As you know, the sport of choice in my house is wrestling with all three of my boys. Well, last Saturday our oldest was in a district league tournament with his high school, of which the top 4 qualifiers in each weight class would be eligible to move forward to this Saturday's Regional wrestling tournament.
It was a long day of sitting on school bleachers cheering on some really tough matches and I am happy to report "D" took 3rd place overall and will be advancing to the next round. 
He is absolutely ecstatic as this is his first year wrestling with this high school team and to make it through qualifiers as a sophomore, I guess it's a really good thing (and hard to do-unless you are good). We are so incredibly proud of him and the hard work he has done to make it this far!
So now we are gearing up for Saturday's Regional Tournament and are praying for his to finish in the top 4 for his weight class, and then he will have the privilege of moving onto the Washington State Wrestling Finals the following weekend at the Tacoma Dome!

Good job, D!
Hi! I came to you from Imagine Alyzabeth. My boys (15 and 17) are also wrestlers!! The oldest is a senior and just became conference champion for the 3rd year in a row. He goes to the regionals this weekend and we hope he makes it to the states. The youngest did okay - his first year so we were very happy with him.
Great job!!!
