All-American National Wrestler


My brother is an all American wrestler! That was his goal this year was to get in the top 8 for the nation in Div II college wrestling. Well he actually placed 5th in the nation. I am so proud of him. He set his goal and stuck to it. He has improved so much in the last few months, and just keeps pushing himself to improve. First of all, it is hard to compete at the collegiate level, but to also excel at a sport (which is like a full time job) and college at the same time and be able to succeed at both is an accomplishment. I think sometimes, since he is the baby, he compares himself to us older kids, but he has defiantly accomplished some things none of us have. All of that time wrestling when he was a kid and in practise has paid off.

He is also a great uncle to Noah:)
