The Underdog
Every local sports section highlights the best athletics. Yes, these athletes are the best and should be given the applause and honors. But how did they get there? For wrestling, is it all about where they go to school, the level of skill on the team, and what partner they have while practicing?
The talented, high school, wrestling, athletic that never quits even when he comes from a team with no record, and a team never invited to Eastern States or Sectionals tournaments we also applaud! These wrestles stay with their school team and keeps on persevering, never quitting, even though they have no challenging partners during practice and no challenging matches during the season. It is more of a phenomenal to remain a skilled wrestler as the underdog? In conclusion, a wrestler coming from that situation and then placing 3rd, 4th, 5th or even 6th in sectional championship should be very proud!! We all applaud them!
