I have to do a little bragging here. My son who is in 10th grade in highschool won the 140 lb. State Championship in wrestling this past Saturday. He ended up with a 35-2 record on the season. Yup I am a very proud father.









Way to go Mitchell!!!

I still remember the movie Vision Quest, with Matthew Modine.

Makes you appreciate what goes into wrestling as a sport.

Well done, Mitchell!

Congrats, from one former champ to another. Speaking from past experience, that is a very remarkable feat.... Your son should be proud....

I noticed the spelling - YZ huh?

You should be very proud - do you have one of those bumper stickers

"I'm a proud father" ?

Good news is always nice to hear - Congrats

He was in the Kansas State tournament. Last year as a freshman he placed fourth in the same weight, but was about 8-10 pounds under weight. The reason he wrestled up was that he had 2 State Champion Seniors in the weights he wanted to wrestle last year. Thanks everyone . I almost tear up just thinking about it still. I have 2 brothers who were State Champions, I placed 3rd three years in a row so You may understand just how proud I am that he did something I was unable to do. Thanks again.

I dont know why that second one decided to be giant. I am obviously not the computer genius jimbo is. Thanks jimbo. Yup its still pretty cool.

We tell him he has alien hands. Long fingers and his thumbs are almost as long as his middle fingers. I am sure it actually helps with his wrestling because of the grip he can get.:wah:

Yup sober. When he came off the mat he ran to the side boards where I was watching and jumped into my arms. I lost it a bit and too be honest just thinking about it here writing this I am tearing up.

He's a handsome fella!!

Thanks so much for sharing...awesome! Congrats to you and him again:-6
