“The ones that wrestled did well. We took third as a team, and I was pleased with that.”
Dan Roton
“We were thrilled to host it. I'm happy that we took third and we wrestled the best we could.”
Roger Bubel
“They wrestled a very good match. Missouri is a very good team, and they had to wrestle to win.”
Bobby Douglas
“Bonus points, that's what it comes down to. Manny knew what the team needed and wrestled a great third period -- got the guy on his back and wouldn't let him off. Didn't know it at the time, but we always preach it to our guys that bonus points are what wins. And when it ended up five matches a piece, that was the difference maker.”
Joe Russell
“It took longer to weigh in than to wrestle. The other teams were just so small.”
Kerry Benthin
“Joe had the opportunity to wrestle at 189, but for the sake of the team he wrestled at 215 so a teammate could wrestle in the region. He could have had an easier time qualifying for the state at 189, but you have to admire someone who puts their teammates first.”
Chris Adams
“Once you've wrestled, everything else in life is easy.”
