I was pleased with our performance. We had three in the finals ... Valencia lost to (Tumwater's) Tanner Weeks, who was third in state last year. It was close right up to the end and a great match.

Josh and Nathan both got better as the day went on.

Junior had a great day making it into the regional finals ... that was big.

The kids that we had here today wrestled pretty solid. Tyler Gonzales, I thought that was great for him.

The program is totally performance-based.

Inconsistent performance at a high level -- not because of any one guy or two guys, but as a team. I think [the fast start] gave us a false sense of security, actually. We thought we were already good, as opposed to still working toward being good.
