victory against #4 McClintock of Wartburg. Thoughts about coming
from 7th seed to 3rd place: |
"It was good: I had a set
back in the first round. I knew I had to wrestle back. I feels
really good. I've been put out of this tournament two years
in a row, so this year I finally capitalized on it."

in any sport from his school, on how the tournament went for
him: |
"Sweet and sour. I don't
know it was a little bittersweet but it's just...it was tough
battling back through; the story of my life battling back to
