We felt pretty good about ending with Luke at 103. He's a tough guy, he's a tough wrestler and that's the way to cap off the win.

They deserve it. They've been wrestling hard all year. Working hard all year. I'm proud of them. Winning four consecutive team titles is saying something. It's not a testament to me or what I've done. It's the kids, tradition and the program. And that starts way back before, with all our coaches. It's all about tradition. Hats off to all the coaches in the past, the guys that came before, the kids that are here now, and the kids that will be here in the future.

If you perform and get out, you're sitting pretty well. The odds of ending up on the podium at the state meet have gone way up.

We didn't have a storybook ending in mind, but this is pretty close.

I have some pretty mixed feelings about ending my tenure here. I've had as enjoyable a life as anybody could have. Teaching and horses are my passion. Combining them makes me a lucky person.

I resent them suggesting [ending service] in a low-income area. I'm pretty sure this isn't the only area where kids are throwing stuff at the bus.
