There's one other thing I wanted to add...

In most schools, wrestling rarely gets the support of other sports. To have people who are willing to put up with the workload, the schedule, the wrestlers, and all the other crap that goes into this sport deserves the best treatment possible. I wouldn't even want to think about where we'd be without dedicated young ladies to wash our mats, keep our stats, videotape, carry the kit, do the laundry, get water, run errands and whatever other duties we as coaches add to their job description. I can't even imagine what it would be like to try and run our program without them.
