It is official. Anson Worrell is going to Drexel. We sent in the housing deposit and scheduled vacation time in September. Forgive me, but I can't end this post without a few comments. When I called Coach Jimmy May with the bad news, I told him that he changed my son's life. Before he approached me in the bleachers at the Husky Invitational and expressed interest in my son, Anson was going to attend Johnson County Community College. At the time, all that he had on his wrestling resumé was a second place finish at the Johnson County Classic. Really, not much to get excited about. After the State tournament, it was Coach May that encouraged me to send Anson to the High School Senior Nationals because he "earned it" and he "wanted my son to get all of the exposure that he could get." Ironically, that is where Drexel became interested. I have nothing but respect for the man. Thanks for bearing with the monologue. I have to say that it is funny to see that this "news" was posted here over a month ago.
