I don't usually make a lot of stink about Cody except posting videos, but I just wanted to congratulate him for making the National Team in all 3 styles (top 3 at Nationals in Folkstyle, Freestyle and Greco)and making 2nd team for the Future Olympians for the 4th year in a row. He ended up 2nd in Folkstyle and Greco and 3rd in Freestyle. In Freestyle and Greco Cody has placed every year in both styles since he was a first year intermediate. He had a great year and just wanted to give him props. This coming from a kid who did not win A SINGLE MATCH the first 2 years he wrestled. Tell your kids hard work pays off and the more you put into it the more you get out. I never give him enough props for the work and dedication he puts into this sport. For his fans that do like to watch his videos below are some highlights from this past year:
Cody finished out the season making the National Team in all 3 styles (placing in the top 3 Nationally) 2nd in Fokstyle, 2nd in Greco, 3rd in Freestyle.

Mason has won over 40 National Titles-This was in the State Finals and was a very well executed match by Cody with great leg attacks. Great win for years of hard work.

This was for a true second and Cody stepped up and impressed me with his relentless scoring. I also got a yellow card.

I’ll never be mad for consistently trying to score with throws though.
