fire normally tried turn
It was a wake-up call. I was too tentative and didn't fire out like I normally do. I tried to turn it on at the end, but it was too late.
coaches counting draw knew listen seconds thinking
I wasn't counting the seconds on the clock; I just knew I couldn't let him get the takedown. To be honest, I wasn't thinking about much of anything. I just listen to what the coaches tell me. I usually just draw blanks.
thrilled
We were thrilled for her. It was awesome.
almost coach good knows mom
It's coach Fox's call. He knows me almost as good as my mom (Julie Ruiz) does.
coach state
Coach (Todd Fox) told me that state would be a whole new world. Oh, boy, was he right.
bench bother bulk college cutting guess instead pounds press weighed weight wrestle
If I wrestle in college it will be as a heavyweight and I'll have to bulk up a whole lot more. In a way, it sucks, but it wouldn't bother me. I'll be able to chow down instead of cutting weight constantly. I've weighed as much as 250 pounds and that's when I maxed out on the bench press at 485 pounds. So I guess being at heavyweight would be all right.
