Freestyle is every Tuesday's and Thursday’s and open tournaments on saturday’s.…

My freshman and sophomore years were a bit rough, as I wasn’t big enough to field the lightest weight class.…
An accomplishment I had in my past was only have 5 loses on entire season of baseball last year. In years past we had been very bad.

Last year was so special because it was our last year together, we had been together for 5 years through thick and thin and in the past year we really got it together.…
Unlike other sports you can literally not be good at wrestling if you are not mentally tough. Now what do I mean by the term mentally tough? Mentally tough means you are able to push past what your mind may be telling you or what your body feels like and is telling you. That even when you have 30 yards left to sprint and your brain and body say you can no longer go you push through and keep going. You rise early to go workout instead of staying in to sleep because you are tired.…

This one day I told him if he could teach me how to play baseball and he said yes, If there was a time of my life that I have to write about it would be when I started to play baseball.

During my junior year of high school, one of my friends who wrestled for the school talked me into joining the team. I knew nothing about the sport, but decided to join the team anyway.

Since the time of the Greeks and Romans, wrestlers have competed both on the battle field and at home to see who will win. Many sports advertise challenging competition similar to that of wrestling, but very few can follow through with these promises. This happens because these other sports do not build themselves on set standards such as mental and physical strength and technique. These important parts of wrestling have set it apart for centuries. As a wrestler, I know that these standards make wrestling not only a sport, but a lifestyle.…
The discourse community for wrestling is different from most that I have heard. It could be similar to most high school sports because every high school has their own way of saying things. This Community differs from other communities because if you have never heard a person who wrestles talk about it or have never wrestled yourself, it can get very confusing. Wrestling is different because most terms are not heard in every day language. The moves are different for every team, although every move has a universal name that everyone knows it by.…
