I have not posted on this forum for a long time but a feel the need to at this time after watching my son finish his high school wrestling career this past weekend.
He has taken my family on a great ride these last four years and has gone from a kid with some "potential" to a kid that became very hard to beat. He has had a great coaching staff his whole career but the last four years in high school I can't think of a better group of coaches I would rather have in his corner then the ones he had. GREAT JOB men!!!
He knows this but I want to embarrass him a little.
Your family is very proud of the way you dedicated yourself to your team and your goals. We know it didn't end the way you wanted it to but you made us all VERY proud.
He could not have had the success he had without coach Ross, coach Phillips, coach Heincker, coach Malloy, coach Pyle and of course the Derby medical staff who helped keep him on the mat for more than 170 varsity matches. A special thanks goes out to Dr. Waters for his help this past weekend at the state tournament.
Wrestling is a tough sport done by tough people. You fit right in son...
GREAT High School career Brady!!!
