We came out sluggish. I don't know why. It might have been because we had a long time between weigh-in and when we were supposed to wrestle.

(Holmes) was supposed to be the best in the state last year, and Josh got the best of him. He is going to be gunning for Josh this year.

In all three of them, the style is pretty much the same. But Josh is more laid-back, and you have to motivate him. Blaine, you really have to coax, but that's just maturity with him. But take those two out of the lineup, and it puts a big dent in us.

I can't say enough about this group. They're a special group, and most of them will be back next season.

I told them to get it in gear. Even in the end they looked sluggish.

We wrestled better than we did in the first. We got after the guys, and they wanted to get to the state final.
