I teach on that (East) side of the district and I know a lot of the East wrestlers. It isn't fun to have to compete against that team.

We've been putting in freshman Josh Homer in at a couple of different weights, and he's been coming up with some big wins for us. He's really been wrestling well. He always battles hard in every match, and works hard in the room. He's done a great job for us, despite us moving him around so much.

Getting those kinds of matches like Joe had is important, and made the day all the more worthwhile. We're not going to duck guys like Letts. You have to wrestle the best competition you can. It gets you ready for the post-season. I think Joe sees he's going to have to open it up more if he wants to beat the top guys.

Rob has not been a year-round wrestler like most of the other kids who make it out here. He is most successful when he's leading and scoring points; when he falls behind he sometimes does things out of his game plan in an effort to score more points.

We wrestled really well. Our kids never gave up. Wanting to be here is the biggest thing this time of year and our kids did a good job with that.

We were under the gun. Upper Perk is an unbelievably talented team. They have barely any weaknesses. We knew it was an uphill battle and I liked how our kids battled. It was a great experience for us.
