Wrestling
January 6, 2022
Craig Dickinson – wrestling head coach
“Wrestling is a complete sport. It requires strength, balance, agility, conditioning, and it requires the athletes to be explosive and powerful. We’ve been working to get everyone into wrestling shape and on technique so we are ready for competition. We want to get as many kids [as possible] past districts and we want them to come home with state medals.”
Nick Hibbard – junior
“Wrestling is the basis of my work ethic. You have to come into the wrestling room, lead, work hard and leave it all out on the mat. It’s all about the work you put in. Sometimes you go out there and get put on your back in front of everyone. It’s about being humble—you can’t blame it on other people. It’s your fault if you don’t succeed.”
