When this came up of not shaking hands when my son was wrestling for CP I didn't agree with it then. But as I watched over the years and seen the other teams doing it I understood why. In almost halve of the matches I watched the sincerity in the handshake isn't there so if that is your example of respect I don't want my kid to have it. To me respect could be a varsity player giving his spot up to a fellow team mate who as worked just as hard as you for 4 years but couldn't make the starting lineup. I seen this senior give another senior his spot so that he could wrestle one varsity match. To me that showing respect for later in life. Thank you Coach Vlink and all his ast. coaches you have made us proud.
