Our guys picked it up and wrestled a lot more competitive the last three weeks.

I think our division of the OCC will be stronger, so it's going to be tough to compete for a league title next year.

In Pat's younger years, he was sporadic and he often would make the wrong moves at the wrong times to put himself in a bad position. Experience is one of the best teachers and Pat is a much wiser wrestler these days. He has become a very good technician and he makes much better decisions. Pat is now a much more consistent wrestler from one match to the next.

It's going to take a lot of hard work, but I'm confident that we can improve next year.

Beating Watkins Memorial was probably our main highlight because they were ranked second in the Division II (area coaches poll) at the time.

Our guys have to be consistent and wrestle one of their better tournaments to have a chance of making it to state. We'll need to win the close ones. To do that, we must limit our mistakes and take advantage when an opponent makes an error.
