herschel Sandler

Our vet checked her over, and she's actually now back with the flock and doing fine. The only thing that they noticed on her was where he had obviously tried to grab her while he was wrestling her down. He removed a couple handfuls of wool, right down to the skin.

Mark Shaw

My uncle used to wrestle. I just love wrestling.

Alyssa Vavricka

It definitely will help us. Notre Dame just came out of a dual meet with (state power) Delaware Valley. They're wrestling at a high level. It's something we can learn from and strive to reach that level. I'm sure we will at some point. It takes some time to figure that level out.

Mario Harpel

He's wrestling well. Both those kids (he beat) are pretty good.

Jon Abernathy

Things are going well for us. The kids are calling themselves the 'Five-Week Freaks,' knowing they have to do everything perfect behave, do their school work, eat right and be focused while wrestling. They are a great group to work with. They're having a lot of fun.

Todd Cheney

It would have been pretty bad. If I didn't have (wrestling), I'd be hopeless.

Joey Martin

They're working hard. I think both Darren Cleveland and Darren Dell have a good future in wrestling.

Mike Radke

Coach Gable is the spokesman for wrestling in the United States and there?s no bigger name in the sport than his, ... It was significant for our program to get the kind of exposure we need to present to the wrestling community not only on the local level but all over the country.

Dan Gable

When my family first moved here, I hadn't really heard about the wrestling team and everything they'd done.

Chandler Jones

I was dating a guy that was a huge wrestling fan and I'm embarrassed to say it now but I used to make fun of him for watching it.

Torrie Wilson

He's certainly brought a lot of prestige to the wrestling program here.

Gary Hveem

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

Sure that happens. It's hard to tell a kid to go out there and just lose by a little because it goes against everything you teach. I'll tell them just to give me six minutes of hard wrestling and to kick, scratch and fight and do what you can.

Marty Dillon

He's a highly-skilled kid. He's been wrestling for more than half his life.

Jamie Weaver

The state tournament and seeing him was something I always looked forward to. To me, I wish we could do more to celebrate and acknowledge what he's done for the sport of wrestling in the state. He was a great man there's no doubt about it.

Darin Schreck

When they saw me wrestle, that's when they moved me to defense, ... Wrestling is kind of the same technique you'd use on the defensive line, where you have to stay low and use your hands.

Mike Patterson

It's hard to find wrestling partners for her on the team because of her weight. We don't have a lot of light-weight kids.

Larry Finnicum

We've got a good competitive league. Getting that many to district shows the strength of our wrestling in the Central District.

Doug Short

I've always looked forward to coming up and wrestling for him. He's a legend.

Brian Watson

The quality of wrestling is amazing to see. The women are capable of some of the same things as the males. They not only do it, but do it well. With some colleges giving scholarships, that's given girls some incentive. But I still don't agree with girls wrestling guys.

Jim Speelman

I think the dog has learned some cat behavior. And the lion's learned some dog behavior, like wrestling.

Autumn Nelson

He is quite a powerful guy. Wrestling Sloan helps teach me not just to be defensive on the mat, but to work on ways to take him down.

Will Bringgold

There was a lot going on. I kept looking back and forth. We thought it was kind of funny when the music was playing during the wrestling matches. But it was fun.

Jesse Johnson

The only thing we didn't do was stick to the same way of wrestling. If you were here both nights, you saw the difference.

John Hollman

But I need it (wrestling) to get into college.

Matt Rega

I guess I just wanted to take a year off because I had been [wrestling] since I was six. It's a tough sport, but I kind of regret doing that now.

David Pisarcik

It really opened their eyes to the effort and mental preparation that goes into preparing for tough dual meets. I've seen more intensity in the wrestling room since we've gotten back and more people staying after practice.

Kenny Walker

He wrestled really smart and did exactly what he needed to do. Harry Glenn is a tremendous athlete and a tremendous wrestler. If you make a mistake, he's going to put you on your back. But I think the difference was that Corey has been wrestling a long time, and he didn't make any mistakes.

Wilson Diaz

I'm still healing up, and I figured the difference between being first and second wasn't worth the risk of wrestling another match. I've got big expectations going into district. I want to win a district championship to go into state as a No. 1 seed.

Andy Hill

These guys are some of the best in the country... but (our guys) are not wrestling some immortal being. It's just another person.

Clint Musser

He's a really big part of my wrestling. My dad calls him the godfather of wrestling.

Nick Purdue

I like a women who's got some balls, some strength. As long as I can beat her at arm wrestling, that's fine.

James Hetfield

I believe that professional wrestling is clean and everything else in the world is fixed.

Frank Deford

That is just a milestone to where I want to be. I want to win states. I'm not satisfied yet with the way I'm wrestling.

Jake Kurant

I would think if the Chicago Mafia came to Australia today, they would probably think that it was full of blokes who go around wrestling crocodiles - whether that be Crocodile Dundee or Steve Irwin. But one thing they would not be wondering about is where they could go to get a pizza.

Bryan Brown

Wrestling is so much a mental sport they need to make sure they're not over-estimating or under-estimating anyone. Just stay focused and do the things they do well.

Harvey Starbuck

It started out as some type of verbal argument, ended up in a wrestling or some type of a fight in residence, and Mr. Geffrard ended up pulling out a handgun and shooting, and one of the shots struck the female that's now in the hospital.

Greg Gardner

We knew they were ready to jump on us after that brawl with Santiago. We weren't wrestling as well as I thought we could, so I was concerned. They were ready to jump on us.

Jeff Hickok

He's been wrestling pretty tough. He gets himself in some bad positions but he can get out of them.

Kirby Moses

Kyle Webster kind of got it going with a pin. In wrestling if you can get that momentum going it's hard to slow it down.

James Sheridan

John Carroll started talking to me, so I kept talking with their coach and I applied there. The coach said, 'I want you over here next year.' It's a smaller program with high academics and a good wrestling program. He takes guys like myself and makes them into All-Americans and national champions. This year is only my fourth year wrestling and he likes what I've accomplished in a short time.

Kevin Hipps

Every weekend in football, I'm going to the gym and working hard, ... Every week I'm working hard to get to wrestling.

Erik Hanson

I didn't really think I'd be wrestling him (Lucero) in the finals. We are pretty good friends. I was worried he knew too many of my moves and what I would do.

Eric Brennan

I think this is the year we finally close the deal. We're all wrestling good. I think this is the year we end that choking talk.

Evan Shaw

Everybody's wrestling with rising health care costs and so are we. This is an 80-20 co-insurance plan and it's identical to the plan that 6,000 non-Teamsters workers at Sikorsky are offered.

Ed Steadham

The competition level jumps ten fold. Not only are you wrestling a quality opponent, you have the formula (used to fill out the bracket) and you have to battle the demons inside yourself. You have to overcome a lot of pressure.

Eric Osmer

My approach has been, since they're already focused on it, why bring more attention to it? We certainly have to realize we are wrestling two teams this weekend.

Zeke Jones

He has been great. He has adapted to the collegiate style of wrestling. He listens, learns and does pretty much what he is told.

Eric Larkin
