Their strength was where our strength was. We're used to winning in that 130-152 range and we didn't win a single match there. There were some real close matches but that really hurt.

That is going to be a very competitive class...It's loaded with four or five of the top ten teams.

Even though the team match was over, it didn't diminish the excitement. This had some pretty big ramifications for those two kids. We knew the winner would likely be the number one seed.

Law is an up and coming program. They filled a lot of holes from last year.

We felt like he was as good as the number one and two seeds going in. He went through the number two but number one didn't make to the final. Justin had a great tournament.

Derek lost to the eventual champion (Jonathan Torres of Windham) in overtime. That match could have gone either way. He's still just a sophomore and all this was a great experience for him.

I got a chance to talk to the Shelton coach before the match and we knew it would be a good one. Fish is only a sophomore but he is a very gifted wrestler.

We were losing the whole time and we were down around 17 points heading into the final round. That's a lot of points when you only get four points for a win.
