Gilmore's Take

     The Wrestling Bees took it on the chin tonight against NOC rival North Royalton, and Battle of 18 rival Highland.  This was a very humbling tri-match tonight after seeing so much success in the last several years.  With so many new faces in the line-up, there were many of our wrestlers not really knowing what to expect.  After tonights matches many wrestlers now understand what we have been trying to teach during our 1st weeks of practice.  Looking on the bright side, it is not until someone realizes their mistakes that they can improve on them.  I know that there are many hungry wrestlers on the team that want to succeed.  Sometimes a loss is not always a bad thing.  Even though it hurts at the time, if you can learn from a loss and improve from it, then it was worth it.  Our goal is to improve every week and to peak at the end of the season.  No one likes to lose, especially me, but now we know where to focus and we will become a better team beacause of it.
      We had two wrestler's go 2-0 on the day, in Ryan Hornack and Matt Hammer.  Also winning for the Bees today were JJ Koeing, Josh Quesenberry, Trevante Morman, Mike Kopacz, and James Duke.  
       It is time to do work.   "The will to win is not nearly as important as the will to prepare to win"
