anybody class guys hardest national run season somebody time tough tournament wants weight worked
I feel like I can go with anybody in the country, but at the same time there's so many tough guys in the weight class that anything can happen; it's just who worked the hardest during the season and who wants it the most in the national tournament. Somebody could run through the (NCAA) tournament killing everybody, but I don't think that's going to happen.
confidence gone people worked worry
I've worked pretty (darn) hard, so I'm going to have confidence going in. I don't worry about what other people think. They've never been in my situation, they've never gone through things I've gone through.
hard hard-work improve practice single smart trying work
Hard work isn't the whole thing either. It's working hard, but working smart at the same time, going to every single practice trying to improve on something.
felt focused nice relaxed round slow
I felt pretty relaxed and pretty focused at the same time. The first round I got off to a slow start, so it was nice to get that out of my system.
continue effort extra ncaa realize starting time
I realize I'm right there with everyone else, but at the same time I need a little extra effort to get those wins. I think they're starting to come now and they'll continue at the NCAA Championships.
