He did a good job of staying in great position the entire match.

Jared was in control of the match the whole time and stuck his guy.

I think in some ways, we made the finals boring for some people. The kids just did a great job. ... Baker, he doesn't like to have to wrestle a girl. It just drives him nuts. He's just got to get beyond that and just finish that out, because he's been ahead of her every time.

You've got to earn everything. Any time you put yourself in a winning position, you didn't get there by being lazy.

A big part of his success has been his parents' commitment. And so many coaches have had an impact. Brandon has helped us become the program that we are, and the program has helped him pursue his goals. He knows we expect the same out of him as anybody, and more, sometimes.

He has helped kids become more committed and dedicated, just by his own commitment. I wish he was a little more vocal, and he is becoming more so, which comes with being a senior. He knows what he has to do to win, and the training that it takes. We have kids that see that and want to join up, and some who think it is cool, but aren't willing to sacrifice. As they mature, they start to add more to their training regimen. That is what separates elite athletes.
