I have been following Matt's progress since the first time I saw him wrestle as a sophomore in high school. His progress as a wrestler has been fun to watch. It is incredible achievement to win a national title but especially for a wrestler who did not start wrestling until his high school years. What a great story of perseverance. Matt always had the athletic ability but he had to catch up with many of his peers who had years of wrestling experience over him. His very hard work and love of wrestling carried him to this high level of achievement. Congratulations, Matt and good luck in your future endeavors which I believe will include coaching wrestling at some level.
