I love to see a child win or lose, take his/her strap off their leg and place it back at their feet, hold their head up and shake the opponents hand and then the ref's and then go over to the opposing coach/coaches and shake their hands and walk off with pride knowing they did their best. There are far more of these tyes of wrestlers than the poor sports. We as coaches, refs and parents must do more to help this continue to be the norm.

Also, I think this is an appropriate place to say I don't think anyone has done more for the wrestling community and their families this year than Mr. Michael Furches. He is truly the "Minister of Wrestling" Great job Mr. Furches. I have profound respect for you.
