That win just fired me up for the rest of the weekend. This whole experience was great. The atmosphere is great and we wrestled well. We brought eight guys down here and seven earned medals.

If I meet him next week, it's a whole different match because it will be for the team state title. He's a great wrestler and anything could happen next week, so I just have to prepare my best for all the guys I might wrestle.

My stomach has responded well to rest over the weekend, although I've still got to be careful over the next few days not to over-do it.

That was a gritty win. After a long weekend and with two starters out, they could have gone through the motions. But they didn't, and this is something that we can build on.

Getting swept at Virginia, that's not a good thing. After (that) weekend, we kind of took it upon ourselves not to let it happen again. It worked out for us in the long run.

It took a lot of pressure off. Tonight we learned from last weekend. You don't want to come out in the first game and be kind of sluggish.
