Wrestling Season Is Here!

We all love to watch Rhett Wrestle! He has started off with a bang! Right now he is 3rd in our 4a division 2 region! As you can see we all love to go support him! I not quite sure if the grandkids like the snacks or watching Rhett the most! Rhett has lost few and is out to pin the 171 lb from Tempe High! Rhett has wrestled twice in the 189 lb class this year even though he weighs 168, and won both of those matches!
Rhett's coaches say he is the strongest kid on the team but he needs to get that in his head to beat Tempe! I not sure who gets the most excited about Rhetts wrestling either Rhett, Walker, Eric our exchange student or Tom! I tell you as a mom it is stressfull to watch your kid wrestle! We have two new coaches this year who remember Walker from his wrestling years for Higley High! Our coaches this year came from Fountain Hills and have been state champions! They are great Coaches, I wish they could of had them all four years! Coach Ford and Coach Trulson!
So far he has had many duals between schools and at the Cactus tournament there were 18 schools and Rhett took second and at the A. J. tournament he took thrird out of 14 schools! He is wrestling in the 171 lb weight class! He wrestled yesterday and it was a four way dual and he won in both weight classes by pins! Rhett will wrestle in the 171 wieght class for regions and state! He is looking forward winning regions and is looking forward to state! He still has four weeks of duals and tournaments before region and state!
Rhett takes after his dad when it comes to his build and strength and is so close to his dad, and i am sure thankful to get his ads genes!
We are excited to see how the year ends up but... sad to say that this is our last of high school wrestling. We will miss it alot!
