Well said X-Man! I wrestled about the same time you did and under the same conditions. However, the comparison has to stop there. Problem? I wasn't any good. Ha.

I wish I could say that I "only won 85 matches." Well, not exactly. I am who I am. Even with the few wins I had, I am still glad that I enjoyed the sport then and continue to enjoy it now (I have not missed a state HS finals match in at least 15 years and ALWAYS attend the finals of at least one HS tourney a year.)

Congrats to you and your son and any one brave enough to step on a mat in front of of potential gym full of people and go 'man' vs. 'man'. One on one. That in itself takes a lot of guts.

So . . . I wasn't any good. But, I still fun and learned a ton of good virtues that have served me well to this day.
