Back in Season!

I wish I could explain the fire that lights under Blake when he hits the wrestling mat. He has found his sport and it shows! Here's is a post from the DNJ from yesterday's county duals.

I am amazed at his hard work. I really wondered if he could still stand strong as a freshman-the youngest instead of the oldest like last year. He is proving well. So far he has lost 1 and won 12 matches this season. It is so fun to watch. I have been so pumped for him. Wow what a day we had yesterday at the county duals. Our school hosted the duals for the first time ever. Our little 1 A school held tight and opened some eyes throughout the county when we beat some huge schools like riverdale and Lavergne and almost beat some others. We don't even have enough team mates to fill all our weight classes which makes us a negative 6 points each weight class unfilled before the matches even start. We still need to fill two weight classes. We wrestled teams that are 6A here in the county and have more wrestlers than they know what to do with! We held strong and did so well only loosing to Oakland by 2 points and blackman 11 points. I am so proud of our litle team and can't wait to watch them grow! Blake wrestles on the same team with Parker and Joseph P. They rocked the house yesterday too! It makes it more fun to wrestle with people you love to be around!
