Well Said X. Last year I had a similar situation with my son. In a 6 team dual, my son was asked to wrestle up a weight on the last match of the day. He said he really didn't want to. He asked what I thought, I said he should look at it as an opportunity. The wrestler was on the same team as a 2 time state champ, when their coach said to our coach, "sure we will go up and wrestle that weight." Their coach asked, "Are you sure? This kid gives the champ all he can handle in practice." We pinned the kid in the second period. OPPORTUNITY. I think it just depends on the situation.
