They have both been wrestling all summer, getting the matches, and getting to tournaments like Southeast Regionals and they wrestled a lot of Greco and freestyle in the offseason. I'm hoping this year they'll take another step in that right direction. We also have about four or five new girls that are just starting. The numbers are growing which is pointing the right direction."

The two girls that are returning that went to regionals last year is Kylie and and Ariana. Those are the two girls and they're coming to work this year. They told me straight to my face. They're like, 'Hey, we're going to states.'“
