To me it was a weird feeling knowing that 4 years short years ago, I walked into a wrestling room with 1 real year of wrestling experience, and accomplishing my goal of qualifying for state, becoming a league champion, and facing some of the toughest wrestlers in the state every year and actually competing and not being a fish. I sat in the middle of our wreslting mat and looked around and thought about it, it was kinda depressing and kinda made me think about what I have to do now. My favorite memory is one that during my freshman year, I was mouthing off to some Seniors and they took off my shorts and T-shirt and left me in nothing but my wrestling shoes and boxers and threw me out into the girls' basketball practice....ahh the embarassment and the memories, I will miss it when it ends........I hope it's not this weekend
