Lisle and Coal City Tonight

Should be two good match ups tonight. We lost pretty handedly last year when 4 of our wrestlers decided to not make weight. It was ugly. Hopefully tonight we can avenge those losses. We haven't beaten Lisle since the 2006-07 season so it would be very nice to get a win against a perennial quality program. The boys are working hard and really starting to grasp the importance of drilling technique. It is a hard transition for some. In lower level wrestling sometimes a wrestler can be successful just because of their athleticism. This is not usually the case in high school. I think that where ever a kid comes from (club or middle school program) there is a learning curve to high school wrestling. We are extremely young so we have a bit more learning to do that I'd like, but the nice thing is, is that we are very quick learners.
Come out and see us tonight at Lisle if the weather isn't bad. It would be nice to see a purple crowed as we try to improve to 7-0.
