sports

coming out of high school i thought i was the best i won our traditional state tournament and was ranked 25th in the nation. I thought college youd be just like high school, but I was wrong. everyone in college is good and is getting better. for our first practice i thought id be in pre good shape and be able to hold my own but for the first practice i got beat up and was extremly tired. that night i came home and asked myself "why do i get out of possition so much?, Why am i so tired?, and why do you wrestle or why do you want too?" that for the last 2 weeks pratices have been a lot better i'm in better shape and the questions i ask myself are more like "what if i do this, or that and what will he do." Coach tj miller the head coaches son was the one who recruited me here and we talk everyday he alwasy tells me to keep my head up even when he beats the crap out of me at practice and it helps me stay possitive and try harder and question my limits. when i get done with practice everyday i always ask myself "did you work hard enough today, did someone work harder then you, will the work ethic you came in with today win you a national title?" these questions i ask myself everyday i dont have the answers for them yet cause i ask them everyday so the answers change. they help me so much in tricking my mind into going harder and to not be tired.

college

college has been a huge change comin from a small school and growing up knowing everybody. its been fun for the first week though and i've made lots of new friends in the same sport im in and people that arnt. balancing sports and school is gunna be tough for awhile but once a get a system ill be able to manage it all. my roomate noah is out for the same sport as me so we are managing our time together and starting to get a system going. we have wrestling practice 6 times a week now for pre season workouts so we all get in shape and its been hell. we wrestle hard and lift everyday and when your out of shape it sucks. Im behind a national runner up this year so my workouts conisists of working out with him and the national champ at the weight below me so i get beat up on but i get better everyday. the other freshman wrestlers are all in the same situation but we all hang out and talk about practice everday our goal is to be the dynasty class we want to win 4 national titles in a row so were alll training to achieve that goal.
