avoid bonus both close giving matches points
We just have to get bonus in the matches that we are favored and avoid giving up points in the matches that they are favored. Both matches are going to be close so every point is going to matter.
achievement finished kids positive proud three top
We finished in the top 10, so that is a real positive to take away from this season. To have three All-Americans is a real accomplishment. The kids battled hard; I'm really proud of them.
bit gym help knowing room wrestling
I think just being a little bit more comfortable with the surroundings. Just knowing where the gym is, where the wrestling room is, can help us down the road.
adjustment caliber four match matches next ready step three tough
I think that's the other adjustment as a freshman, you have a tough match and you get up for that match and then the next three or four matches you don't have that caliber of competition. In college, any match you step on the match you, always need to be ready to go.

Some matches we need to win are 33 and 57, 65, 87, 97 and heavyweight. Those are some matches that we're capable of winning if we wrestle how we should.

came five good kids loss note puts small somber urgency win wrestle
When we came back, we had a good talk. It's disappointing to get a loss when you have five kids win and five kids lose. It puts a negative, somber note on the weekend. We're a good team, and we didn't wrestle as well as we should have. We need to wrestle with a sense of urgency and make the small adjustments.

anytime beaten capable certainly change guy match outcome overlook past risk
Anytime you've beaten a guy before, you're certainly capable of doing it again. The only risk is to overlook him. That can change the outcome of a match. We have to not look past a match because we've beaten someone before.
instead kids people surprise team
That's why we really felt, if the other two kids could get to nationals, we could surprise some people and as a team do some things. Now, instead of going with 10, we'll have to do it with eight.
