My son started wrestling this year on his middle school wrestling team. They traveled to Manhattan, Kansas for the Little Apple Grapple.
He's never wrestled before, but I encouraged him to give it a shot because I think the best athletes expose themselves to a lot of sports.
He did pretty good, as far as I'm concerned ( I'm a bit biased of course ).
He won his first match ( by pin in the first of three rounds ), but lost his second two to some pretty experienced wrestlers. Regardless, he didn't get pinned and never gave up.
Here's the video of his first match. He's the one in the blue singlet without the stripes on the side. Or a link if you prefer it that way.
