I'm excited, but I know I still have work to do. It's been my goal to be state champion, nothing less.

All the hard work is paying off. I'm happy for Kyle, Andrew, Justin and Chris because they're all good guys. All of us working together has made us better. It's awesome to have us all go down there and experience it together.

To do what we did with the number of guys we did was exceptional. That's a reflection of our coaches and them getting us ready to wrestle and getting us better all year long.

I had an awesome time. I was nervous because I've never done any type of construction work -- but it felt great to be outside, working on something as tangible as a house.

It's really frustrating. I watch these guys wrestle and I know they don't work as hard as I do and don't put in the time and effort that I have. You feel that you deserve to win, deserve to be an All-American and be on the Olympic team, but you still have to go out there and do it and I didn't get it done.

We've got a group that works well together. We've got some work to do in some areas, but to be 10-1 and 5-0 in the conference, I feel good about the potential of this team.
