Inspiration

Need a little inspiration to help get through the long and tough Wrestling Season?  Need a little help staying motivated during those low times, like after a tough defeat, during the final hours before the big nationals weigh-ins, or during one of our practices?  Need a bit of courage to get over your fear factor?  Then spend a few moments reading about a fellow wrestler named Kyle Maynard.

"I think I've been given a tremendous blessing, being able to try to help people, and I think that's what I'm gonna try to do throughout the rest of my life.""Wrestling is my passion,” says Kyle Maynard. “I love every single teeth-gnashing second of it."
