XCard Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I give a big thumbs up for chasing matches, was quite proud that my boy wanted the big matches all of last year. Everyone starts 0-0 each week of the Post Season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosoccermomhere Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Just let the kids wrestle. We have had 15 matches so far this year and 6 were ff and most of those teams had kids at that weight. You don't ever dodge a match. Heck you can be 0-40 going into sectionals and earn your #1 ssed for regionals and so on. You should always want to wrestle the good kids. A good example is, Tommy's freshman year he was undefeated going into the finals match at semi state. He ended up losing to Nathan Boston 1-0. He came off the mat with a big grin. His coach says," Tommy, why are you so happy, you do know that you just lost, right?" Tommy responds with, " yep and that was fun!" Let the kids go out there and have fun. It's ok to lose. These kids are learning a lot more than wrestling from this sport. Personally I would rather my kids learn that anything can happen if you just go out there and try instead of your not good enought so why bother going out there.

Brewer looked good considering he's been sick for 6 weeks and carson was going after him the whole match. momfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't a smaller school schedule big schools during the regular season even though they won't compete come state finals? Ohio does this all the time. You think St. Paris Graham just sends kids to wrestle the small schools? They send them out to get the best competition. Class wrestling has nothing to do with this topic at all. Point your car east and don't stop until you're in Ohio. We don't want it. tangarrray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pointing out the fact that this topic has nothing to do with class wrestling...I’ve said enough on the matter. No more distracting from the original post by me.

Indeed, it does. But this is not the thread for such a discussion. This is the last I'll say on the matter in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
