He has wrestled for only 2 years (State Qualifier in 2009-2010) and is 15-4 (lost to Jones of North and Hall of Prep) and is ranked at 215...wrestling definitely helps with improving other sport skills!!! |

The first part is what a football/basketball coach once told me...his football teams are dominated by athletes who wrestle, but he refuses to see the forest from the trees.
