If the intensity that is in the Southmont wrestling room now is "SOFT" compared to the past, that had to be a very hostile environment. I have sat in on Souths practices this season and having wrestled in the region back in the day, I think I have a good idea of HARD practices and Hard coaches, there is nothing soft about the room or the coach. Having said that, once trained heart and desire to win must come from within the competitor. Lots of youth, talented youth, transitioning into next level.
