Btw, both of my brothers, Shea the Senior and Brennan the Sophomore qualified for state again Saturday. Shea got 2nd at districts (the returning runner-up and ranked #2/3 guy at 126 moved up to his weight unexpectedly and he beat us in a close match. The Sophomore, Brennan, got 1st and is on an absolute roll right now... I'm pretty sure he has pinned his last 16 or 17 opponents...just doing crazy-good right now. They wrestle at state Thursday...The Senior placed 7th as a Sophomore and 4th as a Junior, the Sophomore placed 6th as a Freshman and almost had the upset of the tournament vs. an upperclassman who hadn't even wrestled a full match coming into the match with him. I posted the youtube clip of that one a few pages ago. Anyways, looking to build from that this year. If you get 1st at districts, you get a guy who got 2nd from another district and vice-versa... Ironically, the district runner-up bro, Shea, has the better first round draw. My youngest bro's first round draw is pretty tough...if he gets past him, I feel like things are looking ok for him to get to the finals. We will see, I guess.

That's a good story.

In some ways I wish I'd had older brothers to help and push me, but as it is I was the oldest of this generation so I guess I set the bar. The younger boys definitely broke it,mincliding a qualifier this year. The next batch has the youth room full and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in a few years when this group starts through.

The sports anxiety is a tough thing to understand but I know it's real. We had a senior when I was a freshman that could sidestroke anyone in our room, including a state champ....but before meets he would vomit and wouldn't be able to get air on the mat....he ran out of gas and eventually quit....said it was just too stressful. He had the talent to have been great but that stuff just shut him down when the strap went on his ankle.

It was so frustrating...I'd be able to go balls to the wall for 2 hours every night in practice and not give up a single point the entire practice and not be winded...then during competition, if the match lasted to the 3rd period, I'd basically be just trying to hold on... Felt like my legs had cinder blocks chained to them...the noise, it sounded like how the outside of the public swimming pool sounds when you are swimming under water...only voice I could hear clearly was my dad's. It was awful...vomited publicly and I gave up a lot of big leads. I think it was a combination of not really liking performing in front of a group of people combined with a fear of failure, more specifically failing my dad. Wrestling parents need to be careful how much pressure they put on their kids from a young age, for that seed can be planted soon.

The one thing that used to just piss me right the hell off would be when someone would say after the match, "you lost because you didn't want it! The other guy wanted it more than you and you WANTED to lose! You wrestled to lose!" I'd think to myself, "BULLSHIT!!! I want to win more than anything!!! If I didn't, I wouldn't stress myself out the way I do!!!" No one really understood what was going on with me back then... They always blamed it on asthma. Nope...wasn't asthma...it was 100% anxiety. Some people don't realize how something can affect you mentally to the point where you are actually physically handicapped from it. So frustrating.

My biggest fear was that the two youngest brothers would experience it. They both have their occasional bouts with it, but not near the extent that I did...which I couldn't feel happier about.

Keep me posted on here about how your program is doing! Sounds like you've got something good in the works!!

I caught some last night. Glad to see the Hawks moving toward first place but Penn State, damn. That 149 of theirs with another stick. They keep adding bonus points, cant catch 'em.

Retherford is freaking amazing. And to think Aaron Pico, a guy who doesnt even wrestle in college at 19 years old beat Retherford 4 times at opens last year!!!! CRAZY! Went straight to the international scene, to my understanding. There are some crazy gifted wrestlers in this world.

My bracket is/was totally ****ed. Not a Mizzou fan but felt bad for Butler and Manley.
