Eric and Eddie have really done a lot for Brittany. She has just really blossomed. I thought Eric might not want her on the team but I asked him about Brittany coming out for practice. Soon after he agreed he said that he could put her in some matches.

I'd have to give her dad the credit for Brittany's strength. Brittany helps her father with firewood and chores and that's helped make her strong.

Her brothers started her out in wrestling. They give her advice about moves that are easy. They tell her to stay tough and not to show that she's ever afraid. She's a silent type but don't underestimate her.

Her brothers kept wrestling her at the house. She kept asking her dad if she could wrestle and he would tell her no. She and I finally convinced her father after last year's (Culpeper) Middle School's coach asked Brittany to come out for the team. He thought it would help Brittany in school because she hates school. The only thing she likes about school is gym.

She just thought West Newton needed a swimming pool.

I thought the Dalmatian was perfect.
