We have overcome injuries and sicknesses and wrestled real well at the state tournament. It's been a long season but we'll remained focused.
I'm really proud of him. Mike just kept coming back for his team. He worked harder than anyone in the state and he's a state champion, no one can take that away from him.
I'm excited. I'm also proud of the guys who weren't able to qualify. We had a day where we beat guys we lost to earlier this year. The whole team wrestled well.
Jeff wrestled smart, solid and tough. He was very consistent. He deserved this title; he has put in the time and work. I'm very proud of him.
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.
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.
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.
We're pretty excited about Justin. He made the medal round in a tough bracket. Of course, he wanted to finish higher, but this give him experience for next year and that is priceless.
We've been working hard in preparation for districts. This is when the big dogs get knocked off.
