I actually feel like a lot of good things are happening off the mat.
This weekend was high emotion, and that breeds tension.
I saw kids that were finished staying to watch placement matches. Many of these kids weren’t from the same school, club, region or semi-state. I saw kids that don’t know each other talk and interact and support each other. I saw parents hug their kids and tell them how proud they were. I saw coaches tell a kid how much they’ve grown.
I would argue there is more of that than the opposite. Bad things get a lot of attention, but I think we should focus on all of the good stuff instead.
The future is bright in Indiana for wrestling. This tournament seems to get tougher every year, and that’s awesome.
