Points are hard to come by. Four-nothing is a pretty good lead, but with five minutes left to go, you just can't sit there and not wrestle.

It was pretty close, but it doesn't matter. I didn't get it. All I can do now is get ready for next week.

It's not good enough. There are basically two groups of people, champions and everybody else. I didn't deserve to win. I have to work harder.

I'm really can't put into words how I feel right now. Basically, all I've done this year is to keep working hard and to try to get better every time I wrestled.

I can't really describe it. I just always knew I could win.

I truly felt from the first day of practice that I could win a state title. You have to believe or it doesn't happen.
