First of all, I want everyone to know that excuses in life don't go very far with me but in this case I felt that this deserved a little bit of consideration. I know that the Ellis wrestlers did not have the normal week of preparation before regionals. Half of the team was unable to practice all week due to some skin problems & Younger was also fighting sinus infection. It's sad that this has to happen but that's where mental toughness has to prevail. Mind Over Body!! Good luck to all of the state qualifiers and for those who didn't make it, set your goals and start working towards them NOW!!
