Personal Statement

I started wrestling my freshman year and didn't do so good, I went 2-7 on JV. But then I decided to not join track and dedicate my off-season to wrestling. I joined a club, went to tournaments, clinics, duals and a camp, and this all payed off for my sophomore season as I easily got on Varsity and improved my record to 22-10. My sophomore season ended and I immediately joined a club the very next day.I have went to duals and 16 tournaments and counting, 2 camps plus I go to a club and train at home. I love wrestling very much and want to continue wrestling in college and even after college. I have a good work ethic and love to wrestle.
