Just the fact that the two (duals) that we lost came down to the last two matches and being right in it - that was positive for us.
If we're not (peaking), we are really darn close. I hope we are just really darn close. I don't want to peak just yet. I would like to see us peak in a couple more weeks when we are at regions.
We went out there and wrestled hard. We were right in there in all our matches.
I was expecting a little better outcome. The intensity and fighting was there, but a couple inexperienced mistakes cost us.
He wrestled really well. He went 2-2 for the day.
Overall we looked pretty sharp. It is probably the best that we wrestled all year - which is a good sign. We did pick up our first conference win in four years against Sioux Falls O'Gorman. That was a big confidence builder.
Our team is more of a tournament team instead of a dual team and I expect us to do a lot better (today). Our guys get up pretty well for tournaments. We are looking forward to it just as long we don't make inexperienced moves.
It was surprising to see how well, technically, we looked. I knew we always fought hard but I was surprised with how technically sound we looked this weekend.
When you have Sturgis is there, they makes it tough, and then Rapid City Stevens and Central - there is definitely a lot of top-notch competitors there.
It turned out pretty good. We knew we could take two to four guys. The fact that we are actually taking four guys to state is pretty good.
